If you went to any hockey game over the last week, more then likely you witnessed a shootout. The Sarnia Sting had two shootouts this week, winning one against Owen Sound on Wednesday, while dropping another to Oshawa.  Also on Wednesday, if you remember our feature story, the Sarnia Legionnaires beat LaSalle in a shootout as well. And even the Petrolia Squires won this weekend in a shootout. Our local teams keeping it close. The local fans surely appreciate it.

 

Would like to send a congratulations to the St. Clair girls Senior Basketball team, who made it to the finals of OFSAA AA Basketball. They finished second after losing to St. Basil 43-33, but a very strong showing.

 

Sarniasports will be covering the LCCVI Lancers against the SCITS Blue Bombers in Boys LSSAA hockey action from the Sarnia Arena. I'll be there live, and you can following the action live on twitter @Sarniasports. The Lancers are currently on top of the standings in first with a 2-0-1 record, while the Blue Bombers are 0-1-0 on the season. SCITS has only played one game due to a make up game needed against St. Patrick's from week one. LCCVI is coming off a 1-1 tie with Northern in the closest game of the season. SCITS is coming off a 6-0 loss to St. Christopher's.

 

Mooretown and Wallaceburg are also in action facing off against each other in Junior C hockey. Wallaceburg current sits first in the North Division with a 17-3-1 record, while Mooretown is in second in the North with a 10-9-2 record. The Flags could use a win here to start to close the gap, but they'll be in tough against the Lakers. Puck drops in Wallaceburg at 7:30

 

Also the Alvinston Flyers are on the road in Wheatley. Puck drop is 7:30 as well.
