minute break before the next game, the boys took to the
field facing Waterloo Black and came away with a 3-1
win. Sarnia finished 1st in their group with
the tie & 2 wins to move onto Sunday’s semi final round.
On Sunday,
the Fury were able to continue their strong play, coming

In the final, Sarnia played will all their heart and
never gave up against a bigger and stronger Brampton
team. The Fury lost to the Red Devils 8-0 but the boys
were tenacious to the end, making the parents and
coaches (Aldo DeSantis & Chad Hogan) very proud to
finish 2nd out of 10 teams.
