February 25th – Prep Boys Hockey in Windsor, ON Canada

In February, the Prep team travelled to Windsor Canada for 2 games against an old rival A21. Afterwards I found out that they will no longer have a program as a hockey academy but will be moving to a well-respected Catholic School with boarding in Windsor and hopeful to join theqame 1 the guys came out very fast but very timid and played a perimeter game that was all puck possession and no determination. For 2 periods we had 22 shots and no grade A. A21 on the other hand came ready to play and drove the net every chance and took a 2-0 lead into the 3rd period. After a few changes to the lines and a different approach, the game shifted when Trevor Stewart made a diving play to send Tommy Enrietto in on a breakaway to make it 2-1. The next shift Ryan Costin made it 2-2 on assists by Tommy Enrietto and Tyler Gearman. 12 seconds after that David Keene scored the game winner with the assist to Justin Ahern. Trevor Stewart closed out the scoring to end the game with a 4-2 win. Charlie Campbell made 19 saves for the win. 

Game 2 this morning was a dominating performance from the start to the end. Cole Mathews, Noah Houle, Justin Ahern, Tommy Enrietto and John Greer scored while Ian Vandenberg stopped all 10 shots for the shutout on the way to a 5-0 victory and the 30th win on the season.
