Pee Wee's have a great weekend tournament!
The Pee Wee LL team travelled to Elmira for the Woolwich Cup tournament, their first tournament of the season.

The Pee Wee's were revved up for their first game on Friday vs. the host Woolwich#2 team. The first period got underway with Cayden Hulley scoring on an assist from our AP'd player, Hailey McLean. Woolwich answered back 3 minutes later and tied it up to end the first period 1-1.
The second period saw Central Perth's offense explode with 3 goals. The goals came from Darius Ladd assisted by Haiden Goetz, Derek Gropp assisted by Kaleb Horton-Shine and Ladd and Ladd unassisted. We went into the third period with a 4-1 lead.
We couldn't let up our defence though as Woolwich would get another goal by our netminder Tim Beuerman. Central Perth stayed strong and put 3 more goals on the board from Horton-Shine assisted by Gropp, Owen Smith assisted by Horton-Shine and Grop assited by Goetz.
Final score 7-2 for the Predators.  Tim Beuerman had a great game in net.
Saturday had our first game at 12:15pm vs Port Dover Pirates. Port Dover got on the board first with a goal by Beuerman. The Predators answered back with 2 of our own from Cayden Hulley and Gropp assisted by Horton-Shine. We went into the second with a slim 2-1 lead.
The second period saw Ladd and Goetz score with assists from Goetz, Horton-Shine. We held off Port Dover in the second to end with a commanding 4-1 lead.
The third period saw Port Dover close the gap with a goal to come within 2 of us. Owen Smith netted another one for us assisted by Gropp. Port Dover made it close with another goal with 4:47 left.  Our defense held on and final score 5-3.
Our third game of the round was vs. Thorold Blackhawks #2 at 6:45. The first period was a tight one as neither team could get the puck past the keen eyed goalies. Into the second we go with a 0-0 tie. Thorold would get on the board first in the second with 2 goals. Our offense was stalled for a while. The third period saw goals for us from Goetz and Hulley with assists by Gropp (x2), Ladd and Kirkham. This put the game at a 2 all tie! But with .48 seconds left, Beuerman couldn't stop their forward and the final goal was let in. Final score 3-2 for Thorold.
The round robin record put us in the Semi Final round on Sunday morning at 11 am vs. Thorold Blackhawks #1.
Thorold would strike first with a goal 5 minutes into the first. The second period saw neither team score so the defense and goalies were working hard!
The third period had Goetz connect with Ladd for our first goal. 2 minutes later though Thorold would get the go ahead. With 2:06 left, Ladd moved to the net and scored a beauty goal to tie things up.
Into overtime we go. 1:20 into the overtime period, Thorold would get one passed Beuerman to make it a 3-2 heartbreaker loss.
A great effort from all the kids and our AP'd player, Hailey McLean. Our team can be very proud of that effort put forth as a team!
Minto comes to Monkton this Friday night as we are back to our regular league schedule.
