Mite Green travels to Clinton Sunday afternoon.
The first matchup between these two teams this season was set for a 4pm face off

After a quick warm up at the new Clinton rink, both teams were set to drop the puck for their first meeting.

Lucan controlled the play and hemmed Clinton inside their own end for the first part of the contest and then opened the scoring when James V. slid one under the Clinton netminder. Followed by another quick second Lucan goal to get the game off to a good start.

However Clinton soon reacted with a couple of their own and the tables were turned, as Clinton applied the same pressure they were under earlier in the game.

Our squad continues to pass the puck well and move it ahead to the open players. Gracie B. was the recipient of one of these fine passes; when Mitchell B. set her up at the side of the net where she let a bullet shot go and sniped her first goal of the season.
Although we had a very strong game and our passes were clicking we fell short at the final buzzer as Clinton went on to win 12-5.

James V. opened the scoring of this game and he netted a second goal near the halfway point as well as some real opportunities for a hat trick bid. Therefore he was awarded the "Hardest Worker" of the game. Congratulations James!
