Scoring for the visitors were Daniel Vernace on a highlight reel deke goal, Kent McPherson on lazer of a point shot while the team was on a power play, Josh Ocampo battling and batting in a bouncing puck at the net front and Shawn Crowley with a slot shot tying the game with less than 3 minutes remaining in regulation time.

"We kept battling and never stopped believing and eventually we prevailed when Kent (McPherson) scored the shootout winner and Spencer stopped another shooter" said Coach Dupont Next up for the team is a home tilt versus the Toronto Junior Canadiens on Friday at 7:30PM.

Fifty five minutes of sound hockey wasn't good enough for the Golden Hawks in their 4-3 shootout loss yesterday afternoon versus the Lindsay Muskies in Trenton. "We really need to start playing better at home if we are going to have any success moving forward" said Coach adding that "not being fully engaged doesn't cut it at this time of the year when everybody is competing for every inch of ice." Scoring for the home side was Miles MacLean, Chase Nieuwendyk and Michael Radisa. Andrew Visor in net stopped 30 of 34 shots. Thursday night the team travels to Kingston for a game versus the Voyageurs.
