2008 Chicago
Mission Girls U19 Minnesota Thoroughbred
Tourney Champions
The Chicago Mission Girls U19 won the
Minnesota Thoroughbred tournament over the
past weekend. The Mission's schedule was
great, they finished early everyday and it
allowed the girls to go watch the University
of Minnesota men's and women's teams play.
Round robin games:
Team Alaska: W 7-1
Westman (Canadian Team): W 6-2
Minnesota Thoroughbreds: W 4-3
Semi-Finals:
Madison Capitals: W 7-2
Championship:
POE (Pursuit of Excellence from Manitoba,
Canada) W 5-0
The girls experienced a great weekend of
success. After a few days off from the
holiday it was great to see their commitment
to the little aspects of the game was still
evident. Their perseverance got them through
a very physical opponent in the
Thoroughbreds and it was nice to see them
making the sacrifices worth it in the end.
Head Coach Greg Tam said "I am extremely
proud of our girls and appreciate their
attitudes and efforts they give everyday." |
