Atoms finish hockey season

By Steve and Shannon Hepburn

The Creemore Atom local hockey team finished their season last week.

After a slow start, they began growing as a team, improving both individually and as a whole throughout the year. In their playoff pool, they went 6-12 in the round robin earning them a place in the finals against Elmvale.

Game 1 was a hard 7-2 loss, but the kids bounced back for a 3-1 win in game 2. Final game, back in the opponent’s rink, they battled hard to a 1-1 tie after regulation.

Both teams gave it their all, but alas, our team faced defeat by a well-earned goal in over time by Elmvale.

They finished the season as the Georgian Bay Triangle LL atom D finalists.

Way to go, team!
