Midgets finish round robin with two wins over Guelph
The Sunny Acre Farms Midgets finished the round robin portion of the OMHA playoffs last night in Guelph, after beating Guelph 5-3 at home on Friday night. The Thunder skated to a 4-1 victory over the Gryphons last night in their barn. With injuries and suspensions leaving the team short handed AP players; Cory Highfield, Adam Lencz, and Michael Kri stepped in and played well, with all three making the scoresheet on Friday, Kri and Highfield 1g1a, and Lencz 1a. 


The rematch last night was a physical contest with Guelph being undisciplined on and off the ice. The Gryphons aggressive play kept giving Halton Hills multiple powerplay chances, but the Thunder could only take a 2-1 lead to the second period break on goals by Drew Hillock, and Matt Simpson. The third period was a different story, Conor Fisken got his first of the playoffs burying a slapshot high glove, and Simpson got his second of game converting a nice touch pass from Matt Hodgins. Both goals on the powerplay as Guelph continued to take penalties. Capping off a strong night on defence, Fisken picked up the physical play with a couple solid body checks.
The team now awaits it's first tri-county opponent, schedule to follow.
