Thunder earn semi final berth!
The Trends/Alltro Minor Midget AA Thunder beat Niagara 5-2 last night to win the series 3 games to 1 and advance to the Tri County semi finals. Halton Hills awaits the winner of Guelph/Brampton whose series wraps up this weekend.
Leading the way last night was Captain Stu McDonald who played through an upper body injury and scored two third period goals, including the game winner with 9 minutes remaining in the third. Brady Worthman had 1g,1a, Nick Theim, Justin Leblanc, and Jack Reid all with 2a, Bryce Hillock and Dylan Verboon scoring the other two Thunder goals. Ethan Valade had an assist and sacrificed his body with a huge blocked shot late in the third with the Niagara goalie on the bench.
