Getting Closer
The Saugeen Maitland AA Peewees played the top teams in their division over the last two weekends, and while they were close games the home town squad were unable to come out on top.

On November 23rd, the Lightning hosted Burlington Barracudas.  After some confusion on where the game could be held due to a power outage at the Howick Arena, the game took place in Harriston.

The game was a back and forth match with both teams playing hard and moving the puck well.  Burlington showed why they are on top of the division with some talented passing.  The Lightning ended up on the losing end of a 2-1 score but were happy with their performance.

Then on Saturday November 30th, the Lightning hosted their rival Oakville.  Once again, Oakville demonstrated their strength and hard working ethic, but the Lightning were equal to the task.  Going into the third period, the game was 2-1 for the Hornets and was action packed. 

With less then 4 minutes to go in the game, after the Oakville goalie made an incredible save, Oakville was able to skate back and rifle a shot in the top corner making the game 3-1 which ended up being the final score. 

While the Lightning were not able to come away from these two games with a point, they realize that their hard work is paying off.  The girls are getting closer and closer to these two top teams....and it is only a matter of time before the local squad is on the winning side.
