Score one for girls/women's hockey!

This entry was submitted by Tammy.

Today Mrs. Winters and Mrs. Summers took their students to see the Edmonton Thunder play hockey against the New Brunswick Northern Stars. Can you believe that this is the first ever national championships for Triple A Midget girls aged 15 to 18? The students were excited to participate in this fully funded field trip sponsored by Esso. We were dazzled by the luxury bus liner, the 'thunder sticks' (supplied by Telus - thank you Telus) and the caliber of hockey. The final score was 5-0 for the Edmonton Thunder. Brittany Esposito (#7) dominated the game and came close to achieving a hat trick but her third goal was disallowed near the end of the game due to a net off its moorings. My thanks to Mrs. Winters and Mrs. Summers for the yummy game snacks and to Esso for giving our children an opportunity to witness such an auspicious event.

Thank you Tammy, for the post. For more information about the Esso Female Midget Hockey Championship and Calgary's team entry click here.
