PeeWee A Team Wins Glacier Point Christmas Tournament in Port Huron
The Kentwood Falcons PeeWee A Team won the Christmas Tournament at Glacier Point Ice Complex in Port Huron with an exciting 1-0 win over the Mount Clemons Wolves. Kentwood scored off of the initial faceoff with a shot by Cody Kuster and tipped in by Remington Woods only 7 seconds into the game. Little did everyone know that the goal would be the only scoring of the game. The Wolves had scored 24 goals in their previous 4 games but the Kentwood defense and goaltender had other plans. Congratulations to the boys and the coaching staff of the Ross Antonini coached team. The team went 3-0-2 over the 5 games and played some very good teams. Great job Kentwood PeeWee A Team! Also...if you see any of the moms from the Kentwood PWA Team ask them about the very competitive Spoons Game... :-)
