Nottawa to play in a mini tournament against two of the top teams in our area.
In the first game the boys faced Admiral, Collingwood. The boys
played a great offensive game but came up short. In the second game
against Nottawa the boys had a fantastic offensive first half but were unable
to catch the well rested Nottawa team during the second half of the game.
The coach at Nottawa was very impressed with sportsmanship displayed by
all team members during the game. There will be a practice today at
first recess. Please make sure you attend as permission forms will be sent home
for our area tournament that takes place next week. </span></li></ul><ul><li><span lang="EN-CA" style="font-size:10pt;">Congratulations to
