Junior sides put it all on the line in Upper Great Southern Hockey Association finals

In the Upper Great Southern Hockey Association upper-school competition, Eagles are the first team through to the decider after a thrilling second semifinal.

Eagles took on Vultures in the top-of-the-table-clash, and at half-time, Vultures led 1-0.

Late in the final quarter Eagles drew level with a great field goal, taking the game into golden goal extra time.

However, with many shots on goal from both teams, neither of them scored and the game then went into the best of five one-on-ones and Eagles prevailed 3-1.

Better players in the win were Ethan Johnson, Kynan Spencer and Stephen Conlan, while Connor Logie, Rohan Annear and Jude Corner were Vultures’ best.

The second game was the Ag School derby between Ag Rangers and Collegians.

In a good battle between the two teams, Ag Rangers ran out winners 2-0 with their best being Marcel Corasaniti, Stockton Shotter and Toby Francis.

Austin Shotter, Colby Wisewould and Ethan Sandwell were Collegians’ best.
