Bantam Round Up

The Winnipeg Hawks scored a whopping 55 goals in 4 games en route to the Manitoba Provincial title.  The Hawks flew past the Brandon Wheat Kings in the final 15-3.  The Hawks scored 5 goals in each period on Sunday and were led by Maverick Rafter with 3-3-6.  The tournament scoring leader Dane Schioler scored 2-3-5 and Dallas Starodub had 3 goals.  Brett Kitt for Brandon has one assist but ended the tournament with an impressive 15 points.  Brandon scored 25 goals in the tournament, so Kitt was in on 60% of the goals.

The Abbotsford Hawks once again defeated BWC yesterday at the BC provincials.  Here is a bit of a preview courtesy of Dan Kinvig of the Abbotsford News.
