BATTALIONS BATTLE ROYALS AT SILVER STICK OPENER
- Submitted by

The Battalions Minor Atom A team got off to a fast start at the 2006 Silver Stick Tournament in Vaughn Ontario today.  The Battalions out paced the Toronto Royals in their first game of the tournament 8 to 1.

Christian Maraconda, Lucas Toth, and Josh Boswell opened the scoring  in the first period with 3 unanswered goals. Assists went to Austin Filipe on the first goal Ryan Hodder, and Sam Coleman on Toth's goal and Jacob O'brien and Nicholas Prete on the Coleman goal.

In the second period the Battalions extended their lead by scoring 3 more goals by Austin Filipe on an assist by Coleman, and Michael Mooney.  Lucas Toth scored his second of the night converting a pass from Jacob Obrien.  Jacob O'brien completed the scoring in the second, scoring his first of the tournament on a deflection from a shot by Nicholas Prete and  an assist by Alexander Torresan.   

In the third period O'brien scored his second of the night and tournament converting a pass from Prete and Boswell.  Moments later, O'brien completed the natural hat-trick converting another pass from Prete and Boswell.

The Royals added a goal late in the 3rd period to spoil the shut-out and otherwise solid all round game for the Battalions.  The Battalions out-shot the Royals 23 to 6. The story of the game was the steady play of Carter Vandergrient who made some very crucial saves in the first period to keep the Battalion momentum alive and on track. 

Hats off to all the players for puting in a solid effort to open the tournamant
