Pee Wee Minor AAA Alliance
With a roster of athletes from all over the county, this year's Sun County Panthers Pee Wee Minor hockey team has proven to be unstoppable.
Under the direction of Coach Mark Cadotte, Coach Mike "Moose"Morissette, and Danny Babic, the team started their season off on a high note. Going undefeated in their first tournament, the SCP team was named the Little Caesars Tournament Champions, earning themselves an impressive opportunity to play on the ourdoor rink at Comerica Park. In late December, these boys donned their new SCP "vintage" jerseys and took to the ice during the 2013 Winter Classic. The new year brought the boys to Lansing, Michigan, where they were named the Nations Cup Tournament Champions. Heading into the league playdowns, the Sun County Panthers were paired with the London Jr. Knights in the quarter finals and came out ahead with a 6-2pt. lead. Versing the Brantford 99ers, in the semi-finals, the SCP team dominated the ice, skating away with a 7-3pt. win over the series. Advancing to the finals, the Waterloo Wolves came out strong and worked our boys hard in several intense games. The sixth game of the series brought the Sun County Panthers back to Waterloo, on Saturday, March 29th, where they were pleasantly surprised by Sammy Uprichard, one of their biggest fans(& honoray team member). With determination, skill, and great coaching, the SCP team came out on fire to take a quick lead. Waterloo fought back to put one on the scoreboard. Minutes later, the SCP team clinched the lead again, and continued to outplay their opponents. At the end of the third period, the Sun County Panthers came out on top with a victorious 5-1 win and were named the 2013-14 Pee Wee Minor AAA Alliance Champions. Congratulations on an amazing season! "1,2,3,...SCP"!
