What an incredible story of resilience and grit! A huge
congratulations to U9 Local League Team 1 on their championship win at the
Niagara Falls Breakaway Tournament this past weekend.
Led by Coach Jeremy Lee, the team demonstrated unwavering
determination, overcoming major deficits in both their must-win round robin
game and the championship final.
In the decisive round robin matchup, the Hawks found
themselves down 3-0, but they refused to quit. With just four minutes left,
they battled back to tie the game and then buried the game-winner with 45
seconds to go—an unbelievable comeback!
Then, in the championship game, down 3-1 in the third
period, the team once again showed their heart, rallying to tie the game and
force overtime. In true championship fashion, the Hawks struck quickly in OT to
claim the tournament title!
With their never-give-up attitude and relentless work ethic,
U9 LL Team 1 truly earned the nickname “The Comeback Kids.” Congratulations to
the players, coaches, and families on an incredible tournament run!
