Walkerton Power Worker’s Union Bantam Boys Defeat Mount Forest Rams
On December 6, the Power Worker’s Union
Bantam Boys took on the Mount Forest Rams at home in Walkerton.
To start it off, Austin Kelly ripped a shot from the bottom of the circle, through the goalie’s five-hole and in. The goal was assisted by Jordan Bester and Drew Cobean. Mount Forest replied shortly after to tie it up. With just a few minutes left in the first Austin Kelly (assisted by Jordan Bester) passed the puck across the crease to Jayden Louther who fired it in! End of the first 2-1 for Walkerton.
The second period saw plenty of play in Mount Forest’s end, including a breakaway by Ryan Lair that resulted in a near miss. There were also opportunities for Mount Forest to score but goalie Chase Hauck shut them down every time. About halfway through the second Drew Cobean solidified the lead with a shot from mid-circle. The second period ended 3-1 for Walkerton.
Throughout the game and into the third period defensemen Michael Fortney, Daylan Hopcraft, Steven Ottewell and Jaden Dietz held the Rams back. There were many scoring opportunities created by the excellent team work of forwards Nate Illerbrunn and Chris Taylor but no additional goals scored.
The final score 3-1 for Walkerton with great support from coaching staff Paul Hauck and Phil MacDonald.
