PW A1 and SQ AA take Runner-up!

Congratulations to the Vikings PW03 Central States team for taking home the big prize in this weekend's Rumble on the Rink pre-season tournament in Detroit.

The boys went 3-0 in round robin play, taking down the Livonia Knights, London Jr Knights and the Novi Ice cats along the way.  The semi-final game saw a rematch with the Livonia Knights.  Trailing 4-1 late in the 3rd, the Vikings mounted a huge comeback, tallying 3 goals in the last 2 minutes to tie the game and securing the win on the first shift into OT.  The Vikings would then carry this surge into the final, defeating the Chicago Hawks 6-0 to take home the championship.  Great job Vikings!

The Vikings PW A1 and Squirt AA also had great showings, advancing to the finals before falling to take Runner-up in their respective age levels.  The Bantam AA team also played very well this weekend, advancing to the Semi-final in a talented bracket before falling.

Overall, the Vikings went 14-11-1 in this very challenging pre-season tournament.  Way to go Vikings!
