NCP Bantam vs. Ajax/Pickering Raiders
On October 18th, the NCP bantam team traveled to Ajax to meet the Raiders in
what was sure to be a tough road matchup.
The Predators got off to a rough start giving up a goal on the first shift of the game but battled back to tie it when Christian Moore, showing great patience on a 2 on 1 rush tucked the puck by the Raiders goalie. Despite playing well the Preds fell behind 3-1 by the end of the second period, strong play by the team was finally rewarded in the third period when Travis Sawyer netted the second Pred goal with 5 minutes remaining in the third period. In the last minute of play with goalie Alex Condon, who had played a strong game between the pipes, pulled for the extra man a final push by the Preds found Kobe Roe scoring the tying goal with a deflection that beat the Raiders goalie. With that the boys earned a well-deserved tie on the road.
