The Caledon Hawks minor peewee A squad delivered a solid 6-1 win over the Hespeler Shamrocks during league action at the arena in Caledon East Sunday.
The Hawks opened the scoring in the first period on goals from Chris Origlieri and Justin Brem.
Keeping up the pressure in the second period with lot of work in the Hespeler end, the Hawks ended the period with a 3-1 lead on a goal from forward Grady McArthur.
“It was a steady effort in all three periods,” said Hawks’ coach Ian McArthur. “We had excellent forechecking — they deserved to win.”
The squad is playing in a division with lot of talent, and McArthur said his squad is keeping up with the challenge.
“We’re competing in probably one of the toughest divisions in Ontario against teams like Oakville and Burlinton, but the kids are showing up every game.”
It was a good test for the Caledon peewee team, going up against Hespler. The teams have met twice before, with Caledon coming out on top in one game and the other match ending in a tie.
When the teams returned for the third period, the Hawks took control and ended the game with three more goals from Jake Antczak, Luca Lera, and Coby Garbutt to make it a 6-1 final.
“Our puck movement was excellent, and the way the forwards were utilizing the defence — that was awesome,” the coach commented. “That’s what I was just telling the kids. And the patience for the players not to rush a pass, so some of the defencemen took a lot of time and made the right choices before they passed. That was the difference in the game — the ability to control the puck.”
The team has one more road game in Owen Sound before returning to finish the regular season with three home games in the new year.
