The Aurora Tigers Minor Atom A team captured the silver medal at the Fort Erie Fall Classic.  


Finishing second out of eight highly competitive teams is a wonderful accomplishment. The team battled hard for the entire tournament and they responded quickly when they were scored against. This was especially truein the semi-final game, when the lead changed four times in a 4-3 overtime victory for the Tigers. In the championship game against the Vaughan Rangers, the opponents scored the winning goal with only 40 seconds remaining, for a well-deserved 3-2 victory over the Tigers.Spectators, opposing team parents, and tournament coaches all commented on how exciting the championship game was and about how well the Tigers played. The Minor Atom A team clearly represented Aurora well, and the team's parents are extremely proud.Congratulations to all of the players and to all of the coaching staff.

Special thanks as well to Angela Yeoman for the story submission.
