Northville Mustangs

The Northville Mustangs and the Ladywood Blazers faced off again on Jan 10 for another close game. The last time the two teams met, the game ended with a win for the Mustangs in overtime. However, this time they were not so lucky. The game started out to a rough start, in just 4 minutes there had already been 5 penalties. But the game soon calmed down and midway through the first period, Sam Pope received a pass from Stephanie Papich and Pope put it in the net. Near the end of the first, Ladywood got their first goal. The second peirod followed the same as the first and when the Mustangs went into the lockeroom, the score was 2-2. After the intermission, the Blazers got a goal with a Mustang goal soon followed. Andrea Soloko took the puck up the ice and took a hard shot from the blue line, putting it right passed the Blazer goalie. The score was now tied 3-3 and there were only 4 minutes left in the game. Ladywood got a shot passed Mustang goalie, Danielle Bigi, and the Mustangs began to lose hope. With one minute left the Blazers put another goal in and the Mustangs knew it was over. These two teams are defintley well matched and hopefully will meet again in the playoffs for a tie-breaker game. The Mustangs have won one game and the Blazers have won one.
