The Schomberg Red Wings earned more hardware than anybody on home ice last weekend, with five rep teams taking part in the annual Red and White Tournament at the Trisan Centre.
In the tournament’s 39th year, SMHA earned two championship trophies and a pair of finalist nods, including a championship win from the Peewee A squad.
Outscoring the Millbrook Stars, Brampton Marlies, and Muskoka Originals by a total of 16-2 through the round robin, Schomberg met with the Lincoln Blades in Sunday’s final in a battle of undefeated teams.
Schomberg squeaked out the victory, 1-0.
The Atom Wings had a decisive 3-0 shutout of the Clarington Toros in their consolation final, barely missing the championship match due to a final round robin loss to the eventual champions Saugeen Shores. They added a 4-0 shutout of the Richmond Hill Stars and a 3-2 win over the Kanata Blazers in the round robin.
In the Bantam division, the Wings were the most dominant team in a low-scoring tournament, defeating the Chatsworth Rebels and Mitchell Meteors by scores of 1-0 and 2-1 respectively before finishing with a one-all tie with the Millbrook Stars.
Meeting with the Caledonia Thunder in Sunday’s final, Schomberg finished as championship finalists in a 5-1 Caledonia victory.
A win over the South Muskoka Bears and London Bandits and a loss to the Bancroft Jets for the Midget Wings set up a Sunday consolation final with the Loyalist Jets, who also went 2-1 in round robin play. Loyalist topped the Wings 4-1.
The Local League Red and White Tournament runs from the end of December through the beginning of January.
