Windsor CO, 02-25-2007
The Colorado Junior Eagles Midget Major A team won their 2nd
consecutive league championship this past weekend in Windsor CO. The
Eagles were the number one seed in the league tourny and started things
off with a tight 5-3 win over CHC on Friday night.
Early Saturday morning the Eagles suffered their only loss all season
at the A level by losing a close game to Pueblo 2-1. This put the boys
in the losers bracket and they would have to win this thing the hard
way.
Saturday night the Eagles faced CHC again and rolled 7-3.
Sunday morning's 7AM game vs. Pueblo was do or die for the Eagles and
they came away with a nice 3-1 victory. Yet since the tournament is
double elimination the Eagles would have to face Pueblo again later
that afternoon for the winner take all championship game. The Eagles
didn't waste their opportunity and took care of business beating the
Pueblo Panthers 5-1 in the final game of the tournament. This
represents the Eagles 2nd consecutive league championship at this level
and also secured them as the number 1 seed in the CAHA State Tournament
the following weekend.
