Friday, October 21, it is Game day for The University Women's Field Lacrosse Championships. I am going to begin with a little quiz. Look at the picture below and answer the question to follow.
What is this scenario??
- The girls have just arrived at OUA's and are excited to play.
- The girls were just told that there are no exams this year at UOIT
- The girls just got beat 18 - 0 by Guelph.
- Justin Beiber is in town.
The answer?? I am not telling....but this I can say, the team seems to be in good spirits, don't you think? Day one was a brisk day to say the least, but the games went on.
In Game one Queens beat the Mauraders from McMaster 14 - 8, giving the Gaels the opportunity to play the number 1 Western Mustangs in the next round. Yikes.
In game two, the home Team Guelph humbled the Ridgebacks from UOIT, too much for the shorthanded girls from Oshawa.
Tristen goes to the sky for the ball!!
Game 3 saw the days first upset. The University of Toronto Blues beat the heavily favoured Wilfred Laurier team 9- 8/ Congratulations to Todd Pepper and his team. Great work!
Now the quarter finals were set. Western defeated Queens in the first semifinal 11 -5 and now move on to the final. The Mustangs have not lost all year and look solid.
UOIT played again against the tough Laurier squad and hung tough for a while, but in the end the Golden Hawks were just to deep and pulled away for the victory.
UOIT after the final game - walking proud.
In the second quarter final the the Blues from Toronto were up against the peaking Guelph Gryphons. Looks like a great matchup. At the time of this blog, I did not have that score.
Day 1 is over, and there is definitely some talented players out there. Finals are tomorrow, Saturday, October 22.
Good Luck to all!!
Updates - In the second semi-final the host Guelph Gryphons defeated the Varsity Blues from Toronto 11 - 6.
