Off and Running

We have now competed in 2 exhibition games with teams from Guelph and Burlington. Our guys have tried hard under game conditions. The team is a combination of hustle and size. With a lot of hard work we know that we can exceed expectations; Coach Steve and I look forward to moving our guys from "rookies" to "veterans".

Our first game in Guelph was a contest that offered us a lot of opportunities to win the game. We struggled to capitalize on our height advantage and wound up losing 37-24. Chris Huffman, Austin Zeller, Jeffrey Mauro and Cordell Ornifrichuk were scorers for the Huskies.

In our second match at McKinnon Park, we faced a Burlington team that was executing as in mid-season form. We were confronted with an aggressive defense that included a press. When opportunities did arise, we had some success in taking it to the basket. It was a long night however and we lost 63-31. Scorers for the Huskies were: Chris Huffman, Ronnie Taylor, Jeffrey Mauro, Nick Mallet and Austin Zeller.

With only 1 practice session before the Christmas Break, we'll need a hard push from all the guys to elevate our game to a more competitive level in the new year.

Merry Christmas to all our players, families and friends...
