U11 Mustangs - Purple win Nations Cup in Detroit
The U11 Mustangs - Purple participated in Nations Cup in Detroit where we represented Canada vs various American teams.
In round robin play, we came out flying and defeated the St. Clair Shores (White) Saints 5-0. We followed that up with a 9-1 over the Flint Ice Raiders later that day. On Saturday we won a wild game 8-4 over the Birmingham Rangers (White) and followed that up with a 9-0 win over Livonia Knights. We went into Championship Sunday having to face a very strong St. Clair Shores (Red) Saints team. The game was back and forth and very tight, with the game tied 2-2 and 4 minutes to play, we were able to take the lead 3-2 and then close out the game. This win earned Canada 9 points in the Nations Cup and ultimately clinched the win for Canada! Lots of fun was had a all weekend - Great work Mustangs!
