Atom B Twisters Victorious in Waterloo
Last week in Twister action the Midget AA team travelled across the boarder to take part in the Buffalo Inferno Rush Tournament. The Midget AA team who recently returned from a trip to the United States once again headed back, this time with a few more tricks up their sleeves. The round robin saw the Midget AA team play against teams from both sides of the boarder including, Buffalo, Chicago, Clarington and Peterborough. In round robin play the Twisters finished with a 3-0-1 record to advance to the semi-final game where they unfortunately did not have the luck needed to defeat the Buffalo Regals losing a heart breaker 4-3. The Midget AA team will now head home where they will continue their strong start to the 2018/19 season.
