January 16th JAAGvs Royal Oak

The JAAGs visited Royal Oak on Saturday morning to take on one of Royal Oaks Mite teams.
After last weekends win over DSC the Jaags seemed fired up to keep the winning streak going. Royal Oak got an early goal to make it 1-0 but the JAAGS came roaring back with two straight goals one by Josh Sherman playing center and one Blake Salesin on defense to make it 2-1 after one period of play.

However, the second and third periods were not so productive for the JAAGS both offensively and defensively giving up five more goals to loss 7-2. The JAAGs seemed to loss some intensity in those periods and the depth of the Royal Oak team was too much for the JAAGs to handle. One bright note was the solid goaltending by Nate Glime. He had many key saves in the game.

Coach Sherman felt the team came up short on positioning in the game and said "we had a very strong first period, but the Royal Oak team was able to get behind the defense on more than one occasion allowing for good goal scoring opportunities." He also went on to say that the Royal Oak goaltending was exceptional and really made it diffiicult for us to put points on the board.

The JAAGs have a league game against Birmingham on Sunday.
