Major Atom Blackhawks Clinch the Season Title

Outstanding sportsmanship, ability and commitment to compete are the cornerstone of any good program whether it’s hockey or hackey sack. To highlight those facts are the hometown boys from the major atom level, who completed their season with 24 wins, 4 losses and 2 ties awarding them 1^st spot in the final standings as they prepare for the playoffs. Throughout their regular season they allowed only 37 goals in 30 games to their credit. In addition to a wildly fantastic regular season, they also competed in and won two away tournaments at their level and to build on that momentum they also competed in Sudbury’s classic ‘AA’ tournament losing those games by only a goal each
