Despite coming up on the wrong end of two games versus Kamloops during the weekend, Williams Lake Bantam Girls Timberwolves coach Ben Pierce was pleased with what he saw.
The team fell 4-2 and 5-4 in the games, held Saturday and Sunday at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex.
“Our team played well, just couldn’t score goals when we had the opportunity,” Pierce said. “The girls really played with passion and pride and the effort for both games was there.
“I was very happy with the compete level from our team. I think we’ve really turned our compete level up.”
In game one Bronwyn Pocock tallied twice for the T-wolves, while Sara Vermeulen, Pyper Alexander, Gabrielle Pierce and Senna Trampleasure lit the lamp in game two.
“We ran into a pretty good goaltender who stopped a lot of shots,” Pierce said. “We outshot Kamloops by a wide margin each game. Our forecheck and composure with the puck was the best I’ve seen yet this year.
“We outplayed Kamloops both games. Unfortunately it wasn’t reflected on the scoreboard.”
