The Jr. B Eagles earned a 4-3 win versus Doug Birks Division rivals the Revelstoke Grizzlies Friday night.
While the Grizzlies are currently at the bottom of the division’s rankings, they made Sicamous work hard for the victory.
Revelstoke landed the first marker of the evening through a power-play conversion late in the first frame. Their second marker came early on in period two. First to score for the Eagles was Colin Blake at 8:32, with assists by Darien Head and Devin Gerun. Revelstoke responded at 2:52, but the Eagles had the last word in the frame with a goal at 1:09 by Stephen Hawco, assisted by Kris Joyce and Nathan Grieve.
Eagle Riley Jepson used a power play early in the third period to tie the game three all (assisted by Devon Quartly and Bradley Whitehead). After the 10 minute mark, Revelstoke’s game turned from scoring goals to earning penalties, giving Hawco an opportunity to convert a penalty into goal number four for the Eagles, assisted by Grieve and Arlyn Semeschuk.
The Eagles are back on home ice on Saturday, Dec. 14, to take on the Princeton Posse.
