Fraser Valley loses battle of the birds

Valley West Hawks take pair of games off Thunderbirds in major midget hockey action

A pair of losses against the league’s top team has the Fraser Valley Thunderbirds in the midst of a three-game losing streak.

The B.C. Major Midget Hockey League squad lost 5-1 at the Langley Events Centre last Friday (Jan. 29) and then fell 6-2 in the rematch the next day at the Abbotsford Recreation Centre to the Valley West Hawks.

The losses dropped Fraser Valley to 14-12-6 on the season.

Justin Plett (Abbotsford) had the lone T-Birds marker in game one while Logan Hunter (Langley) and Andrew Sorenson (Abbotsford) scored in the rematch.

Things don’t get any easier for Fraser Valley this weekend as they host the second-place Cariboo Cougars twice at Abbotsford’s Centre Ice.
