Hockey Warriors win second tournament title

Chilliwack's bantam AAA female hockey Warriors claimed first place at the Tri-City Ice Classic Tournament.

The Chilliwack Warriors bombed their way to another tournament title, winning gold at the Tri-City Ice Classic tournament.

The tourney was held during the Christmas break, and the bantam AAA female hockey team had to battle hard for the win.

Chilliwack went 3-2 overall, opening with a 2-0 win over their Tri-City hosts.

They followed that with a 7-3 win over the North Shore Avalanche before hitting their first speed-bump.

Back-to-back losses to Tri-City (2-0) and North Shore (5-3) had them reeling.

North Shore erased a three-goal deficit with five unanswered, leaving the locals with shaken confidence.

But they recovered in the final, doubling up North Shore 6-3.

Abbotsford native MacKenna Unger was outstanding in net.

Game MVPs were Ryann Allenby, Taylor Rodin, Tamina Kehler, Makayla Read and Jordyn Huitema.

The Warriors previously won a tourney in Kelowna.
