Vipers strike for gold in Seattle

Langley Minor Hockey Association initiation squad beats Sno-King Green 5-4 in championship final

The Langley Vipers capped off their season in style, bringing home the gold medal from a weekend tournament in Seattle hosted by the Sno-King Amateur Hockey Association.

The H4 LY2 initiation hockey team went 3-0 in the round robin portion of the tournament, defeating a trio of Washington state teams.

That put them into the semifinals against Ridge Meadows, and after a hard-fought victory, Langley faced the Sno-King Green team in the finals.

Playing their fifth game in two days, the players were exhausted, but managed to hold on for a 5-4 victory, including withstanding a Sno-King attack that did not relent until the final buzzer sounded.
