The Lumby Initiation Stars hosted the Monashee Classic Hockey Tournament Saturday and Ken Laventure’s crew looked great.
Locklyn Quibell – the team’s youngest player – worked very hard skating the puck up the ice to the opposition’s net, while Jeta Laventure recorded some gorgeous goals for the Stars and subbed in for another team as well.
Nora Louis played great and made her team proud, while Orian Laventure skated so fast with the puck it was hard to believe it is her first year playing hockey.
Caydence Quibell earned a Heart & Hustle award for earning numerous assists, while Issac Davyduke was full of hustle, and Earl Irwin and Dexter Allen skated hard both ways.
Noah Bresson registered some all-planet saves in net, while Lincoln Alger kept his stick on the ice and went hard for the puck and Noah Allen skated so fast it was hard for the other players to keep up.
Nathan Kineshanko was solid in both zones, Nolan McLaughlin impressed the crowd with his skating and Oakland Webber earned a Heart & Hustle award for constant energy.
Carsen London dug deep for the puck and Juri Ruffa earned a Heart & Hustle award for outstanding effort in his first game and first goal.
Michelle Quibell is manager of Lumby’s only Initiation team. They hold practices Mondays.
