The A&W Peewee Tier 3 Silvertips played a pair of home games at the Shaw Centre on the weekend, ending up with a 6-1 loss to Kelowna and a 10-7 win over Vernon.
On Saturday, the ’Tips fell behind 2-0 in the first period. The team gave up another goal just 44 seconds into the second frame, but got on the board when Ethan Lans tapped in a feed from Caden Sherman. That would be as close as the ’Tips would get, falling to the visitors 6-1.
Sunday’s game versus Vernon ended in a decisive win. A blocked shot breakaway deke for Lans came just before a Kai Fazan point shot set up by Henry Lenarduzzi and Damian Earl. Dominic Barbosa’s hat trick and Taylor Howard’s first of the game rounded out the scoring for the Tips in the second. Tyler Bushell had a strong game for the home team with three assists.
