Knights Post First Win

Mon, Dec 12, 2011

PULASKI -- The HCS hockey team's fortunes changed Sunday afternoon with an overt barrage of 42 shots and a 5-1 victory over Ontario Bay to take home the consolation trophy of the Lake Effect Classic and their first victory of the year.

Jake Kahler turned aside 14 OBay shots while many Emerald Knights tallied goals and/or assists. Scoring for Hamilton were:

  • Ricky Runyon with 2 goals,
  • Branden Thomas with a goal and assist,
  • Jake Mercer with a goal and assist,
  • Sam Hale with 2 assists,
  • Colin Madia with a goal,
  • and Zach Sampson and Zack White each with an assist.

HCS Coach Murray Decock said a 1-4 start to the season is the direct opposite of the launch of the Knights 2010-11 season. He said the team is missing players, and has faced injuries and ineligible players. Decock said he has had to patch together lines and systems while players heal and gain the requisite number of practices.

HCS hockey action continues at Starr Rink this week as Hamilton faces Section IV opponent, Ithaca Tuesday and a league game against CNS on Thursday. Game times for both are 7p.m.
