With all the pool play done, the pairings were set for Sundays Finals.  The Roseau White was paired with Roseau Green from the other bracket for Sunday Morning’s playoff game.  It was a good first period for both teams 0-0 after 15 mins of play.  The Green team came out strong for the rest of the game ending it 4-0 in favor of the Green Team.  Good Job Green.  To add some fun to the game, between the 1st and 2nd periods  we had a “my coach is better than your coach” shoot out.  Tom Murphy vs Tom Jerome.  Both coaches gave it a go to see who could get the puck closest to the center dot on the ice starting from the Goal line.  Tom Murphy was about 2 feet closer so the Green Team took the win.  Between the 2nd and 3rd periods the coaches decided it should be a “my coaches WIFE is better that your coaches WIFE” competition.  That paired Ann Leverington from the Green team against Bonnie Wensloff from the White team.  They both did great, but in the end the Green team ended up taking the prize.  Thanks for your participation coaches and wives.

10U White vs. EGF  1/17/10

 
The 10U White team traveled to East Grand Forks for a game this past Sunday. The Noon start time collided head on with a certain football game which made it tough for the parents to get focused but the girls didn't seem to  miss a beat and came out flying in this one matching EGF's speed and intensity. EGF scored first but the girls tied it back up with a goal by Kenzie Rugland assisted by Gina Wensloff and Jenna Byfuglien. The game would stay tied through the second period with great back and forth fast paced action. Stella Vatnsdal came up big when she needed to as did the the EGF goalie and this one would come down till the last minute of the game when Sophia Donarski got free on a breakaway only to be hauled down by the EGF defense. The girls went on the power play and finally capitalized on one of their chances with Kenzie Rugland getting the game winner with just 15 seconds left assisted by Jenna Byfuglien. EGF then pulled their goalie but this one belonged to Roseau in a very hard fought, well deserved 2-1 win.

Fargo All City Girls International Hockey Classic Summary -
Jan 1 - 3, 2010

After what seemed like a short Christmas break, the 10U white team traveled to Fargo for a Tournament this past weekend.
 
First up was a Friday night game with Orono. There was no scoring in the first with just two shots apiece fired at the goalies. Orono got on the board in the second with 2 goals just 40 seconds apart to take a 2-0 lead going into the third. Halfway through the third Jenna Byfuglien drew a hooking call and put the girls on the power play. It didn't take long on the power play with Mckenzie Nix scoring assisted by Kenzie Rugland to get within a goal. This set up a great finish with a late time out and Coaches Tracey Wensloff and Tom Jerome pulling goalie Stella Vatnsdal for the a extra attacker but in the end Orono held on for a 2-1 win. A lucky break or the right bounce here or there and this one could of went Roseau's way but Orono had a big strong goalie who didn't give up any rebounds, and she ended up being the difference in the game.
 
Next up was an early, early game as in 7:30am matchup with West Fargo. This one got off to an understandably slow start with lot's of whistles as both teams were trying to get a feel for the game. On a side note a gutsy performance goes out to Jenna Byfuglien's younger sister, Savanah who at approximately 7:15am decided it was a good time to try a concession stand hot dog?  Meanwhile on the ice West Fargo was building up a 4-0 lead with one skater doing the bulk of the scoring. Late in the period Kenzie Rugland scored on a pass from Jenna to make it 4-1. The girls went on the power play to start the second but couldn't get any quality chances and West Fargo added to their lead later with a couple more goals to make it 6-1 after two. West Fargo added to more in the third to make it 8-1.  Stella Vatnsdal seen 28 shots fired her way in this one and played well as did the rest of the girls despite the loss.
 
This set up a game with Roseau's other 10U team Saturday evening. Roseau Green got the only goal in the first but Gina Wensloff scored unassisted in the second and Kenzie Rugland scored to make it 2-1. Kate Wensloff got the assist on Kenzie's goal. The Green team answered back though with two goals of their own to make it 3-2. With a minute and a half to go in the game the White team pulled Stella for an extra skater but couldn't get that third goal to tie it and in the end the Green scored an empty netter to make it a 4-2 final.
 
The girls had another early start Sunday morning with a matchup with Waverly Heights out of Winnipeg. Waverly Heights got on the board first but Kenzie Rugland scored unassisted to tie it and the girls took the lead when Mckenzie Nix scored from Gina Wensloff to make it 2-1. Shots in the first favored Roseau 8-2. Waverly Heights tied it halfway through the second but Kenzie Rugland got the girls back on top with a late second period goal to make it 3-2. The girls opened it up a bit in the third with Sophia Donarski scoring from Gina and then Gina getting one of her own with the assist going to Jenna Byfuglien to make it 5-2 which is how it would end. Stella Vatnsdal made 10 saves in the game to get the win.

Thief River Falls 10U Tournament Dec. 19-20, 2009

The 10U White team participated in the Thief River Falls Tournament this past weekend.

 
They started the trny with a Saturday morning matchup with Elk River. The girls got off to a good start with Gina Wensloff scoring unassisted but Elk River answered right back and made it 1-1 after one. Elk River then came out and scored 3 goals in the second session outshooting our girls 13-2. They added one more in the third to make the final 5-1.
 
Their second game opponent was a team out of Fargo called the Lightning.  Lightning struck first in this one and held a 1-0 lead after one. The girls were having a hard time mustering up scoring chances with just 3 shots compared to Fargo's 7. In the second period they found themselves killing off a couple of penalties and both teams struggled to get a lot of quality scoring chances. They finally got on the board in the third period with a goal by Sophia Donarski on the power play to tie the game at one apiece. That's how this one would end thanks to some key saves by Stella Vatnsdal who had to make almost three times as many stops (16-6) as her counterpart.
 
Game three Sunday morning matched them against the host team TRF. TRF got on the board first and held that lead after one. They also took a two girl advantage into the break as our girls found themselves getting called for two tripping penalties on the same play with just a second left on the clock.  The girls came out in the second and successfully fought off that 5 on 3 and seemed to build a little momentum doing it. TRF then answered with a goal making it 2-0 after two. Up to this point the game had been pretty well played by both teams and the tempo was a vast improvement over  the first two games the girls had played. Things changed a bit in the third however as TRF came out flying and scored 4 unanswered goals to put this one out of reach. Roseau did get on the scoreboard with a nice pass out front by Kenzie Rugland to Gina Wensloff for a goal but TRF scored one more late to make the final 7-1. Shots favored the home team 25-12.
 
The girls captured Third Place in the Tournament thanks to the tie with Fargo and the goal differentials.
 
The 10U White's next game is December 27 at the Ram Sport Center against Grand Forks at 3:30pm. Come on out and work off that holiday meal by cheering on the girls!

Roseau White 3, Warroad 0

After coming off a defeat on the road to a tough TRF team, The 10U White girls had a rare Tuesday night game matching up at home with rival Warroad here at the Rams Sports Center. Gina Wensloff opened the scoring just under 2 minutes into this one, with the assist going to Jenna Byfuglien. Gina made it 2-0 at the 7:51 mark, capitalizing on a nice feed out of the corner by Madison Lee.  Roseau continued to apply pressure throughout the opening session, Mackenzie Nix had a great rush late in the period coming in and letting a nice wrist shot fly. After deflecting off the pipe, the puck was headed in only to be denied by the Goaltenders knob on the end of her stick. Stella Vatnsdal came up big with a minute to go, stopping a Warroad breakaway to keep them off the scoreboard. Shots in the period favored Roseau
10-2.
 
   The second period turned into a scoreless battle as Warroad picked up the pace a little and played the girls much more evenly. Both teams had some chances but after two periods the scoreboard read the same. They continued their close play into the third as this game got the feel that a lucky bounce either way could make the difference in the end. Stella Vatnsdal made sure that bounce didn't go Warroad's way with a great save on a Warroad rush with just under seven minutes to go.  Kenzie Rugland scored a big insurance goal two minutes later to make it 3-0, which is how it would end. Shots were 27-11 in favor of Roseau, but it felt a bit closer than that after the opening period.
 

Roseau White 9, Bemidji 6
 
   The girls made the trip to Bemidji Saturday and came out on top 9-6 to improve their record to five wins and two losses.  We'll try to get a summary on this one. Next up for the girls is a weekend Trny in Thief River Falls,
