Sunday, Feb. 28 - Championship game
Roseau  3    vs   EGF  1
In a rematch of the District 16 Championship played a week earlier that Roseau won, the team 
knew they would have to be on top of their game as EGF (the #1 seed) was looking for revenge. 
A nice crowd was on hand at the new Crookston Sports Center to take in the game and the
teams wouldn't disappoint.  Roseau struck first while killing a penalty when Zach Yon stole the
puck at the Roseau Blue Line and went in alone putting a nice deke on the EGF netminder to
put Roseau up 1 - 0.  The period ended with the 1 - 0 score and Roseau outshooting EGF 11 - 7. 
Both teams battled in the 2nd with several scoring chances for each team.  Roseau scored
again with Alex Strand making a nice rush up the left wing boards and feeding a great pass over
to Yon who got the shot to go in for a 2 - 0 lead.  EGF didn't give up however, scoring a goal late
in the period to bring it to 2 -1 after two periods of play.  EGF had the edge in shots for the period
bringing the total to 19 - 18.
With many nervous parents and grandparents watching, and a trip to the VFW State tournament
at stake, both teams played hard in the 3rd.  EGF had the edge in chances but Ryan Anderson
made several key saves to keep the one goal margin.  With just under 2 minutes left in the 3rd,
EGF pulled their goalie  and had several chances to score but couldn't find the net.   Then
Tanner Okeson picked up the puck in his own zone and made a nice rush up ice and put a shot
in the empty net from just over the red line for an unassisted goal with 56 seconds left.  Ryan
Anderson finished with 29 saves while the EGF goalie had 27.   The VFW State Tournament will
be held in TRF March 26 - 28.
