Final Score:...North York Astros.....2....York Region Shooters....0...

Attendance was about 150 which was high for the Astros but they'd invited some minor league clubs to play pre game and halftime games so that brought the parents out too.

Astros goalie Eddie Kehoe got the shutout which was a surprise as just over a month ago I was told he'd left the team because he wasn't guaranteed the number one spot. Actually both goalies were good but Shooters goalie Roberto Scala made two mistakes that resulted in both goals. New coach of the Shooters is David Rumack. (Yeah now wouldn't it be nice if The Fan's Stormin' Norman Rumack would mention his brother on his radio show).
