White and Red Showdown at Alder
Alder Red rink hosted an Orangeville Atom division tilt between two great squads on Sunday morning. With Team White's regular goaltender Noah Thibault absent, Drew Roper from Team Orange seamlessly stepped in to help out. With great confidence in Roper, Team White hit the ice ready to play.

As Red jumped out to an early lead, White maintained their composure and continued to play their game. White played hard on the puck, moving the play out of their end and backchecking hard to intercept nearly every opportunity Red could muster. In signature White style, forced turnovers resulted in great action at the Red end as White capitalized by going to the net for rebounds and chasing with speed to keep Red on their heels.

Veteran defenceman Matt Thibault played a strong defensive game moving the puck with authority and winning battle after battle.

White plays Team Green on Sunday at 9am to wrap up the 2014 part of the season. Following this game they'll be taking a much-deserved break as they gear up for the second half starting again on January 4th.
