The Norwell Varsity Girls hockey team came home with the championship from a York University tournament in Toronto on Jan. 10. In game one, the team defeated Markham 3-1 on goals by Ella Black, Presley Brooking and Peyton McBeth. Game two was a tight battle with Humberside, which Norwell lost 2-0. In game three against Leaside, a lone goal by Carley Crispin secured the win. In game four against Angus, Norwell went on a scoring spree in an 8-1 victory. In the finals, Norwell met up with the Humberside team, which had defeated them earlier in the day. After taking a pass from Black, Crispin went bar down on the goalie with just over three minutes left in the game to score the championship-winning goal. “Congratulations to all team players and goalies who worked hard and showed great sportsmanship,”
team officials stated. From left: front, Raegan Cressman, Carley Crispin, Shelby Foster, Madi Klaassen and Chelsey Grice; back, Peyton McBeth, Mary MacKenzie, Elizabeth Mallett, Leah LeCourtois, Chloe Kaye, Ella Black, Alexa Marquardt and Tori Grice. Submitted photo
