The PeeWee

Division (ages 10-12) provided the most entertainment and suspense over

the weekend with several nail-biters and the most exciting championship

game in league history. An overtime period and two shootout rounds were

needed to determine a winner, with the Thrashers eventually edging the

Capitals as darkness loomed Sunday evening.

Gray Phelps

(5 goals) and Jesy Phelps (4 goals) led the Thrashers' offensive attack,

while Anthony Casini (7 goals) and Kevin Eckert (4 goals) provided the

Capitals with accurate and timely shooting all weekend long.

Honorable mention

goes out to Steven Beardsell of the Hurricanes, who was the tournament's

second leading scorer even though his team was eliminated in the second

round. Kevin Williams of the Ducks was awarded the season scoring title

for this division.

In the Bantam

Division (ages 13-15), the Panthers defeated the Red Wings behind the

efforts of Clayton Quamme (7 goals) and Brian Witzel (5 goals). The Red

Wings advanced to the final round through teamwork, accurate passing,

and Chris Kemeza's 5 goals. JJ Grady's amazing performance earned him

12 goals on the weekend for the Oilers, who were eliminated in the second

round. Greg Arbuckle of the Coyotes took the season division scoring title.
