2019 OMHA Championships
The Barrie Colts Minor Atom AAA team finished their season with a very strong performance in the OMHA's
After losing their first game to the Richmond Hill Coyotes 3 - 1 the Barrie Colts rebounded nicely beating the Southern Tier Admirals 4-1. Saturdays first game was against he top ranked Whitby Wildcats and the Colts gave them everything and more. Trailing 1-0 the Colts answered quickly to take a 2-1 lead, and always had an answer for the Wildcats, never gave up and was one of the most exciting games of the tournament. It ended in a 6-6 tie.
Saturday afternoon's contests had the Colts face the Grey Bruce Highlanders, the top team from the SCTA who had just previously beat Whitby 6-2. With stellar goaltending and defensive play the Barrie Colts went on the beat the big powered Highlanders by a score of 3-1 and in the process earned the top seed after the round robin and a spot in the gold medal game and knocking the Highlanders out of contention. Unfortunately the boys fell short losing to Whitby in the finals but earned a well deserved silver medal!!
CONGRATS BOYS!!!!
