What a weekend for Team NOHA! Our U16 players headed south for the Alliance Face Off, taking on some tough competition and representing Northern Ontario with pride.

From Friday's opening games through Sunday's final matchups, both Team Red and Team Black showed determination, teamwork and plenty of hard work on the ice.

Team Red finished the weekend with an impressive three wins after Friday's opening loss to the London Jr. Knights. The team bounced back Saturday with a 7-3 victory over the Cambridge Jr. RedHawks and a 6-1 win over the Sarnia-Lambton Jr. Sting. They carried that momentum into Sunday, defeating the Windsor Jr. Spitfires 4-2!

Team Black battled through a challenging start, opening with losses to the Waterloo Wolves and Huron-Perth Lakers. The team responded with back-to-back wins and strong team performances, earning a 4-0 win over the Kitchener Jr. Rangers before closing out Sunday with a 3-1 victory over the Brantford 99ers!

Across the weekend, Team NOHA combined for 27 goals and 40 assists! That's plenty of offence, teamwork and players getting involved in the action.
