The WestTel Youth Roller Hockey League played its second series of games last Saturday and once again fans were treated to some very exciting Cayman hockey.

Both Peewee games were tight contests with the Appleby Sharks and Five-Continents Leafs coming away with victories.  The first game saw the Appleby Sharks defeat the Vampt Oilers 6-4 with Andrew Antonysraj being the Sharks player of the game. 

Leon Domladis and Ethan Hersant were both nominated as the Oilers players of the game for their performances.  Hersant is one of the new additions to the Oilers line-up this season, after moving up from the Atom division over the holiday break. 

Oilers’ Coach Dan Etherington commented on the team’s loss.

“Ethan played great in goal,” Etherington said. “We gave up an early lead after our team stopped playing their “break-out” game and got caught playing a little too greedy.  We know what to work on for next week.” 

Game two saw a nail biter between the Five-Continents Leafs and Hurleys Hawks, which ended 7-6 in favour of the Leafs. 

In the Atom division the LOM Capitals closed off a tight 8-7 game against the Eats Blazers with Cameron Galloway earning the Capitals player of the game for his two points. 

The Animal House Penguins defeated the KPMG Senators 5-2 in the closing Atom match-up. 

The Novice division had two high scoring matches in favour of the Coldwell-Banker Rangers and dms Bruins. Both games ended 9-2 as the Walkers Blue Iguanas and XN Financial Flames lost respectively.

The mighty Mites, the league’s youngest division, enjoyed their second series of half-court games. The Mites division will see half-court games until the mid-term break in April.
