Hello fellow Knights!
After a disappointing finish in the Canadian Cup, we set out in the Polar Cup. We had several close matches leading up to the final vs Vancouver Echoes. There was no discounting the Echoes, a scrappy IV team that had several upsets en route to the final. We knew that winning the mid would give us the best chance for victory, as Echoes hadn't shown a CA in previous games. Therefore, a mid stacked 3-5-2 was best.
Upon kick-off, we looked to be slight favourites. It was not a great start for us as we went down 0-1 after 19'. However, a quick reply by Hossler at 22' evened the score. Cahill added the eventual game winner 3's later and Cranman added a 3rd before the half. A solid win one for the Gipper speech and Surprenant scored at 60'. The ending was secured, but like last years Maple Cup, a barbaric tackle from behind removed Tyler from our IM and we wish him a speedy recovery!
Final score 4-1, Sir Paul was named MOTM! Thanks for the great support!
