The Shanahan Tournament for the Minor Atom Rebels started out with a heartbreaking loss to a very talented Barrie Colts Team. The boys rebounded with wins over London and Buffalo and entered the round of 16 with a 7th place ranking. They proceeded to beat the Markham Waxers and then on to the quarter finals where they defeated the Whitby Wildcats 5-3. The stage was set for a semi-final match up with the Vaughan Kings who had handed the Rebels their first regular season loss just 3 days earlier. The Rebels defeated the Kings 3-1 and met the Barrie Colts in the finals. Rebel pride was restored when the boys defeated Barrie 6-5 in the Championship Game to avenge the round robin loss to ultimately become The Shanahan International Minor Atom Champions. Congratulations to the boys on a hard fought Tournament win and especially for their resiliency and determination in bouncing back. Way to go boys!!!!!
