On Wednesday February 18, the Jr. Boys’ Hockey team played Upper Canada College in a rematch of last week’s game. The boys were looking to add two points to their overall total and keep their playoff hopes alive. UCC opened the scoring early in the game, but Joe Gennaro answered with a tying goal set-up by Taylor Walsh with 4:16 left in the first. UCC countered with a goal just over a minute later retaking the lead 2-1 in the first. With just over a minute left Matthew Lovick tied the game on a goal assisted by Joe Gennaro. Zack Masciangelo was able to give LCS the lead, scoring a goal assisted by Trevor Smith with 42 seconds left in the period. In the second period the boys were unable to capitalize on their scoring chances and went into the third period down 5-3. The LCS boys continued to battle hard and play determined hockey, bringing themselves within one goal twice in the third. A determined Matthew Lovick scored his second of the game on a short-handed snipe and Tristan Walsh scored with a breakaway dangle. Unfortunately the boys were unable to complete the comeback and lost 7-5 in a hard fought game. The team will look to finish the season with a win when they host Trinity College School on Saturday.

 

On Wednesday, February 18, the 1st Girls' Hockey team met up with Adam Scott at the Kinsmen Arena in Peterborough to play a friendly game. The girls arrived ready to play and took to the ice with great energy. The pace of the game was quick from the start. Kristen Evans scored the first goal for LCS late in the first period. 

 

After a motivational speech by guest coach Andrew Johnston, the girls returned to the ice during the second period looking to score. Every player made scoring opportunities possible. Katie Garland and Vanessa Smith scored in the second period. Karen Collins held down the net to finish the game with a shut out. The final score was 3 - 0. 

 

The 2nd Girls’ Volleyball team hosted Toronto French School on Wednesday afternoon, and came away with the win! The girls played well throughout the entire match, keeping their communication and spirits positive, even when a member of the team had an injury in the middle of the third set. Highlights of the game include: Shelly’s awesome dives, Becka stepping up and playing great in the setting position, Fiona’s sneaky serves, Reyna’s great passes, Christina stepping in to play middle and all the support for the bench!
