The Southern Stars Squirt A's swept the tournament field to finish 6-0 at the Squirt Tier III CHC State Championships at the Rinks at Shelton this past weekend.
They posted wins against Greenwich (Thursday night), then Darien and Hamden on Saturday in round 1, beating Stamford in the Quarterfinals, then Hamden again in the Semi-Finals on Sunday and closed the deal with a 3-2 victory over Avon Monday night.
The Stars claim the Tier III Championship and the honor of representing not only SCYH, but the State of Connecticut at the New England Tier III Sectional Tournament in Burlington, VT the weekend of March 16.
The regional tournament bid caps an amazing season for the Squirt As, highlighted by tournament championship wins in Woonsocket, RI, the Hamden Holiday Tournament and now the CHC States. The Squirt A players, coaches and families would especially like to thank all the Southern parents and players who came out to support them at the CHCs. It was a great show of Southern Star spirit and truly appreciated.
Congratulations to Coaches Pete Capone, Troy Earley, Ty White and our Southern Star Squirt As. Good luck in Vermont. GO STARS!
