And they are off!! The start of the season for some was great, others not so much. Manville Pizza and Quick Dam started us off. Specifically, Shawn Smith started the season with the first goal. The Dam was way better than last season already. 1-1 by the end of the first and then, it was all Quick Dam. The orange got 2 in the second and stretched the lead 4-1 mid third, which would be the final of this one. Shawn Smith with a goal and 2 assists to lead his team. 4-1 Quick Dam.

In the second game, Votta Properties went up against Green Goddess. A clean first period as the two heavy weights bobbed and weaved through it. In the second, 2 back to backs in the 4 minute mark, would be the catalyst for Votta. They came out strong in the third within a minute of the drop. Another one midway through to stretch it to 4-0. Green Goddess would finally put one up to split the third. Votta would get 2 more to finish the game. Ricky Votta would get the last goal, punctuating the game. 6-1 Votta Properties.

Onto the late game. Final Touch and Vescera Law went at it. Final Touch would get out in front early and often with a 3-0 lead in the first. The foot never left the pedal and steamed through the second with 3 more. With Vescera firmly in the rear view, Final was smooth sailing. Apparently Vescera was using the same wind as the would put up 3 quick ones at the beginning of the third. Inconceivable!!! In any case Final Touch would get one back and close it out 7-3. Kevin Webster was a beast with a couple of goals and an assist.

Guys and girls, it is great to get the summer season started. Hope you all have a great weekend.
