The Peninsula Atom Rep Eagles
hockey team battled both
influenza and talented opponents
last weekend on their way to two
wins and one loss.

Despite being shorthanded due
to the sickness of several players,
the Eagles earned a hard-fought
3-2 victory over the Victoria AAA
team.

In a very fluid end-to-end game,
the Eagles didn’t let fatigue get the
better of them as they dug deep to
come up with an impressive win.

“We were pretty happy with the
victory because we didn’t have too
many bodies on the bench,”
Kosick said.

Instrumental in the win over the
powerful Victoria team was the
hard work of a forward line made
up of Tommy Kosick, Blake Mun-
roe and Ryan Tilden — a line
that’s never played together before.

Also, Trevor Eeg turned im an
outstanding performance in goal,
while Garrett Matthews was tire-
less in defence.

Peninsula goalscorers were
Mark Kosick, Jame Pollock and
Jeff Antonik.

Saturday saw the Eagles suffer
an unexpected 3-1 loss to next
weekend’s Island championship
playoff opponent Cowichan Val-
ley, Kosick said.

Once again influenza was cited
as a reason for the lack of sparkle
in the Eagles’ style of play.

However, the game proved to be
a very close contest that was tied
1-1 until ten minutes from the
end.

The fully-fit Cowichan Valley
team gained the upper hand in the
final minutes as sickness took its
toll on the weary Peninsula team.

“We ran out of steam late in the
game. We just couldn’t keep our
legs going,” Kosick said.

Pollock scored the Eagles” sin-
gle goal, while Bryce McFadden
did an excellent job by frustrating
the Cowichan Valley offence for
much of the game.

A recent 6-5 loss to the Racquet
Club was avenged Feb. 19 when
the Eagles blitzed their Victoria-
based opponents 7-0.

_ Atom Eagles go 2-1 as playoffs loom

came out in the first period with
all guns blazing as it roared to a
4-0 lead.

“A really strong start put gasol-
iné in the kids’ veins and they.
never looked back,” Kosick said.

“We were skating really well
and we got off to such a fast start it
just crippled the Racquet Club.”

The rest of the game was much
the same as the first period with
the Eagles keeping their opponents
pinned in their own end as they
added three more goals.

Also Trevor Eeg did a great job
in goal, performing many fine
saves as he earned a shutout.

Spearheading the Eagles’
offence was Mark Kosick, with
four goals and three assists.

Pollock slotted home two goals
and had three assists, while Anto-
nik scored once and had two
assists.

Defenceman Sean Owens also
counterattacked well to earn three
assists.

Kosick hopes his team is back to
full strength in time for the Atom
Rep League Island playoffs, which

begin on Saturday with the Eagles _

taking on Cowichan Valley again.

“T think if we get nd of the flu
bugs, we have an excellent chance
of winning,” he said.

“We are also optimistic that we JUST US
can win the Island championships.

But it should be a very close and
