Valken Adrenaline Takes 2nd Place in 16UAAA at TORHS Winter Nationals!

It was a packed house at Joe Dumars for the TORHS Winter Nationals with great teams in all divisions, including an exciting Pro Division with the TOUR Mudcats, Revision Buffalo Wings, and the LA Pama Cyclones and Itan Chavira all in attendance. The battle for the Bantam division was clearly between Valken Adrenaline and Team Advanced Care right from the get go, two very storng teams with very talented players. At the front was Team Advance Care, who also took runner up in the 18U Midget Division, with Adrenaline close on their heels throughout the tournament. In their playoff game Adrenaline defeated Storm 93s, 4-3 in overtime in front of a packed house, sending Adrenaline to the Bantam AAA Championship game vs the stacked Advance Care team. TAC jumped out quick with 2 goals, just 30 seconds apart but Adrenaline regained control and Alec Farrington and Austin Gateman tallied 2 goals, ending the opening half with a score of 3-2. Adrenaline opened the 2nd half with a quick strike, but their goal was called off and the boys experienced a bit of a blow to momentum based on that disappointing call, leaving an opening for TAC, who found their groove and jumped to a 6-3 lead by the middle of the second period. Adrenaline came back with a goal by Bryan Kosciolek, but TAC closed out the win by answering with 3 more to end the game 9-4. Adrenaline played a good game and came away with the Silver, not bad for only their 2nd tournament together as a newly formed team, and having taken the Gold in Bantam AAA at the Thanksgiving TOUR Cup, last month. We are very excited to see what lies ahead for the Valken Adrenaline team as they go into their tournament season and head to Nationals.

Good luck Adrenaline, and keep those medals coming!
