Neepawa Titans U15 win gold at Provincials

By Banner Staff

While it was an incredible weekend all around for the Neepawa Minor Hockey Association (See additional details on page 12), the crowning achievement for the program happened in Hartney, as the U15 Titans won gold at Provincials.
The Titans were one of ten teams competing in the Hockey Manitoba U15 B Rural Provincials. Their first game was a showdown on Friday, Mar. 6 against the Dauphin Kings. Neepawa was able to leave the ice with an impressive 6-2 win. Brooks Hockin was named the Player of the Game for Neepawa, while his teammate, Kyson Lapointe was the Hardest Worker Award recipient.
The next day, the Titans would face a club from Winkler, and skated away with a solid 10-4 victory.
Zane Jakubowski was the Player of the Game, and Easton McKee picked up Hardest Worker honours.

Those wins, along with the impressive goal differential of +10, secured Neepawa first place in the round robin portion of the event.
The Titans would head into the semi-finals with a pairing against a familar opponent in Dauphin. The result would end up being the same as before, with the Titans gliding to an easy 10-2 win. Easton McKee was named the Player of the Game and Maxwell Funk collected the Hardest Worker Award.
In the final, Neepawa played Carberry/Souris, and picked up the 5-0 win.
Huckleberry Brown received the Player of Game award for Neepawa, and Everett Armstrong picked the Hardest Worker prize.
Congratulations to the players, coaches and everyone involved with the team.
