National Aboriginal Hockey Championship- Miramichi, N.B.
April 1st, 2005
Teams from across Canada travelled to Miramichi, New Brunswick this week both Male and Female to play in the National Aboriginal Hockey Championship. Team Atlantic, Boys team played very well this year placing first overall before going into the quarter finals. Nathan Francis from New Brunswick and Scott Sack from Nova Scotia were selected for the All- Star line-up. Both players lead the scoring race for Team Atlantic.
Team Atlantic played Saskatchewan in the Semi-Finals defeating them 7-6 before advancing to the Gold Medal round. In the Gold Medal round Team Atlantic played against Ontario North, losing in a well played game going into overtime and losing 4-3 to take the silver medal. We are very proud of Team Atlantic this is the first year that Team Atlantic has made it to the medal rounds. Well done, Boys.
The girls played some pretty tough games but did not make it to the play-offs better luck next year.
