A huge test was presented to the Hurricanes squad this past weekend with two home games against the first place Bay Gulls and the always tough Halifax Hawks.  Prior to the weekend set, the Hurricanes had captured 17 of a possible 18 points in their past 9 games and knew full well they would need to be ready for their competition.

Away from their home confines of Queens Place in Liverpool for this weekend, the squad had to play their home games at the brand new LCLC complex in Bridgewater.  The beautiful facility and the fans were ready to see some great NSMBHL action.

On Saturday, a complete 50 minute effort from every Hurricane player sent the high flying first place Bay Gulls home with only their second loss of the season.  Offensive and defensive efforts resulted in a 5 - 2 win for the Hurrricanes.

A short turn around and the team was facing an always tough Halifax squad Sunday morning.  From the get go, Hurricane players were ready to make it a complete weekend.  Again, with a solid team effort, another victory on the weekend was in the books by defeating the Hawks by a score of 5 - 2.

With the wins, the Hurricanes only sit 3 points out of first place in the NSMBHL and two points out of second gathering 21 of 22 possible points in their last 11 games.  Great job guys !

This weekend, the team is on the road to New Brunswick for the Maritime Challenge Cup tournament in Saint John.

GO HURRICANES !!!!!!
