Dairy Queen Tykes hold on to beat Aylmer
On Saturday, January 02, the Ingersoll Dairy Queen Tyke team travelled to Aylmer to take on the Aylmer Green team. The Dairy Queen tykes were short-staffed, with only seven skaters and a goalie. However, the kids competed with lots of heart, and played an excellent game.
Aylmer opened the scoring about 8 minutes into the game, but it was quickly tied up by Diary Queen’s Aidan Berto. Dairy Queen then went on to take the lead a few minutes later, and never gave it back up. The game see-sawed, with Aylmer tying the game once and coming close a second time, but a game saving block by goaltender Will Jones kept Ingersoll in the lead. The final score was 5-4 for Dairy Queen. Other scorers for Ingersoll were Logan White and Keegan Purdy, with 2 goals each. Assists went to Brennan Rupert, Ethan Laporte, Logan White and Ryan Bruschetto. Ingersoll Dairy Queen Tyke play their next game on Saturday, January 9, at Port Stanley.
