Remember those words. The Brokerlink Ingersoll Express Atom Rep team were matched up against the Mooretown Flags in the semi finals of the OMHA playoffs.
"Most people have the will to win, few people have the will to prepare to win" -
Bobby KnightThe series would be fantastic for the fans of both teams from start to finish.
Our Express won the coin flip and had the start on home ice.
Game one
Ingersoll 2 - Mooretown 0
Game two
Mooretown 3 - Ingersoll 3
Game three
Ingersoll 1- Mooretown 2
Game four
Mooretown 2 - Ingersoll 1
I will pause for a moment to finish how this week with game four was to go. The following night our boys hosted the Aylmer Flames and dropped their third straight game. With the boys feeling down and out our coaching staff pressed the boys to persevere and to over come.
A few motivational videos made there way to our boys to see if the tides could be turned and our "Come Back Boys" could "MAKE IT COUNT" and that they did!
Game five
Ingersoll 3 - Mooretown 2
Game six and the final
Mooretown 1 - Ingersoll 2
With that win giving our Express the lift to the OMHA finals!
The Express are a team that seems no matter how many times they get knocked down they step right back up.
