The Sq A’s take home a 2nd place trophy in the Scott Benedict Memorial Thanksgiving Tournament.  They start the tourney against a tough Apple Valley/Burnsville Firehawks Team.  The end of regulation play ended in a 3-3 tie, moving both teams to a shootout.  The Irish come up short in the shootout, but will take the official tie against the Firehawks.  The second game against Rochester brought a 6-2 win for the Irish, in their 2nd match up of the season.  Scoring for the Irish were:  Toll (2), T. McCracken, Barrett, Sherman and Garrity.  In the semi-finals, the Irish take on Mahtomedi, with another 6-2 win and sending them to the Championship game.  Securing the win for the Irish were:  Garrity, Toll, Sherman, Barrett, Kegley and Heusinkveld.  Great job in net by Denny and Finn!  On hardware Sunday, the Irish would face Minnetonka for the chip.  Irish would come up short against the Skippers team, taking home a 2nd place trophy.  Great job, boys!
