MONROE - Last weekend, the Monroe Avalanche Mite B team, that consists of first year mite players ages 5-8 years-old, squared off with the Dubuque B squad at SLICE in Monroe.
The game was tied 0-0 after the first period, but Monroe eventually fell to Dubuque 4-0. Payton Stauffacher had 28 saves in the contest. Then, the Monroe Mite B team traveled to Middleton and squared off against the Middleton Wings C team. The game was tied 0-0 after two periods and finally in the third period, Riley Jones from Darlington put one in the net and it turned out to be all the Avalanche needed for the 1-0 victory. The goal was assisted by Heath Bear. Stauffacher tended the net and had 18 saves in the shutout.
The Monroe Avalanche Mite A team consisting of players ages 7-8, played two home games against Sun Prairie A and Waunakee A and lost 6-1 and 6-0, respectively.
One bright spot in the game versus Sun Prairie was Damian Keilhauer scored his first goal ever.
Most of the players on the mites rosters played a session of ATOMS. Children age 4-8 can register to play with the ATOMS now at SLICE. The second session begins Jan 1. Contact Liz Gerhard at gerhard1@tds.net or go to www.monroeyouthhockey.com for team information.
