QRD U18 Weekly Report Oct. 23, 2022
The McInroy Maines Quinte Red Devils U18 team hosted two home games this past week and secured 3 points in regular season play.
The midweek match up at RCAF was the QRD squad verses the Central Ontario Wolves. In acknowledging Breast Cancer Awareness month, both teams donned their pink jerseys for warm ups and joined as group to commemorate the efforts both teams are making to support the cause. The game between the two centres was another back and forth battle. It was Quinte on a shot from Beau Reade to hit the scoreboard first. Assist came from Justin Murdoch. COW evened the score in the second and despite many efforts in the third the QRD team would settle for a tie. Dean Spry was in net for the game.
Saturday had the team at their home ice to host the North Central Predators. In a game that proved to be physical battle, the Devils rose above and took down the Predators with a 2-1 win. Reade scored the first goal for the Devils in the second set on the set up from Rylan Reid. Murdoch scored the game winner, assisted by Reade and Jared Woolley. Glen McInnes and Spry shared netminding duties after McInnes was injured during play.
