Snappers capture Bantam Championship !
       Hammer Heads not enough in King of the Hill Final

August 30, 2007
Clifton Park, NY
(All Wire Services)

Snappers, #1 seed, undefeated,
their only blemish...... a tie with,
you guessed it............. the
Hammer Heads.  In their last
meeting the Snappers had to
come from behind to tie the game.

Who will be king at the Bantam
level.  Are the Hammer Heads for
real?  Can the Snappers be beat?

This game will answer all those questions,  Game on!

First period, pace is fast and
furious, excellent chances by
both teams, goalies playing
great hockey, not giving an inch.  Any goal will have to be earned.  Finally with just one minute to go in the first period the
Sanppers scored to exit the period with a 1- 0 lead.  Nick McKinney with a sneaky shot, assisted by Tyler Lingel & John Doak.

Period #2 opens with the same urgency!  at the 13:12 mark, Tyler Lingel with a rip, high blocker - Sanppers 2 - 0.  Assist again
to John Doak.  Three minutes later Nick McKinney scored a great goal, unassisted, off the face off.  Snappers 3 - 0.  Tyler
Lingel followed with a blast from the top of the circle, Joe Naylor with the assist.  Tyler Lingel and Brad Willows followed with
2 more Sanpper goals, assist to Greg Stoya.  Snappers 6 - 0.  Finally Anthony Langevin scored to break the streak.  Assists to
Alex Cavert & Mike Fitts.  Period ends Snappers 6 - Hammer Heads 1.

Period #3 opens with Kyle Sacks scoring with an assist to Brandon Wormley.  Could this be "the comeback".  Hammer Heads
with 2 goals in a row.  But no, Tyler Lingels scores again, unassisted, for the Snappers to close out the scoring.  Snappers 7,
Hammer Heads 2.  Congratulations to the Snappers - Bantam King of the Hill Champions.

Thank you to the Hammer Heads for a great season!
