The Estevan Power Dodge bantam A Chargers closed out their season against Springside in their two-game, total-points provincial playoff series.

They lost 7-0 at home on March 6 and dropped a 10-0 decision on March 8.

In Game 1, coach Trevor Morrison said that his team was able to keep it close after the first period, but as the game progressed Springside kept getting better.

“As the game keeps going, they chip away and they get another one here and another one there and next thing you know you lose 7-0,” Morrison said.

In the second game Morrison noticed the same thing as he said that Springside is a well-rounded team and play exceptional at every aspect of the game.

“They got lots of players, they’re talented, they skate hard, and they don’t quit,” he said.

 It was the second straight weekend that Estevan was up against the No.1 team in the league and Morrison said they played them the best they could.

At the beginning of the season Morrison’s main goal for his team was to play Springside in the league and provincial playoffs because he knew that they were going to be the team to beat.

Overall he was proud with the way his team finished the season, winning a league and provincial playoff series, but said it was unfortunate that they couldn’t pull out the wins.

Even though they fell short accomplishing their ultimate goal, Morrison believes that his team is better than what they were.

“From the beginning of the year to where we ended, all of the girls improved and we became a better team.”
