Kemptville blanks Smiths Falls in CCHL league play
Smiths Falls Record News
In the Smiths Falls Jr. A Bears only game of the week tonight, the visiting Kemptville 73’s wasted no time putting a stop to their three-game win streak.
The 73’s shutdown the offensive punch that the Bears had been gaining some momentum with and blanked the home team 3-0 in front of 400 fans.
It was a no-score deadlock through the first period with both Bo Taylor (Smiths Falls) and Nicholas Hodgins (Kemptville) turning away the snipers.
It wasn’t until the Bears were down Hunter Garlasco for hooking that the 73’s were able to score as Alex Row found the net with help from Bobby Dow and Matt Tugnut.
In the third, Kemptville sealed the win with two more as Row scored his second of the game, and Dow has the other. Assists went to Noah Rowe, Adam Alavi, Tugnutt and Neal Samanski.
Game stars were Row for Kemptville (first); Taylor for Smiths Falls (second), and Hodgins for Kemptville (third).
