Midget AA Hounds skate to league championship in Red Deer
RED DEER, AB – After years of turning around the Medicine Hat Midget AA Hounds program, the ascent to the mountaintop was finally made complete on Saturday.
Jacob Milne scored twice for the Hounds in a dominant 7-1 thrashing of Red Deer CanPro Chiefs, giving the Hounds a two-game sweep to capture the 2019 South Central Alberta Hockey League championship.
In the process of clinching the SCAHL title, the Hounds swept all eight of their playoff games and outscored their opponents 41-12 on their way to the hoisting the league banner.
Red Deer struck first on Saturday with a power play goal with three minutes left in the opening frame from Kobe Karol, but Milne responded with a goal of his own 34 seconds later.
