Akwesasne Jr. B Wolves faced off with the Char-lan Rebels at the A’nowara’ko:wa Arena in Kawehno:ke (Cornwall Island) Nov. 8. The Wolves were leading the first half 3:2, but tied 3:3 in the last period and lost 3:4 in overtime.

“Even though record doesn’t show it we are a good team,” said Assistant Coach Aronhiaies Herne at the Nov. 8 game, “We are building a foundation for the club and hockey in Akwesasne.”

Although they have won no games, they have shown dedication and persistence in many ties and overtime losses which promises a win soon. The next home game will be on Nov. 14, 7:15pm start time against Morrisburg at A’nowara’ko:wa Arena on Kawehno:ke (Cornwall Island).
