Dropping the Gloves on Cancer Tourney

The two Akwesasne based teams in this tournament made it to the Championship game in their respective division in last weekend's Massena tournament.

The FastBreakers girl's team made it to the championship game; however, some of their players skate for the Akwesasne Wild of the National Capital Women's Hockey League. Their season opener was at the same time so they were forced to withdraw so players could run to the Anowarako:wa Arena.
