The Sturgeon Sting Midget AA gave big over the weekend both on and off the ice. The club took on the Leduc Roughnecks Friday night at home and earned a 4-2 win. Saturday saw the Sting drop a 3-1 decision to the KC Colts in Legal.
Friday night’s win saw the Sting emerge from 1-1 and 2-2 first- and second-period ties to end double their tally in the third.
Both Friday and Saturday’s home games included a food and toy drive. Sturgeon Sting Midget AA Coach Glen Starman was the first to hand over items for Project Christmas Drive to volunteer Megan Witter.
Non-perishable food donations and unwrapped toy donations were accepted at both games to support those less fortunate.
One prize was presented to someone who donated to the cause during the two games, and the winner of tickets to the Jan. 4 Oilers vs. Colorado Avalanche game was drawn during Saturday’s game. Winners were not available as of our press deadline.
The Sting play their third game of the weekend Sunday night on the road against the St. Albert Blues.
