Calgary, Alberta (Aug. 5, 2007) – The J.C. Palmer Memorial 12 Goal Tournament started Sunday, Aug. 5, 2007 with two games.
Game one saw Millarville defeat Cymric Glen by a score of 13 – 8. After leading 8 – 1 at the half, Fred H. Mannix and Co. needed to do little in the second three and allowed Dyan Leshon Pettigrew’s foursome to stage a comeback of sorts. Jeff Hall, silent in the first half, scored seven goals (6 fouls) to make it seem closer. Nacho Lezica scored the other goal for the cat people in the first.
For Millarville, Daniel Roenisch had five, Mannix four, Julian Mannix sunk three foul shots, and Julie Roenisch scored once.
The second game of the afternoon was even more out of balance as Tusk Energy rolled over Palmer Ranch 10 – 2. The Oiler’s Matt Sekera led the goal getters with six, John Rooney grabbed three (2 fouls), and Joe Henderson needed but one.
The replies for the cowboys came from Marcello Rodriquez-Abiatti and Pedro Orellana with one each.
