Petes Strong Effort Comes Up Short

PETERBOROUGH, ON - Despite a valiant effort by the Peterborough Petes at the Hershey Centre in Mississauga, the Majors were able to fend off a late game push to beat the Petes 4-3 Friday night. With the win, the Majors extend their winning streak to six games and with the loss, the Petes see their record fall to 8-9-0.

Strong play by rookie goaltender Andrew D'Agostini and continued success by the line combination of Pat Daley, Ryan Spooner, and Matt Puempel kept the Petes within striking distance for most of the game against a strong Majors' squad who crept into the CHL Mastercard Top 10 rankings this past week.

The Petes now head off to the National Capital Region for a meeting with the Ottawa 67's at the Urbandale Centre on Monday morning at 10:30 AM. The game will be the end of a long weekend for the Petes as they leave tomorrow morning. First stop will be at the Scotiabank Centre to catch a meeting between the Ottawa Senators and Zach Bogosian's Atlanta Thrashers. The maroon and white will continue their journey to Parliament Hill with a guided tour by local MP Dean Del Mastro.

For more on this trip and for a recap of Monday morning's game stay tuned Monday afternoon.
