0-3 weekend for KHA

The Kootenay Hockey Academy program continues to make progress in it's initial JPHL season.

The club had a tough start to last weekend's showcase event in a 6-1 loss to the Lloydminster Athletics, Kootenay's lone goal came in the third period via Soren Nicol.

The Kootenay boys had a better showing versus Lethbridge United on Saturday.

United managed to wrangle a 3-1 win over KHA, Curtis Cawte netted a third period goal to break Lethbridge's shutout bid, while the Academy squad outshot their Alberta counterparts 9-6 in the second period.

KHA's offence began to find its legs in Sunday's clash with the Calgary Rockies.

Three KHA skaters picked left with multi-point games in the 8-3 loss to Calgary.

The Kootenay Hockey Academy's next JPHL Showcase is happening in Spruce Grove November 10-12.
