U16 Lakers continue to roll with the road win over the RedHawks

The Huron-Perth Lakers U16 AAA squad continued their strong start to the 2025-2026 ALLIANCE season with a dominant 5-1 win on the road over the Cambridge Jr. RedHawks on Nov. 14.

Joseph Haskett got the Lakers on the board in the first period with his fourth goal of the season midway through the first period. Colton Van Geffen notched his second goal of the season on the powerplay late in the period to give the Lakers a 2-0 lead after twenty minutes.

Callum Brooks scored his tenth and eleventh goals of the season in the second period to put the Lakers' lead at 4-0 through 40 minutes of play.

Evan Fisher's sixth of the season gave the Lakers a commanding 5-0 lead before Cambridge scored midway through the final frame to prevent a shutout bid by Lakers goaltender Rylan Da Costa. Ethan Bridges led the Lakers with three assists.

Huron-Perth improved to a league-best 13-1-0 this season. Head coach Jason Brooks was pleased with the team's overall performance.   

“I thought we had a good first two periods. We skated well. We got in on the forecheck, created a lot of turnovers, and then capitalized on our chances,” Brooks said.

“We got a little bit comfortable with our lead in the third. Maybe got a little casual, but ultimately, I'm happy we got the two points. We got the win, and (that’s what) we came here to do.”
