The Revelstoke Atom Grizzlies won their own three-day tournament on Sunday during a real nail-biter of a finals match against Windermere.
Windermere young players proved to be tough, skilled competitors, especially during the second and third periods when they tied the Grizzlies twice, 2-2 and 3-3 before the Grizzlies got their go-ahead goal late in the third period.
Here are a couple of photos from the game:
