A whole lot of Ice can chip away at the Rockies.
The Okotoks Junior B Ice went into the Calgary Rockies’ barn and came away with an 11-7 victory in both teams’ first games in the Rocky Mountain Lacrosse League’s season opener.
The Ice’s veteran goalie, Hayden Corney, who is in his third year with the team, got the win in net for Okotoks.
The Ice was led by Graham Corbett and Dylan Smith who both had hat tricks in the game.
Lane Malcolm carried his scoring touch with the Okotoks Bisons’ hockey team to lacrosse with a pair of goals. Rounding out the scoring for the Ice were Mark Corbett, Sam Betchel and Kieron McKinstry with a goal each.
McKinstry’s was the first of his junior career.
The Ice’s next game is tonight, May 7, when they play the Calgary Sabrecats at the South Fish Creek Arena.
