Omar Hopkinson takes a penalty corner strike for Supernova.
GCC Vintage’s Damon Woodroffe had his powerful strike from a penalty corner stopped by Antonio’s Hicker’s custodian, Terrence Shaw.
Abosaide Cadogan was once again the lone scorer during Bingo Spartans second 2-1 defeat against Woodpecker Hikers.
GCC and Hikers shared the spoils in the men’s and women’s First Division competitions, while the SHC Silencers chalked up their first Second Division win in the annual GTT National Indoor Hockey Championships at the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall.
Bounty GCC 2-1 Supernova
Bounty GCC seemed the likely favourites going into their men’s First Division match against the inexperienced Supernova, but the youngsters made it hard work for the seasoned Bourda boys. After some well fought opening minutes, GCC began to wear on the structure of the Supernova side and found their way through for a few goal-scoring opportunities.
GCC got their breakthrough and first goal of the match through a converted penalty stroke by Kevin Spencer. Supernova then pressed on and in final minute of the first half, Warren Williams capitalized on a GCC defensive mix-up to draw the game even. Although GCC had the greater possession and more opportunities, Supernova fought to the end but could not avoid a defeat when Kareem McKenzie hammered home the game winner for GCC in the 24th minute for a 2-1 win.
Woodpecker Hikers 2-1 Bingo Spartans
The Woodpecker Hikers versus Bingo Spartans women’s First Division match was almost identical to the men’s match as the experienced Hikers came through a hard-fought battle to steal a 2-1 victory in the closing minutes against the young Spartans. While the Hikers appeared the stronger side and created more opportunities, the youthful Spartans were more competitive than expected and came close to drawing the match when Sarah Klautky’s penalty corner strike in the second half rattled the uprights.
Hikers Captain Nicole Eastman opened the scoring in the 14th minute with a penalty corner flick high into the right side of the Spartans net. Abosaide Cadogan managed to draw level for the Spartans two minutes later but a Latacia Chung goal three minutes from full time secured the 2-1 win for the Woodpecker Hikers.
Vintage GCC cruised to a 7-1 victory over Antonio’s Hikers in their first Over-35 match of the competition, while GBTI GCC Spice gave the Bingo Spartans their second loss of the night, this time in the women’s Second Division competition by 3-1.
In the men’s Second Division matches, the SHC Silencers edged past Phoenix 2-1, while the Hikers Cadets and Old Fort Rogue battled to a 2-2 draw.
