AAA Stars sweep weekend games, get back to .500
The AAA Stars may have turned a corner.
After falling 3-1 to the Saskatoon Contacts on Thursday, they went in to Wilcox over the weekend and won back-to-back games for the first time this season, 3-0 and 3-2 over the Notre Dame Argos.
The Argos came in with only a single win this year but nonetheless, the sweep was crucial for the Stars and should be something they can build off of moving forward.
“We talked about it after the game yesterday in the room – that now we’re at .500, we got two wins, we’ve got some games coming here and we’re going to need to battle hard,” AAA Stars coach Jean Fauchon said in a phone interview on Monday. “The guys still have the goal of they want to make it to Mac’s [AAA World Invitational], so we’ve talked about that.”
