Hartney Arena

Wednesday, December 21st

Whether you are still actively playing the game or not we hope you are able to join us.  With many of the Alumni returning from their university/college teams for the holidays it is a good way to get old and new together to catch up on everyone’s activities for the first half of the season or for the opportunity to reconnect with some of those old teammates/coaches you have not seen for years.

 We hope you are able to join us on December 21.  We have tried to connect with all former Wildcats but please pass this on as we do not have all addresses for former Wildcat players.  If you could let us know if you will be attending and what you have been doing since graduating that would be appreciated.

You can respond to us at svrc@mymts.net or mhunt@westman.wave.ca

Hope to see you at the rink on December 21st.

The Westman Wildcats were up against a very strong Yellowjacket team and had difficulty adjusting to the tempo and the intensity of the game and ended up with a score of 9 – 0. Following a tour of the University the Wildcats had an opportunity to watch UMD vs Wisconsin. Brigette Lacquette a former Westman Wildcat now suits up for UMD. The UMD and Wisconsin women’s ice hockey programs are aligned with the revered Western Collegiate Hockey Association, a NCAA Division I circuit.

On Sunday the Westman Wildcats were up against St. Scholastica. The College of St. Scholastica  upgraded women's hockey to varsity status, beginning with the 2010-11 school year and is part of the Northern Collegiate Hockey Association (NCHA). Again the Wildcats found themselves up against a very strong team but were able to play with much more intensity than in the previous game. The score in this game ended up 5 to 1 with the lone goal scorer being Teagan Pringle with an assist to Megan Robertson. The weekend was a great opportunity for the girls to see the level of play at the University and College level and the chance to talk with former teammates. The team now looks forward to their next league game which will be played Wednesday, October 26 , at 8:00pm in the Hartney arena against Yellowhead.
