"The boys from OV played hard in last night's overtime game. Although we finished on the wrong side of the 3 to 2 score, the boys played with great effort! Being down early 0 to 2, they did not give up and came back and tied it up 2 to 2. Both teams had opportunities to score. Goals were scored by Braeden and Owen Davis, and Austin Brown had an assist on a nice set piece. Keep working, boys, there many games left in the season. Thank you to all who come to support our Vikings!" -- Coach Preston
