The Hurricanes scored a total of 19 goals, including 13 in one game, in the four games they competed in during the weekend-long tournament.

The tournament ran from Jan. 11-13.

The Hurricanes are coached by Tom Wojciechowski, Dan Coulter, Mike Miller and Mike Gillett.

Members of the team are: Joel Venditelli, Tony Hiltz, Mike Kitchen, Eric Dougherty, Stephen Gillett, Jake Worrell, Jake DePompolo, Wally Wojciechowski, Mitch Adam, Ryan Coulter, Adam Cross, Steven Yelle, Daniel Bacon, Kyle Grzywacz, Brandon Miller and Matt Kapushinski.

"We are a little underaged when compared to the rest of the teams we play," coach Tom Wojciechowski said. "I have mostly 15-16 year olds playing against 19-20 year olds.

"But we played our tails off and we came away with second place. Not too bad."
