Local hockey teams
go for gold in Boise
Wells Fargo Winter Games
If skate sharpeners at Sturtevants
are wondering why they have been so busy lately they should check out
the schedule for the Wells Fargo Winter Games.
This weekend’s 15th
annual hockey tournament, staged at Ice World in Boise, features 32
teams, including eight from the Sun Valley area.
Local squads include 2003
runner-up Whitehead Landscaping in the Advanced A division, which also
features a squad from Boise State University.
The Sawtooth Rangers (last year’s
silver medalist) and Silver Blades (bronze medalist) will play in the
six team Intermediate A class.
The Chiefs and Vipers will vie for
first in the nine-team B division. Last year the Chiefs won the C
bracket championship, 4-3 over Play It Again Sports.
There are two women’s divisions,
the four-team B bracket and the two-team A. The Fury and Fury Too will
go for gold against the Goaldiggers and Thomas in the B class. The
defending champion Sunsets will play the Boise Blades twice to decide
the A victor.
There is no admission charge for
spectators.
