Raiders Squeak by Tigers!
Raiders 15, Tigers 13
Kelowna Raiders nearly allowed their cross valley rivals, the Vernon Tigers, to take the game in the third period by again taking 7 undisciplined penalties. The Raiders managed to pull away from a 13 all tie with the exceptional play of captain Jacob Illichmann 4g,2a, Joe Brown 3g,3a , Luke Bailey 2g,4a, Chris Phillips 1g,5a and veteran Pho Heng 1g,5a. Vernon’s strong effort was led by captain Kirk Krause, Kasmir Boudreau, Brennan Plante and Trevor Mckechne.
No commentsPlayers Mourn the Passing of Dave Bannister
The entire TOSLL and it’s players were shocked yesterday to hear about one of it’s cherished veteran players, Dave Bannister (Banny), passing away. Dave was currently playing for the Kamloops Rattlers having moved back to BC from a two year hiatus in California. Previous to that, Dave played for the Kelowna Raiders and was instrumental in helping lead the team to both silver and gold provincial championships. Dave was a leader on the floor and in the dressing room and was known for his skilled, agressive, tough but fair approach to the game. He was respected by his teammates, opponents and officials alike. He will be missed!
