Pet of the Week RUBY
Ruby - Collie Shepherd - 6 years old Hi! My name is Ruby. I was here back in May and got adopted but I recently came back again. I have been in a foster home while I wait for my next and hopefully forever home!! I may be 6 years old but I am still an active girl who is really enjoying 2 good walks every day! This exercise and working with me on things has really helped me a lot. I can be an anxious girl and just like with people, exercise and mental stimulation are really good for me! I really love my people and don’t always like when they leave me home alone. I would love it if my new family has someone home enough to help work on gaining this independence. I think I would be ok with older kids, like maybe 12 and older. I don’t care much for dogs, but would likely be ok with a calm and respectful dog. If you have the time and energy to get me out for walks and are willing to help me work through a few things, then you might just be the family I have been waiting for! Visit windsorhumane.org to apply to adopt me!

the Woolwich Wild 2-1 in overtime. In the final, they defeated the host team Stratford 1–0 in a shootout after a hard-fought battle in regulation and overtime. With each passing game, the Stars have applied many lessons learned to help them compete against more experienced ‘A’ level teams. They had to overcome
some adversity when Ella Statham suffered a broken elbow during the first game of the round-robin. Ella showed a lot of strength this weekend by cheering the team on and providing words of encouragement to keep the team focused on the task at hand. Overall, it was a great weekend. The first-place medal was well deserved.

The Southpoint-Essex U10 Capitals travelled to Harrow to take on Erie-Northshore last Friday. Christian Rutgers put the Caps on the scoreboard early. With 2:52 left in the first period, Southpoint went on a run with three goals in two minutes and 20 seconds led by Carter Dement on a feed from Jordyn Lefaive, followed by Conner Blain, assisted by Brody Church, then defenseman Russell Colenutt attacked for an unassisted goal. The Caps added two more goals in the second period including a beauty tic-tac-toe play assisted by Rutgers and Asher Grossi, tapped in by Ben MacQuarrie to finish the game with a 6-0 win. On Saturday, Southpoint played host to the Windsor Jr. Spitfires. The first period would prove uneventful and end up scoreless. However, the Caps would soon rekindle their mojo from the previous evening’s relentless pressure on the puck. Highlights included impressive passing from Eddie Zieba to Zander Cook to the stick of Conner Blain for a goal. Strong forechecking by Jordyn Lefaive paid off when she passed the puck out to Rutgers for another goal. Then Asher Grossi stormed in, scoring unassisted. Blain added two more goals for a hat trick. Goalie Owen Tavares and the Southpoint defense protected the net and kept the Spitfires scoreless through three periods. The Capitals finished with 5-0 win. Teamwork continues to grow and pay dividends for this hardworking crew. Southpoint is eager to hit the ice this coming weekend for a tournament in Belle River with the opening game at 8 am Friday.
U12 Ravens dominate over weekend
This past weekend the Essex-Southpoint U12 Ravens played a pair of games. On Friday night, Nov. 26, the Ravens hosted the Tecumseh Shoreline Eagles and skated away with a dominating 12-0 win. Owen Derksen and Joseph McLeod led the attack notching two goals apiece, while Maxim Pyne, Derek Dunn, Nathan Mariuz, Ben Liebrock, Jonathan Recker, AJ Youssef, Kayden Cook and Isaiah Georges rounded out the scoring. Trent Chevalier earned the shutout in net. On Sunday the Ravens traveled to Riverside to face the Rangers and the high scoring continued in a 9-0 victory. Austin Goudie paced the attack scoring two, with singles being added by McLeod, Cook, Liebrock, Youssef, Brayden Foster, Mariuz and Derksen. Chevalier, again between the pipes, earned his second shutout in as many games.
