The Major Rookie 2 Cardinals hosted the Brampton Royals in their Home Opener last night at TB McQuesten Park.
After two tough losses on the road against the Burlington Bulls 2 and Mississauga SW Twins 2, and a handful of rain outs, this young team was hungry for some blue skies and their first win of the season.
The boys showed great defensive improvement from their first two games which resulted in a 5-2 victory to send the home crowd away with a win.
The young Cardinals begin tournament play in the 12th annual Cardinals Classic in St. Thomas this weekend vs the Guelph Royals.
