Big sisters rule as Ryerson Rams whip Wildcats 5 to 1

They say that age doesn’t matter that much in young women’s hockey but it must have been something that gave the Ryerson Rams that big sister edge they used to whip the Leaside Wildcats 5 to 1 in exhibition play at Mattamy Arena Saturday night. The Ryerson girls, cellar-dwellers in the Ontario University Athletic League, average a year or two older than the Grade 12 teammates of the Wildcats squad. Siobhan Birch potted the lone Leaside goal unassisted on Rams netminder Ally Sarna in the second. Shots on goal told a true story with Leaside’s Danielle Tolland facing 37 and Ryerson’s Sarna merely 20. Sunday afternoon it’s back to regular season play with an afternoon match at Leaside Arena against the Brampton Canadettes.
