Leaside Junior Wildcats defeated the London Devilettes Saturday night at Leaside arena. Cats goalie Kate Stuart stopped 25 shots to earn the shutout. The home-team goals were scored in the first period. Veterans Quinn Johnston, Kristin Della Rovere and Myah Bowles teamed up to sink the first marker at 2.22 of the first on a power play. Then at 11.53 Erin Arsenault scored on a pretty breakaway against London netminder Erica Fryer. She faced 20 shots. Stuart’s shutout was well-deserved but hockey requires luck. She saw a zinger clang off the net in the second. The win places Leaside 11th in the 20 team Provincial Women’s Hockey League with 16 points for five wins, four losses and six ties. The top three teams in the PWHL are Toronto Aeros, Ottawa Lady Senators and Stoney Creek Sabres with 27, 25 and 23 points respectively. Sunday Leaside travels to Ajax to face the Durham West Lightning at Ajax Community Centre. Game time is 2.30.
