Bears’ Anderson shines in shootout at Under-18 nationals

Nov 6, 2019 | 4:33 PM

Shellbrook’s Brooklyn Anderson had herself a day at the 2019 National Women’s Under-18 Championship.

Anderson, who’s also the captain of the Prince Albert Northern Bears, scored a goal and also scored the winner in the shootout as Team Saskatchewan beat Team Atlantic 3-2 on Wednesday in Winkler, Man.

That’s Saskatchewan’s second win in two games of the tournament, as they also beat Team Alberta 3-2 in regulation. They currently sit on top of Group A with five points (three for a regulation win, two for an overtime victory).

Also on Team Saskatchewan are fellow Prince Albert Northern Bears in Jasper Desmarais and Paris Oleksyn.

Team Saskatchewan will continue on with their tournament on Thursday and battle against Ontario Red (1-0).
