The Mountaineers face the reality of a premature exit from the Ontario Junior B Lacrosse Playoffs, and the task of staying sharp over the coming weeks in preparation for hosting the Founders Cup.

Mimico was eliminated by the Newmarket Saints on Friday night, July the 2nd, by virtue of a 11-8 victory at Mimico Arena.  Newmarket wins the best of five series 3 games to 1.

Mimico fought back and showed lots of determination and grit, down 7-3 in the second, came back to tie it up at 7 and entered the third period notted at 8 a piece.   The double blue could not score in the third, and Newmarket chipped in three of their own to seal the victory and the series.

NEWMARKET 11 VS MIMICO 8

The Green Gaels lead the Mississauga Tomahawks 2 game to 1, while the Halton Hills Bulldogs lead the Orillia Kings 2 games to none.  The Kahnawake Hunters eliminated the Gloucester Griffins last night with a 13 to 10 victory.  If the series continue with the leaders winning, the Gaels will play Kahnawake, while the Saints will face the Dogs in the next round.

Check the Founders Cup website often, at the schedule will be loaded in the coming days, and all the updates leading up to the Canadian Junior B Lacrosse Championships.

The Mountaineers came up just a little bit short on Wednesday night in Newmarket.  The final score was a 7-6 Final for the home side Saints... Newmarket leads the best of 5, 2 games to 1, with Game 4 scheduled for Friday July 2nd, in Mimico, an 8pm start.

NEWMARKET 7 vs MIMICO 6

If Mimico wins at home, Game 5 will be played in Newmarket, at Ray Twinny Arena, Monday July 5th, 8pm start.

 

The double blue were able to put in a solid performance on Sunday evening, coming back from a first game defeat in Newmarket to even the best of five series at one game apiece, on the strength of a 11-3 home victory.

MIMICO 11, NEWMARKET 3

The Mountaineers now ensure themselves another home date.  Next game int he series in Wednesday night in Newmarket at 8pm.  The series returns to Mimico on Friday July 2nd, also at 8pm. Game 5, if necessary, will be played on Monday July 5th in Newmarket.

The road to the Ontario Championships for the Mimico Mountaineers will start this season in Newmarket.  The Saints completed their season with a 16 and 4 record, good for 4th overall in the conference.  Mimico finished 5th overall, thus the halos hold home floor advantage.  Here is the schedule for this series, which should prove to be a barn-burner!!

After the high of a solid effort Friday evening, the double blue put in an uninspired effort in the last regular season game of the 2010 season versus the Mississauga Tomahawks.  The Mountaineers spotted Missy a 4 to 1 led and to Mimico's credit, fought back to tie the game at 8 after three periods to force overtime.  Mississauga scored the lone goal in the OT frame to post the 2nd victory of the season versus the Blue boys.

MISSISSAUGA 9, MIMICO 8 - OT

Mimico finishes in 2nd place in the South East division, 5th in the Conference, with a record of 13 wins and 7 losses.  Things do not get any easier as the 2nd season begins this weekend. Mimico will definitely have to bring their A game from here on in, if this wish to make some noise in the Ontario playoffs.

 

The Double Blue posted a solid effort at home on Friday night by downing the Halton Hills Bulldogs 4 to 3.  It was a great end to end ballte, that was hard hitting and exciting to the very end.   Goaltender Eric Penny for the Mounties was the Player of the Game for the Blue side as he held his ground under mounting pressure from the Bulldogs.

MIMICO 4 VS HALTON HILLS 3

The final regular season home game in on Sunday June the 20th  vesus the Mississauga Tomahawks.  It is Blue Goose Fan Apprecation.  The Mountaineers will also honour those Juniors who will go overage at the end of the 2010 season.  Gametime is 7pm

Playoff Picture

It looks like the Mountaineers have a very tough first round opponent.  Mimico will finish 5th in the East Conference and will face the #4 seed, the Newmarket Saints. The best of 5 series will start in Newmarket.  Game schedule to be announced.

From all accounts, a solid effort on the floor at Ted Reeve Arena Tuesday night resulted in a 15 to 7 victory over the expansion Toronto Beaches.  The Mounties take the season series 3 games to 1.

MIMICO 15 AT TORONTO 7

The Double Blue close the regular season at home with 2 games.   On Friday night, the Halton Hills Bulldogs visit for the 3rd encounter this season.  Mimico needs to start building some momentum with the playoffs starting in just over a week, and they need to start competing with the top teams in the East.  Gametime at Mimico Arena is 8pm on Friday June 18th.

On Sunday June the 20th, at 7pm, it is Fan Appreciation, and the Father's Day Classic.  Take Dad out for a night of evening LAX.  Enjoy a peameal on a bun along with a cold beverage.  The Junior Mountaineers will also honour those players who will go overage at the end of the 2010 season.

Hope to see everyone out this weekend for some great games of lacrosse.

The Mountaineers were unable to gain any ground this weekend by splitting a pair of weekend games.  On Friday night the 11th, Mimico visited the Saints in Newmarket.  Once again, the boys in blue failed to put together three solid periods.  A lapse in the 2nd period cost them the 2 points as Newmarket went on to a 11-6 victory.

 Newmarket 11 vs Mimico 6

On Sunday evening, the Orillia Kings rolled into town and a solid effort from the double blue, despite penalty troubles resulted into a 10-6 victory.

MIMICO 10 vs ORILLIA 6

Mimico is entering the final week of their regular season, with three games.  On Tuesday night, the final meeting versus the Toronto Beaches,  Gametime on Tuesday the 14th is 8pm at Ted Reeve Arena.  On Friday night, the final regular season meeting versus the Halton Hills Bulldogs.  Mimico needs to pull out a win vesus some of the top teams in the East.  Friday night at home would be a good start.  On Sunday evening, 7pm the regular season closes with a date versus the Mississauga Tomahawks. Sunday night will be Fan Appreciation nite with some additional draws and prizes for our loyal fans.

 

The Mounties exacted a bit of revenge on Tuesday night in Mississauga as they downed their western neighbours by a score of 13-9.

MOUNTIES 13 @ MISSISSAUGA 9

On Friday night, the boys travel to Newmarket, to face the red hot Saints, fresh off defeating the Halton Hills Bulldogs, and a close one-goal game to the Green Gaels.  Gametime at Ray Twinny in Newmarket is also 8pm.  This is an important game with home floor implications.  Mimico must win their remaining 5 games to retain home floor over the Saints. To close out the week, Mimico is back at home, Sunday night the 13th, 7pm versus the Orillia Kings.

It was the Mimico Lacrosse Wall of Fame induction ceremonies on Saturday night where 3 long-time greats joined the list of builders and players who have made 120 years of Mimico Lacrosse very special.

Before the game the 2010 honourees were joined by Alumni and Wall Members for a wine and cheese reception .  Special thanks to Gerry and Charlie Henderson of Colio Wines for supplying the satisfying libation for the evening.

Entering in the Builders category in 2010 were Mr. Morley Kells, and Mr. Doug "Doc" Holyday.  In the players category, the great Don "Scotty" MacPhail.  Check out the Wall of Fame section for bios on these individuals.

On to the game, where the Mounties spotted the first goal to the visitors and tied things at one, and were very sluggish.   A time-out was called by the boys in blue, and a wake-up call issued by the coaching staff.   Mimico started to run and gun, and were supplied with some timely stops by newcomer to the Mounties, goaltender Joe Tallis.  Mimico  defeated the short handed Indians by a final score of 16-1.

MIMICO 16 VS AKWESASNE 1

Another newcomer to the Mounties, #18 Zach Hill won player of the game honours for the double blue, with 1 goal and 4 assists on the night.

Come celebrate with us the achievements of great volunteers, builders, and players who have shaped the 120 year history of Mimico Lacrosse.

On Saturday June the 5th, the 2010 Inductees will be announced prior to the start of the Mountaineer game vs the visiting Akwesasne Indians.

Mountaineer Alumni Members, and their significant other, along with all Wall of Fame Members are welcome to join us for a wine and cheese reception in the lounge prior to the game to welcome the newest members of the Wall of Fame. Festivities commence for the Alumni and Wall of Fame Members at 4:30pm Saturday June 5th, in the Mimico Arena Lounge.

The double blue Mounties put in a stong performance ensuring the Toronto Beaches did not take another win from their victory column with a 16 to 3 victory on Friday night at the MIM. 

 Brendan Muise led add scorers with an 8 point night(1 goal, 7 assists).  Brendan has moved into 2nd place all time in total points for the Mimico Mountaineers(137 goals, 217 assists, for 354 points) as well as, 2nd in total assists. Only all-time Mimico leader Andy Dudun(178 goals, 325 assists, 502 points) stands in Brendan's way.  Check the link for all the details on this victory for the Mountaineers.

MIMICO 16 vs TORONTO BEACHES 3

Mimico has no time to rest, as they visit Halton on Saturday night to face the Bulldogs. If the double blue hope to catch the 'Dwags, they must take at least the 3 remaining games  and hope to continue their winning ways.

The Junior Mountaineers also welcome 2 new additions to their lineup.  Cal Kitson was picked up from the Mississsauga Tomahawks and played in tonights game, scoring a goal in his debut.  Zach Hill, coming to Mimico from the Hamilton Bengals makes his entrance into the lineup tomorrow night in the 2nd of 4 regular season meetings versus the Bulldogs...Gametime in Georgetown is 7:30pm.

Mimico was able to make it's way out of the capital, securing a most important 4 points, by defeating the Nepean Knights on Sunday afternoon.  Nepean's tender Joe Tallis was peppered with over 60 shots to keep the Knights in contention.

Mimico 10 at Nepean 5

Next action for the double blue is this coming weekend.   Friday night, the Toronto Beaches are back in town for the third of four games scheduled for the regular season.  Mimico is looking to bounce back after a 9 to 7 setback at the hands of the Beach boys last week.

On Saturday evening, Mimico travels to face Halton Hills, for the 2nd of 4 meetings in the regular season. Gametime in Halton is 7:30pm.

The Mountaineers travelled along the busy 401 this long holiday weekend , stopping for a 8pm tilt versus the Gloucester Griffins.   Mimico held the lead throughout , playing 3 strong periods for a 10-2 victory over the Griffins.

 MIMICO 10 AT GLOUCESTER 2

Today, the Nepean Knights host the Mounties, gametime is 2pm 

 

 

 The double blue failed again to play a complete game, spotting the visiting and rival Halton Hills Bulldogs a 5 to 1 first period lead.

Mimico stepped up their game in the 2nd and 3rd periods, but could not make up their poor start.   Halton improved to 8-0, for first in the South-East Division .  Mimico falls to 5-4 with a set of weekend games coming up in the Nations Capital.  Saturday night versus the Gloucester Griffins at 8pm, and Sunday afternoon versus the Nepean Knights at 2pm.

 

Halton Hills 9 at Mimico 6

The key in determining if you are a good team is winning the games that you should and stealing some others you shouldn't along the way.  The Mountaineers are not putting up the results of a good team at the moment, giving the Toronto Beaches their first win of the season, falling to the rookie team by a score of 11 to 9 on Tuesday May 18th.

Toronto Beaches 11 vs MIMICO 9

The loss drops the season record of the M's to 5 wins and 3 losses and presents their first "must win" game of the season, the first of four games versus the Halton Hills Bulldogs, Thursday night May 20th.  Halton stands at a perfect 7-0 and another loss would put the boys in blue 8 points behind the Dogs with more that half the season still to play.

Gametime at the MIM is 8pm.....Should be a good one.....Check out the video on the Halton Hills website....Bulldog Rivalry.........Good Stuff!!

The Ms played a pair of games this past weekend, winning on the front end and losing on the back end of an away, and home encounter.

On Friday night, the boys on the bus travelled to Huntsville to face  the "golden" hawks.  The hawks are a much improved team over 2009 and should earn a spot in the post season.  Mimico controlled the game and came away with a 12 to 5 victory.

Player of the Game for Mimico was #22 Andrew Bennett.

MIMICO 12 AT HUNTSVILLE 5

On Saturday evening Mimico faced the always strong Green Gaels of Clarington. The first period was a back and forth affair, with Mimico striking on a pair of power-play markers, but behind by a 3-2 count after one.  The second saw the wheels fall off on the Mounties vehicle, as the Gaels struck on six occasions, shutting out the Blues in the 2nd, leading the home side 9-2.   Mimico was able to regain some composure and win the third period 3-1, but not enough as the Gaels took this one by a score of 10-5.

GREEN GAELS 10 AT MIMICO 5

Mimico has a busy week up coming. Tuesday on the road, versus the Beach, at Ted Reeve Arena. Thursday, the Halton Hills Bulldogs visit the MIM for the first of 4 encounters this season. Gametime is 8pm.

On the long weekend, the boys board the bus once again to travel to the Nation's Capital.  On Saturday night, the main course is the Gloucester Griffins...hopefully it agrees with the Ms.   On Sunday afternoon, the Nepean Knights play host at Barbara Ann Scott Arena, for a 2pm tilt.

 

 

The Mimico Mountaineers bounced back from an uninspired performance on Friday night by downing the visiting Kahnawake Hunters by a score of 11-5 .

Mimico matched the high intensity of the Hunters and were able to capitalize on the power play when called upon.

Next action for the Moutaineers will be on the road next Friday night, the 14th when they travel up the 400 to visit the Huntsville Hawks.

Then back home, Saturday night the 15th of May when they will host the Green Gaels. Gametime at Mimico Arena is 7pm

Mimico 11, Kahnawake 5

The Mimco Mountaineers were caught by an inspired Mississauga Tomahawks squad who built a 8-1 lead, and held on to win the game by a final score of 11-8.   The Tommies win their 2nd in a row and improve to 3 wins and 2 losses.  Mimico falls to 3 and 1.

Mimico does not have time to dwell on this one, as the Kahnawake Hunters visit the MIM on Saturday Night, May the 8th...Gametime is 7pm
