SEMI-FINAL OVERTIMES FOR JETS SENIORS

Both the senior men and senior women went to overtime in their MLWP league playoff semi-final matches today in Etobicoke.

The senior men trailed DDO 0-2 at the end of the 1st quarter but rebounded to tie by the half on two goals by Tuna Tali.  Tali notched the natural hat trick in the 3rd quarter but the Jets trailed 3-4 heading into the 4th.  Vlad Andreyev with 2 outside shots and Simon Chin Lee on the power play pulled the Jets into a 6-6 tie at the end of regulation. 

Captain Jamie Earle put the Jets in front 7-6 in the 1st overtime period and then the defence, backed by a stellar performance from goalie Andrew Chorniy, shut the door to send the Jets men into the gold medal game against CAMO (Montreal) on Sunday at 10:45am.

The senior women faced off against the Mavs and led 2-1 at the end of the 1st, 3-2 at the half, were tied 3-3 at the end of 3 and then 4-4 at the end of regulation time.  The teams did not score in the first overtime period but the Jets ran out of gas and fell 4-6.  Nicole Brown had three goals and Olga Mayorova one.  The Jets women will play for bronze at 12:15 tomorrow against Carleton.
