The Minor Midget Red team ended the 2008/2009 by winning the West Mall Lightning Select Easter tournament in dramatic fashion. It was a most exciting game, the arena was packed, everyone was excited with horns, drums, whistles and more. The score was 3-3 going into the final seconds of play in the third period when Dean Trinetti rifled a shot from the slot to the top corner of the net with 0.3 seconds left on the clock to win the championship 4-3. This tournament was a hitting tournament with Tier1 teams in it and Cooksville ended the tournament 5 and 0.
We had people asking where Cooksville was from and commenting on what a great team they are, even the officials mentioned it on a number of occasions.
