Mustangs open Midget lacrosse league season with win

The Moose Jaw Mustangs had a bit of a slow start in their South Saskatchewan Lacrosse League Midget division opener, but like their Bantam counterparts two nights earlier, it didn’t really matter in the end.

That’s because after finding themselves tied 1-1 after the first period, the Mustangs scored four goals in the second and added three more in the third on their way to an 8-4 victory over the Regina Attack in Regina.

Caelan Fitzpatrick scored twice and added three assists for Moose Jaw while Atley Calvert picked up a pair of markers. Brydon Bell added a goal and two assists, with single markers going to Kael Nichols, Ethan Johnson and Jacob Gyman.

Mac Simpson was in goal for the win.

The Mustangs now have a couple of weeks off before their next SSLL game, as they travel to Weyburn to face the Thrashers on Wednesday, May 8.
