Coyotes Take One on the Chin in Princeton!

The Bill Ohlhausen Division leading Posse flexed its muscles on Friday night, defeating the visiting Osoyoos Coyotes 7-2.

The game really came down to three Osoyoos lulls and an anemic powerplay. 

Princeton scored three goals in a span of 5:32 in the opening period to grab an early 3-0 lead.

After the Coyotes drew to within one at 3-2, the Posse tallied two more times late in the second period, just 20-seconds apart, to take a 5-2 advantage into the third.

The final period saw Princeton count two more goals in only 2:17.

Levi Brewer, with his first of the season, along with Ryan Konecsni, scored for Osoyoos.

The Coyotes went 0 for 7 on the powerplay, which looked abysmal on every opportunity.

The often exaggerated shot totals were 38-23 in favour of the Posse.  Hunter Arntsen suffered the loss in net.  

The Osoyoos Coyotes were a respectable 3-3 during their stretch of six consecutive road games, remaining tied with Kelowna for third place in the division and just four points back of second place North Okanagan.

Finally, another home game as the Spokane Braves come to town Saturday night (Jan. 27th).  Face-off time is 7:00 o’clock at the Sun Bowl Arena, featuring Game Sponsor FortisBC.
