Airdrie can lay claim to another Hockey Championship team.

The Bantam Lightning Girls took home the Rocky Mountain Female Hockey League banner after a 3-1 win over the Prairie Thunder yesterday (March 26th).

Abby McDermid scored a goal and two assists and goalie Jenna Thomson stood her ground, allowing just the one goal.

For Head Coach Paul Richard, the game was a testament to his philosophy for the team from day one.

"I reminded them that they would need to continue to do the same thing that they worked on from our very first practice to our last game to be successful."
