The locals knew they were in tough right out of the starting blocks, playing to a 1-1 tie Friday morning with the Waterloo Wolves. A third-period tally from Taylor Buchowski, with assists from Tessa Favero and Emily MacIsaac, provided the equalizer for Sudbury.

By Game 2 later that afternoon, the Lady Wolves had found their scoring touch, blasting the Brantford Ice Cats 7-2, as Buchowski and Favero powered the attack with two-goal efforts.

Mackenzie Coggins, Lexie McNamara and Kayden Charbonneau rounded out the scoring for the winners, with Emma Dyer chipping in with a pair of helpers.

The northern girls kept rolling along Saturday morning, earning a berth in the semifinals with a 2-0 whitewash of the Stratford Aces. Elise Bélanger and Coggins found the back of the net for Sudbury, providing ample support for goaltender Dana Lewis, posting the shutout between the pipes.

Back against Waterloo and seeking a spot in the championship final, the Lady Wolves recorded a dramatic win, with McNamara netting the game-winning goal with only 50 seconds to play, as netminder Kamilya Myers stonewalled the southern Wolves in a 1-0 triumph.

In the end, the Peewee B Lady Wolves were simply not to be denied, getting a second-period marker from Lexie McNamara and a third-period tally courtesy of Emily MacIsaac in edging Lakeshore for gold.

The 2014-2015 edition of the Sudbury squad features Dana Lewis, Kamilya Myers, Elise Bélanger, Taylor Buchowski, Kayden Charbonneau, Mackenzie Coggins, Paige Crowder, Emma Dyer, Tessa Favero, Meredith Kusnierczyk, Emily MacIsaac, Lexie McNamara, Allie Miller, Rebecca Slywchuk, Abby Soehner, Kayla Thompson and Kate Watters.
