This afternoon the Chicago Mission '96 Pee Wee Minor AAA hockey team earned the title of State Champions by beating CYA 2-1! Congratulations guys! It's been a good year for them. They finished up tied for 2nd place in the three state Midwest Elite Hockey League, they're ranked 9th in the nation and now they hold the state title. Unfortunately, this is the end of their season because they are in a "minor" year (1st year pee wees). Regional and national title championships are only held for "major" year pee wees & bantams.
The Chicago Mission Hockey Club has had an unprecedented 9 out of 10 teams advance to the championship round of the Blackhawk cup this year (the 10th team lost in a shootout). Half way through this weekend the Mission 96's, 95's, 94's, 93's and 2 out of the 3 girls teams have taken the state title. We're waiting to hear the score of the 92's game tonight and the 97's have 1 more game tomorrow. Way to go Mission!!
