A week removed from a victory against rival Enigma, the Squirrels fell to a team that was a week removed from tying the worst team in the league. The Swingers took advantage of the Squirrels’ short bench, and skated away with a 5-2 win.
The Swingers jumped out to an early 2-0 lead, and the Squirrels found themselves killing penalties much of the first half. Finally, the Squirrels got a power play toward the end of the first half, and Kit Watson scored to cut the lead to 2-1.Only 42 seconds into the second half, Chris Long centered a pass to Jeff Ford, who tied the game, and the Squirrels appeared to be in control. Then the penalties added up again, leading to frustration and an ejection, and the Squirrels didn’t have enough energy. The Swingers scored three more times and held on for the win.
Matt Borlik, Long, Watson, Ford, Rob Myers, Ben Sumner, Tony Richelsen and goaltender Bob Sewell played for the Squirrels. The next game is Tuesday, at 8:30 p.m. against Silver Spring.
