Clippers' season ends

There was no repeat comeback to be had as the Nepean Knights beat the Windsor Clippers 8-1 Thursday night to win the Jr. B Lacrosse championship in a sweep.

"We didn't have much in the tank." said head coach Jerry Kavanaugh. "No exuses but with McManus, Rosa and Good all out with injuries and other guys playing through it, the offence wasn't the same.


Four players scored two goals apiece for the Knights with Windsor lone goal coming off the stick of Seth Martineau early in the second.


The Clippers proved throughout the playoffs they could rise up to a challenge coming back from an 0-2 deficit against Hamilton and winning a deciding game in Elora to win the Western Conference title.

"I couldn't be more proud of these guys and what they did this season." said Kavanaugh. "Would've been easy to fold after 0-2 in Hamilton series or having to go to Elora and win game 5. They just kept answering the bell.'


The Clippers graduate four players from this year's lineup.

aboutus

Powerplay Windsor was born during a trip to Italy in the summer of 2018. Walking through a charming pedestrian underpass sparked a memory—being in the tunnel at the University of Michigan early in my career. That moment brought to mind the upcoming Windsor Lancers football camp and the many fall sports that would go uncovered due to cuts in legacy media sports coverage.

Recognizing this gap, and with the support of my loving wife and family, I launched Powerplay Sports as a passion project.

Founded locally and operated locally, we blend traditional sports reporting with modern digital storytelling.

From high school athletics and post secondary programs to junior hockey and grassroots clubs, we shine the spotlight on the people who make our sports community vibrant.

Our video channel brings you highlights, interviews and behind the scenes access. We are courtside, rinkside and on the field capturing moments that matter. See you soon.

"We celebrate all of the athletes within Windsor-Essex and their achievements reflected on Powerplay Sports."

"Another great resource for local sports produced by a person that has been invested in local sports for decades."
