The 2002 Ridge Meadows Roughnecks spring hockey team opened its 2013 tournament campaign with a silver medal from the Canlan Spring Showdown in Burnaby last weekend.
The team competed in the platinum final of the Atom Major AA division, improving on its 2012 third-place finish.
The team made up of both rep and house players from Maple Ridge went 2-1-0, including dominating 8-2 and 8-5 against teams from Vancouver Island and North Vancouver.
However, they were unable to overcome the visiting OK All Stars in the platinum final late on Sunday, losing 5-2.
Kyle Sackmann and Vincent Timperio led the offence ably supported with goals deep into the roster.
Defence was equally important to the success of the team, with the blue line being held by Graydan Carr, Edward Riddell, Liam Farrell, JohnPaul Kahlert and Ollie Para keeping down the shots on net as well as contributing a further five points between them.
