J-Cats Take 5th at Des Moines *Final Stats Added*

The Jungle Cats faced off against fellow St. Louis team SLAP for the seemingly millionth year in a row at Des Moines, this time for the 5th place trophy. The Cats were relentless from the beginning, taking a ridiculous 10-0 lead by halftime, highlighted by a goal by super-goalie Coach P...while playing goalie. The second-half wasn't quite as bloody, with the Cats only outscoring the SLAPers 7-4. To begin the 4th quarter, Penilla took the swim off wearing the red goalie cap, won, and promptly called a timeout, and handed over the goaltending duties to Mike Sizemore.

John Louis Heafner led the team with 5 goals, while Matt Stipanovich scored a Gordie Howe Hatrick (water polo style): a goal, an assist, and an ejection. Coach Milford finally got the monkey off his back and put one in the back of the cage; Jack Meara, though goal-less, did manage to injure the SLAP backup goalie. It was a fun game, and JCWP remains unbeaten against SLAP (on the varsity level).

Clayton next weekend. Then JO'S!
