Three CWOSSA Junior Clubs Set For All-Ontario Catholic Tournament

Three CWOSSA junior teams, including my current top 2 clubs at the AAAA level, will be heading to Hamilton after the exam break (February 5th/6th) for the 34th annual Kennedy Ontario Invitational, an all-Catholic Junior Boys tournament.

The St. Mary's Eagles (AAAA #1), St. John's Green Eagles (AAAA #2) and Resurrection Phoenix (AAAA #8) are all scheduled to compete.

This is a quite competitive tournament, however, CWOSSA clubs have had some success in recent years.  In 2009, the Resurrection Phoenix defeated Vaughan Brebeuf and Hamilton Cathedral before dropping a close game to Brampton D'Youville in the semifinals.

That same year, the St. Mary's Eagles got past Welland Notre Dame, Hamilton St. Thomas More and Oakville Holy Trinity to reach the final against D'Youville where they fell short of the championship.

Last year, St. Mary's advanced to the consolation semifinals.

The last CWOSSA champion was in 2001, when Brantford Assumption took the crown.  Kitchener Resurrection completed a sweep that year by taking the consolation title.

The school's historical performances are as follows:
St. John's - 27 years - 43-27 (.614)
St. Mary's - 3 years - 5-5 (.500)
Resurrection - 12 years - 15-16 (.483)

Other CWOSSA schools (not participating this year):
St. James (Guelph) - 1 year - 4-0 (1.000)
Assumption (Brantford) - 8 years - 15-8 (.681)
St. Jerome's (Kitchener) - 9 years - 8-12 (.400)*
St. Benedict (Cambridge) - 5 years - 4-7 (.363)
St. David (Waterloo) - 8 years - 5-13 (.277)
Bishop Macdonell - 3 years - 1-5 (.167)
Guelph Lourdes - 1 year - 0-2 (.000)
* - defunct
