The PeeWee AA Millers had quite the weekend in Brandon bringing home silver in the Tournament of Champions. 

Steinbach faced stiff competition with 8 good teams going for gold. In the round robin, Steinbach finished 2-1. They faced the Weyburn Young Fellow Wings in the first game and won with a thrilling comeback 2-1. They would fall to the host Brandon Wheat Kings before defeating Tisdale Ramblers 3-2.

The Millers then would tangle with the Estevan Bruins in the semi-finals 4-1 before falling just short in the gold medal game against the Wheat Kings 6-4.

Coming in, Steinbach was thought to be the underdog and went above and beyond with some third period comeback wins and timely goals. 

The Millers now set their sights with playoffs starting within the next week and Provincials being held in Portage La Prairie just over the horizon in March.
