CORNWALL – The Cornwall Nationals ended a three game losing skid with a 5-4 overtime win this afternoon (Sunday) over the Port Huron Prowlers.

The afternoon game was also a Teddy Bear Toss, where the ice was littered with bears following Guyon’s first goal of the afternoon. The bears will be donated to Sparky’s Toy Drive.
The team also honoured local fan Alex Tourangeau, who dropped the puck in a ceremonial faceoff.
The Nationals play next on the road in Berlin against the River Drivers.
Cornwall is third in the standings (of the seven team FHL) with a record of 5-6-2-0 and 19 points. They are behind Danbury with 21 points and Danville with 33.
