Grady McNish struck first to give the Chiefs an early lead, showing the team’s potential to set the pace. Redden Richmond added a late goal in the third, highlighting the Chiefs’ resilience even as the game slipped away.
Though it was a tough night, the Chiefs have positives to build on. McNish and Richmond remain strong offensive contributors, while goalie Conner Rapley, tested heavily, showed grit in net. This young team is adjusting to the U18 level, and while setbacks are part of the process, there’s room to reset, focus on discipline, and bring their best effort forward. With perseverance, the Chiefs can turn this experience into momentum for the road ahead.
