2014 Division
Opening their weekend with a 6-2 loss to the Dallas Penguins was not how the Carolina Jr Hurricanes envisioned starting their weekend.

They tied the McKinney North Stars to finish as the 6th seed. In the quarterfinals they needed overtime to defeat Nest Hockey Academy to advance to a semifinal rematch with the North Stars, where they again needed extra time to win.

The Stars Elite took Omaha out of the game early and shut Omaha down to earn their championship hats. Following the Stars Elite’s 6-0 victory, Mark Djomo was named the 2009 Supertacks Division Howie’s Hockey MVP.
15O Division
With matching 3-0 shutout victories in the semifinals, the Carolina Premier and the Orange County HC would face each other in the championship. This east versus west coast match featured two teams unbeaten in regulation (4-0-1), and it was anyone’s guess who would suffer their first loss.

16U Division

14U Girls Jetspeed Division
Suffering a shutout in their opening game was not how the West Dundee Leafs imagined starting out their weekend in Dallas. The Leafs rallied back and won four consecutive games, including an overtime victory in the quarterfinals. Their opposition in the finals would be the team that blanked them in their opening game of the weekend, the Alaska All Stars. West Dundee had no response to Alaska in the finals, with the outcome echoing their earlier pool play match – a 4-0 victory for the All Stars.
