First Period Costly for Cougars
Sports
By JEFF GARD NORTHUMBERLAND TODAY

COBOURG -- Outscoring the St. Michael's Buzzers during the final two periods wasn't enough for the Cobourg Cougars to overcome a poor opening 20 minutes of play Monday night.

St. Mike's scored four unanswered first-period goals in a 5-3 win over the Cougars in Ontario Junior A Hockey League action at the Cobourg Memorial Arena. It was the second loss to the Buzzers in three nights and just the second time this season the Cougars have lost two straight games.
