This was Ukraina's first ever game outdoor together and it showed. Ukraina have a lot of work to do to achieve the goal of winning the league but with the right amount of committment and effort our goals are attainable. Scott scored the only goal, and Mark Shwed made his third consecutive start in goal.

Ukraina played against Croatia in a very hard thunderstorm and heavy rain. The boys worked very hard and played extremely well at times during the game. We went up 1-0 early on a goal by new signing Roman Dzioba. Croatia scored a fortunate goal just before half time to even things up. Andriy Popowych played well in his first game back from injury.

Then disaster as Hellenic tied it up again with about 4 minutes to play. Ukraina were pressing for the winning goal, and were awarded a penalty shot with no time left. Mike Herasimenko stepped up and scored the winning goal. Andriy Popowych play a great game in goal. Ukraina are in the semi-finals!

Ottawa United are a premier team in the city, the highest level. Ukraina were tired, and without key players due to injury and prior committments. The players gave their all in this game, and were losing 1-0 all game until the last seconds. It was a brilliant effort by the boys. Ukraina are in Division 4 in the city league, and played in this tournament against Division 2, 1, and premier teams and finished in the final 4. This is a great accomplishment and shows great character and passion from the boys.

This was not a true reflection of the Ukraina Team. The boys were absolutely dead tired after the great run in the tournament. We went down 1-0 early in the game then Scott again scored for Ukraina to tie the game 1-1. Then Kemptville, who seemed to be getting all the luck went up 2-1. Mike Herasimenko tied the game with a great free kick 2-2. Then as luck would have it, Kemptville scored with a few minutes left in the game to win. Andriy Popowych played well in goal.

Ukraina needed a win to make up for last weeks shortcomings and as all great teams do, came up big when needed. We came out with a will to win, and even after falling behind 1-0 in the second half, Ukraina worked hard as ever to come back and win the game 3-1. Mike Herasimenko continued his brilliant scoring streak from defence scoring the first goal. John Udell got his first goal of the season after a brilliant display in midfield, and Scott, Ukraina's all time leading goal scorer got the third goal. Mark Shwed started his first game in goal and was solid and earned the win.

Ukraina keeps it's wining streak alive by defeating the CPSC Rangers in a hard-fought game. Ukraina used their counter attack to perfection and Scott put the team up 2-0. Ukraina had some good scoring chance but could not put the ball into the back of the net. Kenny Porter who was filling in for for Mike Herasimenko, played a brillent game in the back. David Budd and Johnny Udell had a great game in the mid-field. The defensive core played well under constant attact from the opposition and Mark Shwed made some key saves to keep Ukraina ahead. Mark made a key stop right at the final whistle to prevent the tie.

Ukraina played their best game today, as we played against a solid team, but we were too much for them to handle. Andriy Szkwarek made his debut and had a solid game, and Scotty was his usual self scoring 3 goals while Alex Z chipped in with 1. Andriy P had a solid game in goal.

Mike Herasimenko scored a penalty to make it 2-0, and Danilo scored a great long range shot to round out the scoring. Andriy P recorded the shutout in goal.

Ukraina started once again very slowly and the game remained 0-0 for quite some time. Then the experience of our clutch player, Mike Herasimenko came through when he scored a great shot from 30 yards out. Then Scotty woke up, and managed to score the next 4 goals for Ukraina with some clinical finishing and great composure. Yuriy Derkach got his first goal for Ukraina late in the game on a great second effort. Eric made his debut in goal for Ukraina in the second half playing well. On a sour note, our keeper Andriy P has injured his knee and will most probably miss out on the rest of the season leaving Ukraina in a bit of a problem to close out the remaining games.

Ukraina played one of their best games today, although came up short in the end. We played a very solid team and matched them stride for stride and had most of the play at the end of the game only coming up a little short. It was a game where Roman Dzioba confidently stepped in the goal for Ukraina, as Andriy P is out injured, Andriy S was in Winnipeg, Mark Shwed is on vacation. Roman did not dissapoint playing a great game. Mike Herasimenko scored the opening goal for Ukraina, and Scott scored the second goal.

In a game where we had no goalie, Danilo stepped up and played his first ever game between the pipes! Ukraina played well and went up 2-0 in the first half on goals by Scott.

Danilo once again, played in goal and was brilliant. Made some key saves to keep us in the game.

Ukraina fought brave and hard to earn this point way out in Carleton Place. The game was tight and conditions a little cold, but both teams had chances. Eric scored the only goal of the game with a cross/shot that flew into the top corner in the first half. Mark Shwed was in goal and recorded the shutout in a great performance!

Ukraina played fantastice today winning very big against a weaker Arnprior team. Luke led the way scoring 3 goals while twin brother Scott scored 2. AZ chipped in with 1 as did Jon Udell and Mike Herasimenko. Max and Constantin both scored their first goals for Ukraina in this game. Mark Shwed and Roman each played a half in goal and were strong.

This was the best game Ukraina have ever played and the most exciting game as well. Playing against a top team in the league, this game was played with passion, desire and heart. Ukraina came out on top! The game was tense and rough all throughout the game until late in the second half, Alex Zaslavsky popped up to score the winning goal on a great first time shot low in the corner. Then to complete the win, Scott finished off a good team move by Ukraina. We had two young Ukrainians playing with us in this game, Morgan Kenny in goal getting the shutout, and Chris Arnone on the wing, and both played fantastic to help in the victory.

Ukraina showed exactly why we are the best team in the league today. Without our unlucky season of injuries to key positions such as goalie, there is no doubt Ukraina would have won every game they played. They showed this class in this game hammering one of the top teams 5-2. Ukraina have finished the season handily beating the top 2 teams in the league, and deserve promotion to division 3. Scotty showed why he is Ukraina's all time leading scorer by scoring 3 goals, while youngster Chris Arnone, called up for his second game from a younger team, scored 2 great goals. Morgan Kenny once again was called up to play in the net for Ukraina, and was brilliant. Luke showed what a fighter he is by winning a head to stop a scoring chance for Kemptville, and earning 13 stitches and a trip to the hospital. Great job lads, Bohdan and Marc couldn't be more pleased with the season.
