As for shirts, organizer Joe Donahue has assigned team colors :

Gagnon: Black

Connolly: Blue

McCarthy: Green

Black Oak: White

McLaughlin: Red

Chalmers: Maroon

 

“In order to keep the games running on schedule, I ask that teams do not change goalies at halftime as I'd like to keep intermission to about 90 seconds,” Donahue said in a letter to coaches. “I ask all coaches to remind team members that this is a fun tournament and to leave any egos at home as we don't want to tarnish what we're trying to accomplish.”
