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.”
