High expectations met a stingy expansion defence on Sunday, and the result was not a winning one for the Thunder Bay Chill.
Kenny Sacramento, Amos Ganyea and Ivan Garcia each scored second-half goals, leading WSA Winnipeg to a 3-0 win, clinching victory in jus their second ever game in the Premier Development League.
The Chill, who fall to 1-1, were without midfielder and captain Nolan Intermoia, who was out with a knee injury.
Thunder Bay returns home for a pair of exhibitions against Winnipeg Sons of Italy next weekend, then take on Des Moines at Chapples Park on June 10 and 11, their 2011 home opener.
