With a temperature difference of 50 Celsius from South to Northeast China, the young ice hockey players of Hong Kong, China acclimatized themselves admirably at the 14th National Winter Games.

After a 3-0 loss to Shaanxi on Saturday, Hong Kong missed out on a spot in the junior men's semifinals, but they still left Inner Mongolia autonomous region with their heads held high.

"We tried our best on the rink thousands of kilometers away from Hong Kong and felt satisfied with our overall performance," said 15-year-old Tim Cheng.
