The final score of Game 1 was 16-1 for the Bantam Wranglers.

Highlights of Game 2 included hat tricks by Mason Pincott and Cameron Scott. Martin Stillas got two goals and two assists. Garrett Nash had three great assists.

The final score was 10-0 for 100 Mile.

Game 3 was early afternoon on Sunday at the Shulus Arena in Merritt.
