Crushers Can Capture WOAA 'A' Title Tonight

The long season may come to an end in WOAA Senior hockey. Shallow Lake can capture the 'A' division title with a win Friday over Ripley.

Carrying a 3-1 lead in the series, the Crushers host Ripley looking to end the series in 5 games.

Shallow Lake has lasted longer this season than their arena. With the Community Centre moved on to lacrosse, the Crushers have made the Harry Lumley Bayshore their home. Puck drop tonight is 8:30 p.m.

Ripley has put in a solid effort despite the 3 losses. The Wolves lost by only 2 goals in each game and their win came with a 6-2 thumping of the Crushers at home.

Should the Wolves extend the series, things shift to Ripley Saturday night at 7 p.m. Another win and Shallow Lake hosts game 7 in Owen Sound on Sunday at 2 p.m.
