Terriers 5 Hawks 2

The way the first period went, it looked like it'd be an old fashioned shootout... but the after the Terriers took a 3-2 first period lead, they tightened up defensively and held on for a 5-2 win over the Nipawin Hawks.

Nipawin took the first lead of the game, when Shawn McNulty beat Joel Danyluk 4 minutes in.

From there, the Terriers never trailed again, scoring 3 times in the first and twice in the third.
Rylan McDonnell, Derek Serdachny and Cody Zubko all had a goal and an assist... Travis Coghill had two helpers, while Brett Holloway notched his first SJHL goal, and Jordan Menke rounded out the scoring.

Yorkton's powerplay may have been the only downside, going 0-for-7... Nipawin was 0-for-2.

Joel Danyluk got the win, making 29 saves on 31 shots.

The Terriers continue their 3-game road trip in Melfort tonight (SAT).

------------------------

It was a goaltenders' duel in Melville, with Notre Dame's Todd Mathews coming out on top.

Mathews made 39 saves on 40 shots, while Melville's Travis Bosch stopped 37 of the 39 he faced as the Mils dropped a tight 2-1 decision to the Hounds.

Kale Dolinski scored the Mils' lone goal, while Thomas Williams and Travis Janke tallied in the win for Notre Dame.

The Mils host the Hounds yet again on Wednesday.
