KK's Lose in ND, Terriers Can Clinch 3rd With Win Friday

Kramer Barnstable stopped all 36 shots he faced and the Notre Dame Hounds did the Yorkton Terriers a big favour with a 5-0 win over the visiting Kindersley Klippers on Thursday.

Rylan Schwartz had 2-goals and 1-assist in the win.

Ryan Neiszner made 33 saves on 38 Notre Dame shots in the Klippers' net.

Kindersley now has 4 games left, and trail the Terriers by 6 points for third spot in the Sherwood.

The Terriers host Battleford tonight (FRI), while Kindersley's in Estevan, then in Weyburn tomorrow, before hosting the Hounds for a pair Monday and Tuesday.

A Yorkton win, OR a Kindersley loss in any of their final four games will lock up 3rd for the Terriers, which will most likely mean a date in the first round with the Melville Millionaires.

That's a solid article, Craig.

Who is tonight's game sponsor? I may just buy a program.

Cheers,

Clifford

I belive that "other" radio station in Yorkton (not GX or Fox, okay, The Rock) is a game sponsor tonight. And Brown's Leisure World has a big promotion going on too.
