Mustangs will meet Terriers in first round of SJHL Playoffs
It took until the very last game of the SJHL regular season, but the Melfort Mustangs finally know their first round opponent.
After wrapping up their season with a 5-4 win over Flin Flon on Thursday, March 10, the Mustangs had to wait for the Battlefords North Stars to finish their season with three games left to play. Battlefords needed to lose just one game in regulation for Melfort to hold on to the third seed in the playoffs. After wins over Flin Flon and Kindersley, the Stars met the Notre Dame Hounds with the third place seed on the line. Ultimately, the Notre Dame Hounds defeated the Stars 4-3 helping the Mustangs earn the third seed, and in turn, a matchup with the sixth-seeded Yorkton Terriers.
Game 1: @ Melfort – March 18 – 7:30 p.m.
Game 2: @ Melfort – March 19 – 7:30 p.m.
