The Melfort Mustangs are back in the top 10 in the Canadian Junior Hockey League’s (CJHL) Top 20 rankings.

The Mustangs are number 10 in this week’s rankings, the highest-ranked SJHL team.

Melfort is 8-2 in their last 10 games and have won three straight.

The Mustangs were 3-0 last week, with three one-goal victories. Melfort started with a 3-2 overtime win at home over the Estevan Bruins and followed that up with a 4-3 shootout win Friday night over the Nipawin Hawks. The Mustangs edged Notre Dame 2-1 on Saturday to close out their parent-billet weekend with a victory.

The Mustangs are now 14-4 on the season and will travel to Yorkton Tuesday night to face the Terriers. Melfort then has two games in Kindersley, Friday and Saturday.
