In a tight head to head battle, Ingersoll’s Rizzo, with assists by Parker Moon and Lednicky, scored early. The second goal of the night was scored by Chris Dimmers, assisted by Maxx Racicot.

The next night found the two teams facing off back in Ingersoll, with the stands filled with fans and family. Excellent defensive play and Tyler Brooke’s work in the crease were not enough for the win, however.
