Neepawa Banner/Neepawa Press

The Neepawa Farmers didn’t get the end result they were hoping for in their home opener, as the team was defeated on Sunday, Oct. 30, by the Cartwright Clippers 6-4. Tanner Fluker had a big night for the Clippers, with a goal and two assists. For Neepawa, it was Matt Lowry who lead the way with a pair of goals on the evening.

Carberry 8-3 Hartney

Just one game into the regular season and the Carberry Plainsmen are already burning up the score sheet. Cory Rae and Michael Reykdal both notched a pair of goals and an assist apiece to lead Carberry to the 8-3 victory. Both Blayne and Dustin Fisher also accumulated three points on the night (one goal - two assists), while Del Cowan scored two goals for Hartney in the losing effort.

Boissevain 8-5 MacGregor

The Tiger Hills Hockey League’s newest franchise was unable to come out on top in its first regular season game of the season, as the MacGregor Wild fell to Boissevain 8-5. Scoring for the Wild was by committee, as five different names filled the stat sheet for MacGregor. (Kelly Rintoul, Spencer Cleaver, Matt Boschman, Daylon Roy and Curran Smith.)

Minnedosa 11-4 Gladstone

The Minnedosa Bombers were looking to send a message to the rest of the league, with an impressive 11-4 triumph over Gladstone. Matt Saler had a night to remember, with four goals and two assists for the visiting Bombers.
