Thistles Drop First Game of Play-offs

The Kenora Triple "a" midget Thistles are on the brink of elimination in
the Manitoba Midget Hockey League.

The Thistles were shutout 6-0 last night by the Eastman Selects in
Beausejour last night in game one of their best-of-three preliminary
round series.

The Kenora Midgets will try to stave off elimination Saturday night
at the Thistle Rink, when they host game two of the series.

Meanwhile, Beaver Brae's boys hockey team lost their final regular season
game.

The Broncos had a make up game last night in Dryden and droped a 6-4 decision to the Eagles.

The same two teams will meet up in the first round of the NorWOSSA play-offs next week.
