Midget Thistles go Winless at Regionals


A successful season has ended in tough fashion to Kenora Triple "A" Midget Thistles.

After earning a team record 56 points in the regular season and earning the Branch Championship over the Thunder Bay Kings, the Thistles went 0-3 3 at the Telus Western Regionals.

The Thistles played host to the Kings, the Winnipeg Wild, and the Saskatoon Contacts all looking for a berth into the Telus Cup National Championship.

Kenora was never able to get it going and had to watch Thunder Bay and Saskatoon play for the final.

The Contacts took the championship game 2-0 and will represent the West Regional at the Telus Cup for the 2nd straight year in Sault Ste. Marie.
