The Novice Tier II Estevan Bruins returned home from the Minot Mite Classic Tournament with some hardware, after having an impressive showing down south.

After battling through the round robin with only one loss to the Minot Black home team, the Novice Bruins thumped Moosomin in the semi-final, 11-1.

The semi-final win set the Bruins up for the rematch against Minot Black in the championship game. After exchanging goals throughout, the young Bruins team found themselves down 4-3 late in the third period, when they would find the back of the net with just 9 seconds remaining on the clock.

With the game knotted at 4-4 in overtime, the Bruins were able to break the deadlock and score to take the 'A' side championship in overtime.

The Novice Tier II Bruins will wrap up their season this coming weekend at their home tournament.
