YORKTON - The latest edition of the Highway #10 rivalry took place at the Westland Insurance Arena Saturday.

The hometown Terriers jumped ahead of the visiting Melville Millionaires on goal by Karsten Kruska at 12:36 of the first period. The goal was assisted on by Steven Norum.

The tandem reversed roles at the 15:34 with Norum scoring and Kruska assisting to give the Terriers a 2-0 lead in the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League contest,

In the second the Terriers made it 3-0 on a rather unusual goal. Colby Vranai would notch a short-handed goal on a penalty shot.

And that would be as the 3-0 score held through the remainder of the game.

Kael DePape was in net for the Terriers earning the shut-out stopping all 26-shots fired his way.

Jared Thompson started in goal for Melville but left with an apparent injury after facing 14 shots and allowing two goals, with Alex  Giroux playing the final 42:09 facing 22-shots.
