The Huskies are back-to-back North Battleford Men's Touch Football League champions.

The Huskies were first throughout the regular season with just one loss and they continued their winning ways Sunday taking the final 15-6 over the Gophers.

The Gophers drew first blood with a touchdown to start the scoring, but the Huskies responded with 15 unanswered points and some stellar defence.

The Huskies won their quarter-final game over the Silver Bullets by a forfeit and went on to win their semi final match over the Headhunters.

In the B-side championship, the Broncos defeated the Western Can Slammers 24-16. Both teams fell to the B-side after losing their quarter-finals games.
