It's been a tough season so far for the North Battleford Beavers, but they managed to get a big win on the road in Wilkie.
The Beavers crushed the Wilkie Brewers 14-6 in North Saskatchewan River league action Tuesday night.
The win moves the Beavers to a 3-8 record on the season heading to their final two home games of the season, against Mervin Monday, July 6 and Unity July 10.
For Wilkie the contest was part of a stretch of three games in four nights, including a contest Monday night against the Meadow Lake Sox which they won 11-1. They were also scheduled to be home Thursday to the Macklin Lakers.
Other action from around the league this past week included games Sunday in Lloydminster, where the Meadow Lake Sox had an unusual road doubleheader against two different teams.
In their first game the Sox lost to league-leading Border City Blue Jays 2-0, but rebounded to beat Lloydminster Twins 6-5 in the second game.
Monday the Standard Hill Lakers beat the Midwest Expos 14-7 and the St. Walburg Reds beat Mervin Flyers 17-12.
