It's not just Katy Perry who has to look out for the Sharks.
Teams from around the Saskatchewan Female Midget AAA Hockey League have found out this season that games against the Battlefords Sharks cannot be taken lightly.
The Swift Current Diamond Energy Wildcats found that out this past weekend, as the Sharks came away from their final weekend of regular-season action with a split of two evenly-contested games on the road.
It was the eighth win of what has been a breakthrough season for the Sharks, and also ended a nine-game losing streak in the process.
The game Saturday night initially saw the Wildcats take a 1-0 lead on Taylor Kirwan's power-play goal. But Keara Amson tied the game with just over five minutes remaining in the period unassisted.
The game remained 1-1 through the rest of regulation time. It took an overtime goal to settle things. Dayna Winzer of Swift Current went off for body checking at the 1:21 mark, and with six seconds on the clock, Cassidy Fehr got the game winner, with Jetta Derenoski assisting.
Chloe Marshall stopped 35 of 36 shots for the win in net for the Sharks. Jacey Book stopped 24 of 26 in the loss.
The game Sunday saw Swift Current fire on all cylinders, however, as they overwhelmed the Sharks with 37 shots on goal to the Sharks' 15.
It remained a close contest, however. Goals by Jaeda Hoppe in the second and Karlie Bell in the third proved the difference, however, and the Wildcats won 2-0.
The Sharks now have time to practice and get ready for playoff action as they wait for the other teams to finish their regular seasons in the SFMAAAHL.
