The Shelburne Wolves Bantam rep team continue to storm through the season winning their playoff series against the Highland Storm in three games.

The Bantams had a solid regular season not only finishing in first place in the Georgian Bay Group B division, they finished first over all.

With 35 points, the squad was ahead of the Penetang Flames of the Group A division by two points at the end of the regular season.

The Wolves finished with a 17-2-1 record for the regular season recording 93 goals scored while allowing on 40 against. That's an average of 4.6 goals scored in each game.

Entering the OMHA playdowns, there is a field of 14 teams listed in the Bantam CC pool.

The Wolves met up with the Highland Storm in the quarter-final.

Game one of the series got underway in Shelburne on January 26, with the Wolves taking the lead after winning 7 - 2.

Game two of the series was on Highland home ice. Again the Wolves came out on top with a 4 – 0 shut-out.

The series returned to Shelburne for game three on Saturday, February 9.

It was a close battle this time but the Shelburne team pulled off a 3 – 2 win to take the best of five series.

The Wolves will now have to wait out the quarter-final between Campbellford and Frontenac to see who they will play in the semi-final round.

Campbellford is currently leading that series after one game.
