- After a tough loss to Weyburn a week ago, things were looking bleak for Central’s championship hopes in the 5A South Rural League. Logic said they had little hope of competing with Yorkton after losing 60-34 to the Raiders in the semifinals a year ago, but instead the Cyclones shocked the province handing Yorkton their first shutout loss at home in 23 years. The 26-0 victory creates an interesting scenario down the stretch where the Cyclones can still capture the first seed in the playoffs if Yorkton is able to bounce back with a win over Weyburn. Either way, it’s a massive confidence boost for Central who know that if they meet Yorkton again in the playoffs, it’ll be the Raiders who have to hop on the highway next time around.

Quebec
- Saint-Joseph kept stride with Dalbe-Viau with another convincing 37-13 victory over Roger-Comtois to keep their undefeated record intact. If you look at the standings, it appears that the Aigles d’Or and Vert et Or are on a collision course for the Bol d’Or, but the competitive Juvenile DII playoffs are always full of landmines, so both teams will need to keep their head on a swivel.
- College Laval helped their playoff chances immensely this week with a key 16-15 victory over Deux-Montagnes to give themselves sole possession of second place in the West Conference. Outside of the top two front-runners, the field is wide open in Quebec, and it’s going to come down to who’s playing their best ball heading into the playoffs. Don’t forget Saint-Joseph only defeated the Maraudeurs 16-7 earlier in the season, so they are still very much alive in the championship discussion if they can continue their run of form.
