They had Friday's game in hand all they needed was one more defensive play twice and failed to get the job done. Hunt was faced with fourth down on the four yard line with 28 seconds to go and a stop and they play next week and yet Hunt scored and tied the game.

They beat Northampton West in the opening round 28-0 at home while the Warriors lost at West way back in September. The Warriors beat SE Halifax by ten and Jones shut them out 15-0 Friday night. This will be a toughie for the Warriors.
