Sam " Fancy " Fancey potted a pair of goals for the Monarchs, one late in the first to make it 2-1 after one and early in the second to make it 3-2 . Barrington poured it on in the second half of the game as MRHS was missing their top offensive threat Ryan Gates and their Captain Cory Johnson on the blueline, who were both nursing injuries. The 2nd period ended 7-2. CJ Martin scored unassisted on the PP early in the third for MRHS making it 7-3, which was as close as they got. Rookie Xavier Butt relieved Jesse Porteous late in the 3rd period in the Monarchs net. Barrington had 8 minor penalties while Middleton picked up only 3 in a relatively no-nonsense game.
