73's Could Take 2-0 Lead

The Essex 73's head to Mooretown tonight to take on the Flags for Game 2 of their Junior C hockey semi-final.

The 73's opened the series with a 2-1 win last night.

Tonight's game starts at 8pm at the Mooretown Sports Complex.

In Junior B action, the LaSalle Vipers are hosting the Strathroy Rockets at 7pm.

It's a big game for the Vipers -- they still have a chance to climb as high as second in the standings with just three games left in the regular season.
