After last night’s loss to Selkirk, SFU forward Mak Barden knew that his team needed a good effort on Sunday. “I think coming off the tough overtime loss last night I felt like we really had to focus on the task at hand and take it in full sixty and I thought we did that tonight.”

Barden had 2 assists Sunday afternoon to continue his offensive season with SFU. He is excited that his team is playing well together and continuing to gain confidence. “I think we’re firing on all cylinders right now, starting to get a little chemistry. All of our lines are really going right now and everyone’s playing well with each other at the right time of the year.”

Final shots were 43-22 in favour of SFU. SFU netminder Lyndon Stanwood stopped 19 of 21 to secure the win. With the win, SFU is tied with Selkirk in wins and points 16-6-0-2. Selkirk currently has the tie-breaker with more points in games against SFU.
