The Williams Lake Midget Boys Timberwolves managed to hold off Quesnel and walk away with a 4-3 victory during the weekend despite a very short bench due to injuries and illness.
Williams Lake started the game with just 12 skaters, and the lack of continuity showed early as the T-wolves started slowly.
Quesnel jumped out to an early 1-0 lead before Williams Lake found their legs and rattled off three straight goals before the end of the second.
Quesnel tied the game early in the third period but the Timberwolves scored on a powerplay midway through the last period and cruised the rest of the way to win 4-3.
William Paynton, Cody Swan, Corey Loring and Lane Wycotte scored for the Wolves with Hayden Lyons in net for the win.
Williams Lake is off to Prince George this weekend for its final two league games of the year.
The Timberwolves need to sweep both games to finish first in their league and gain home-ice advantage in the battle to see who goes to the provincial championships.
