The Dauphin Clippers remain in the hunt for first place in the Westman High School Hockey League despite a setback over the weekend

Dauphin opened the weekend with a 6-3 win over the Glenboro/Carberry/Baldur Wildcats, Saturday in Dauphin.

Jake Kuzmiak scored twice and added an assist to lead the Clippers to the victory.

Also scoring for Dauphin were Liam Chartrand, Ethan Carnegie and William Miner, while Owen Chubka made 34 saves for the win.

Trey Dickson with two and Jaren Waldner scored for the Wildcats. Sawyer Wiebe made 32 saves in a losing cause.

On Sunday, Kash Henkelman scored twice and Owen Martyniuk stopped 24 shots to lead the Swan Valley Tigers to a 2-0 win over the Clippers in Swan River.

Chubka took the loss after stopping 24 shots.

With the Killarney/Wawanesa Raiders winning both of their games, last week, they now hold down sole possession of first place with a 24-2-0-1 record for 49 points, two ahead of the Clippers.

And with three wins last week, the Tigers have all of a sudden moved into the hunt for first, as they trail Dauphin by just a single point.

Each team has three games remaining in the regular season.

This week, the Clippers are on the road to face the Reston/Elkhorn/Melita/Pierson Renegades, Friday, and the Vincent Massey Vikings, Sunday in Brandon.
