After trailing 1-0 in the first, the Colts surged ahead with three goals in the second period, including power-play tallies from Roarke Gilmour and Camden McCuaig. Zack Speck-Meek scored the game-winner late in the second.
Camden McCuaig added his second goal of the game in the third, and Brayden Bowen netted an insurance goal to seal the win. Roarke Gilmour led with four points, including a goal and three assists. The Colts dominated with 44 shots on goal compared to Hawkesbury’s 33.
