In a rare one-game weekend, the Valley West Hawks edged the Fraser Valley Bruins 3-2 to maintain their second place standing in the B.C. Hockey Major Midget League standings.
Playing in Abbotsford Saturday night, the Hawks improved their record (won-lost-tied) to 21-6-6, two points back of the Vancouver Giants who have played one less game.
Jordan Klimek tallied for Valley West in the second period but the Bruins knotted the score 1-1 after 40 minutes.
Mark McLellan put the Hawks in front again seven minutes into the third period, and just 16 seconds after Fraser Valley tied it again, Brendan Gulka notched the winner.
Fraser Valley and the Hawks were scheduled to play Sunday morning in Chilliwack, but that contest was rescheduled to Monday, Feb. 7 back in Abbotsford.
