Regina clinched second place with a default victory over the Winnipeg Rifles, who were unable to make it to the Queen City for the regular-season finale on the weekend. Treacherous weather conditions in Manitoba prevented the Rifles from being able to travel to Regina.

The Thunder and Huskies both finished the regular season with 6-2 records. However, Regina got the nod for second place because it won the teams’ only head-to-head matchup.

The Saskatoon Hilltops finished the regular season at 8-0 by defeating the Edmonton Wildcats 48-8. Those teams are to meet again next Sunday in Saskatoon in the other semi-final.
