Round robin play began for the Raptors early Saturday morning where they faced a strong Lethbridge team. They came out on the losing end of a 7-2 result.
They regrouped for their second game, and went up against Chestermere and pulled off a strong 4-1 win.
This put the Raptors in second place in their pool, and on to face the first place team on the other side of the draw. The Raptors handed a convincing drubbing to the Edmonton team, walking away with a 6-2 victory.
This win put them in the final, only to face Lethbridge a second time on the weekend. Again, Lethbridge was strong and went on to a 6-2 win, handing the Raptors a silver medal.
