On a down turn that featured only one win in their past 10 outings, the Blind River Beavers picked up a much-need victory Wednesday as they defeated the Soo Eagles 3-2 in a match-up at Pullar Stadium.
Not the case for the Espanola Express.
An impressive natural hat trick four and a half minutes apart by Nick Smith was part of a five-goal night for him as he helped send the Soo Thunderbirds to their seventh straight victory, a one-sided 12-1 triumph over the Express, at John Rhodes Community Centre yesterday.
