Division 1 – Week 5 Thanksgiving has wrapped up with all games being played according to schedule.
-Westcastle was virtually seconds away from earning a draw vs Vic West as the green & whites scored on the last play of the game to secure the big 3 points.
-Lakehill surprisingly blanked Bays as they are struggling out of the gates this year.
-Comox battle hard vs Gorge but the Division leaders remain unbeaten after a solid outing of their own.
-Nanaimo & Vancouver Island Wave get their 2nd draw each on the early season – will those come back to haunt them?
-Cowichan come down Island and take down a hungry Vantreights squad who are still looking for their 1st points of the season.
