The Vikings had no trouble with a weak Central Huron side, scoring three times in each half and limiting the Redmen to few scoring chances.

In the first half, Nicolas Glatfeld con- trolled a pass from Todd Graham and hit the twine with his shot to give the Vikings their first goal. Darren Doak scored when he moved quickly into the goal area to finish off an offensive thrust.
