The Panthers won the title with wins over Woodstock in the semifinal before a hard fought win over North Middlesex. Assistant coach Lynne Farquhar described the game as a "real barn burner" and "heart attack city" for the coaches. Despite giving up a short handed goal to Huron Park to open the scoring, the Panthers didn't let it get them down. Farquhar said the team came out flying, shifted into a higher gear and never looked back with a strong effort from every player. Emily Sararas tied it before the end of the first peri- od and the Panthers took the lead with a pair of goals in the second period. Katie Stewart put the Panthers ahead to stay at 9:41 before Kelsey O'Rourke gave the Panthers a two -goal cushion with three minutes left in the period. The Panthers took over in the third with six unan- swered goals including three from Stewart, with only Sararas's second of the game interrupting Stewart's natural hat trick putting South Huron up 7-1. The Panthers didn't let up and continued to find the Huron Park net, with Leanne Cronyn and Jessica Bickell adding two more as the Panthers cruised to a 9-1 win. Leading the attack for the Panthers was Sararas with a seven point game on two goals and five assists. Besides firing four goals Stewart also had an assist, with Julie Farquhar collecting five assists, Bickell get- ting three points and Cronyn two. Susie McCann, Kristen Reschke and O'Rourke also picked up assists and Lea Mudge got the win in net. After Listowel lost 2-1 to North Middlesex it set up the final between the Panthers and Parkhill. South Huron was first on the board with a goal by Bickell but Parkhill took control late in the period fir- ing three goals in the last six minutes to build a 3-1 lead. With Parkhill pressing in the second, Mudge made a game saving stop to keep it 3-1. The Panthers took advantage of the stop with a pair of goals 50 seconds apart by Stewart and Reschke. Parkhill struck back to retake the lead a minute later, but a power play goal by Stewart with just over a minute left in the period tied it again. An early goal in the third put Parkhill in the lead again, but the Panthers would not be stopped as Stewart completed her second hat trick to tie it at 5-5. The combination of Sararas and Stewart continued to click as Stewart put South Huron ahead for the first time at 12:33. Parkhill refused to quit tying it only 20 seconds later before Kelly Cronyn went in on a breakaway for the winning goal to make it a 7-6 final. Sararas had four assists in the win, with O'Rourke and Reschke each getting a pair. Bickell also had an assist and Mudge picked the win in net. Farquhar said the team showed a lot of heart not getting down when they got behind. "Parkhill was a great opponent and both teams were appreciative of the many fans who drove to Port Stanley to see the fmal."

The Panthers got the first goal but the strong and fast Stratford team kept fighting and eventu- ally tied the game in the third period. At the end of regulation time tied 1-1, the game went to a five minute five on five. Still tied after the intense five minutes, it went down to four on four for five minutes. Ending 1-1, the playoff format determined there would be a three person shootout, placing Sean Ellison, the Panther goalie under pressure.
