The Delhi Knights of Columbus Rockets road to the Ontario minor Hockey Association midget C final was about as smooth as it gets. And they knew once they got to that championship series, it would be a tough one.
They were correct about that.
The Delhi Rockets opened its Ontario Minor Hockey Association final over the weekend with the Mariposa Lightning taking a 3-1 lead in the best-of-six point series that has gone to overtime in every game.
On Friday, in Little Britain, regulation time and overtime solved nothing, as the two teams played to a 3-3 draw.
Sunday, in front of a great crowd in Delhi, nothing again was solved in regulation time. But this time, the Lightning struck with two minutes remaining in overtime to come away with a 4-3 victory.
Game 3 of the series is back in Delhi Wednesday at 8pm.
