The Moose Jaw Mavericks are going for provincial gold.

The Mavericks clinched their best-of-three Midget A female hockey semifinal series on Friday night with a 3-1 victory over the Regina Renegades in Regina, giving the local squad a two-games-to-none sweep.

As a result, the highly anticipated match-up between the de facto top two teams in the league will now take place, after the East Central Fillies (14-0-2) also recorded a sweep in their semifinal against the Prairie Storm Thunder.

The Renegades didn’t go quietly against the Mavericks (14-2-0), though, with the local squad needing a third-period surge to put away the contest.

Janelle Haas opened scoring for Regina 3:16 into the second period, but that edge would only last six minutes before Brooklyn Nimegeers scored for the Mavericks to tie the game 1-1.

Kaelyn Logan then scored the eventual game winner 4:14 into the third, and was followed by Ember Dusomme with a shorthanded marker with 1:46 remaining in the game.

Schay Camphaug was in goal for the win, Jordana Affie took the loss for Regina.

The Fillies, meanwhile, clinched their series on Thursday with a 4-1 win in Southey.

The best-of-three championship final series kicks off on Thursday, Mar. 12 at 7:15 p.m. at the Bert Hunt, with Game 2 Sunday, Mar. 15 in Leroy and Game 3, if needed, to be determined.
