Dudley Hewitt Cup Champ to be named soon; Other league champs quickly after

The Central Canadian Cup, known as the Dudley Hewitt Cup, began April 17th in Thunder Bay, Ontario, home of the T-Bay North Stars.

In the DHC were the Host Stars, SIJHL Champs Wisconsin Wilderness, OJHL winners Stouffville Spirit and NOJHL's Soo Thunderbirds.

The dust has settled after the round robin, and the Standings are as follows:

Spirit: 2-1
T'birds: 2-1
Wilderness: 1-2
Stars: 1-2

As it shakes out, the Spirit get the bye to the final, due to beating the Soo in the RR game. The Stars actually will play the semi final game tomorrow evening at 5:30 SK time vs the T'birds because Thunder Bay beat Wisconsin in OT to claim 3rd spot. The winner of the 2/3 game will play Stouffville in Saturday evenings final (5:30pm SK time)
