Cullitons Edge Closer To Sutherland Cup Final

The Stratford Cullitons' offence came alive in a 7-3 win over London in Game 4 of the Sutherland Cup semi-final.

The Cullitons got goals from six different players and the team now has a 3-1 series lead.

Deven Kropf scored twice while Zander Pryor, Justin Graham, Dylan Lebold and Joe Leahy, on the power play, each had one. Zach Van Louwe also chipped in with an empty net goal.

London's special teams did cause a bit of trouble for the Cullitons as the Naitonals opened the scoring on the power play in the first period and then scored short handed in the second period to tie the game up at two at that point. Stratford then took control of the game out scoring London 5-1.

Game 5 is in London tonight at 7:30pm.

--- Caledonia beat Waterloo 5-2 to eliminate the Siskins from the Sutherland Cup round in four straight.
