YORKTON - To put it simply, it was a tough night for the Yorkton Terriers.

The Terriers were in North Battlefords for SJHL action Thursday and it took Hunter Burgeson of the host Stars only 4:26 to put the home team up 1-0 on the powerplay.

Cade Kennedy responded at 12:52 to tie things.

But, that would be as close as Yorkton was all night.

Andrew Casellato restored a Stars one-goal lead less than a minute later, notching a marker at 13:29.

A Ben Portner goal with 10 ticks left on the period clock made it 3-1 Battlefords lead after 20-minutes.

Riley Girod started things in the middle stanza with a Stars goal at 7:39.

Gavin Granger extended the lead to 5-1 with a goal at 12:00.

Aiden Knutson gave the Terriers a little hope popping a powerplay goal at 17:21 leaving the game 5-2 through 40-minutes of play.

The third period was all Stars.

Seventeen seconds in Bradley Blake found the twine.

At 3:49 it was Kian Bell scoring.

Portner scored his second of the game at 9:59, a powerplay effort.

Girod finally ended scoring with his second of the night at 15:11 to wrap up a 9-2 Stars win.

Justin Maric was the winning goaltender facing 31-shots.

The Terriers split time with Blake Sittler allowing four goals on 19 shots in 27:39, and Adam Kelly allowing five goals in 25 shots the rest of the way.

The Terriers stay in Battlefords for action again tonight (Friday), then head to Kindersley for action Saturday.
