The Petrolia Squires hosted Dundas for a Sunday tilt at the Greenwood Recreation Centre and took a 7 - 5 loss.  In the first period Dundas went up 2 - 0 and continue to add points on the scoreboard in the second period and took a 4 - 0 lead before the Squires lit up the scoreboard with a single by Steve Barraclough from Mike Perry and Jason Hawes.  Dundas went on to score an unassisted goal before the Squires came alive and scored 3 goals in a row to narrow the Dundas lead to 5 - 4.  Scoring for Petrolia was Jason Polera on a powerplay from Jason Hawes.  Polera scored the third goal with Jeremiah Goodacre and Ryan Leasa assisted and the final goal of the 2nd period was scored by Scott Hull from Craig Laframbroise.
 

In the third Dundas scored the first 2 goals to widen their lead to 7 - 4.  Midway into the game Breyden Belan scored for Petrolia assisted by Chris McPhail and Danny Larocque.  Both sides went back and forth and neither side scored any more goals in the game to give Dundas the win over the Squires with a final score of 7 - 5.

Ed Dupont was in net for the Squires making a total of 30 saves and Sean Hall was in net for the win for Dundas with a total of 42 saves.  Petrolia went 1 for 6 in powerplay opportunities, Dundas went 1 for 3.
 

Next up the Squires make a return visit to Dundas home on Friday Feb 1 and then the next day they travel to Windsor.  The Squires next home game is on Tuesday Feb 5 against Brantford for an 8:00 pm start.
