Final Score:.................North York Talons........0.............St Catharines Wolves........6..
Former Talon goalie Hollis Fyfe had a shut out for London City in their last game. I wouldn't fault the Talon goalies for all their problems as it's often the follow ups on rebounds that cause the problems.
Attendance was only about 20. Talons never really had a fan base when the season began and not having won this year is not helping things.
