On Friday, the Tigers squared off against Natrona County for a thrilling two to one overtime victory. The Tigers first goal came from Kyle Howe quickly followed by an equalizer by the Mustangs. In the second overtime period Kevin Gold scored on a penalty kick with about thirty seconds to go. This victory advanced the Tigers to the Regional Championship, their first Regional Championship game since 2004.

Varsity - (8 - 5 - 3)

On Saturday, the Kelly Walsh Trojans were just a little too much for the Tigers in the Regional Championship game. The Trojans took an early lead and added another early second half goal to cement their win. The Tigers did fight very hard and were able to get a goal from Ron Halstead to put some pressure on Kelly Walsh. But in the end it was the Trojans winning two to one.
