From their regular season and tournament matchups over the 2022 - 2023 season this game could be a highly entertaining nail biter.
Both teams at the present time are said to be healthy and up to full potential.
Don’t be surprised to see this battle ending up going into extra periods.
Senior Boys Championship Showdown
Peacock Toilers VS Central Cyclones
Tip off time 8 pm
The three team senior boys league has seen its numbers reduced as smaller schools have opted for JV boys play this season.
Despite the Lumsden Devils opting into JV this season, albeit on a exhibition basis, the three remaining teams Vanier, Peacock and Central have put on a great show.

Although it may appear the Cyclones are a juggernaut and local basketball dynasty don’t count the Toilers out.
This is a matchup Peacock not only would like to win but it’s also one they’ve been practicing hard to win.
The best executed game plan and coaching calls from the bench could well decide the city champion.
The only precise prediction that can be made is it won't be boring.
