Kitchener, Ont. - The Kitchener Rangers returned to the win column Friday night defeating the Owen Sound Attack 3-2, extending their home win streak to seven games and home point streak to 13 games.

It was a hard-fought battle at The Aud with the Rangers not able to extend their lead beyond a goal in the game. Andrew Vermeulen opened the scoring midway through the opening period, before Caden Taylor evened the score. Cameron Reid scored with 13 seconds on the clock to send the Rangers into the first break with the lead.

Masen Wray was the lone goal scorer in the middle frame to send the teams into the second intermission tied. With just over five minutes remaining in the game, Christian Humphreys came flying down the right wing and ripped a shot short side under the bar to beat Trenton Bennett and hand the Rangers two points.
