Brandon Wheat Kings News Release
Brandon, MB. - The wait is almost over western Manitoba.

The Wheat Kings, who defeated Medicine Hat in the opening round of post-season play, are returning to Brandon after playing all three home games against the Tigers at Credit Union Place in Dauphin as the Keystone Centre hosted the Royal Manitoba Winter Fair.
Brandon will travel to Lethbridge for games one and two of the best of seven series this weekend, before the series shifts to Westoba Place for games three and four on Tuesday and Wednesday, April 10th and 11th at 7pm.
