A 6-5 overtime win for the CFR "AAA" Midget Bisons Thursday, March 2, in the city has them ahead of the Calgary Midget Flames, two games to none, in their Alberta Midget Hockey League South Division Semi-Final playoff series.

Down 5-3 heading into the third period, the Bisons got the tying goal with just 16 seconds left off the stick of Scott Tyson.

Brandon Machado then popped the winner with just over six minutes to go in the first overtime to send the Bisons home with a big lead in the best of five series.

The Bisons can wrap it up Sunday, March 5, back in Strathmore, starting at 2 o'clock at the Family Centre.
