Okotoks Oilers increased their third-place lead over weekend

The Okotoks Oilers didn't let the news of the jump to the BCHL next season get in the way of winning over the weekend.

Friday night was a great night for fans of the Green Army as the hometown crowd cheered on the team to a 5-4 win over the Grande Prairie Storm.  Sam Huck netted a pair in the win. 

And then Saturday night the team downed the Spruce Grove Saints 5-2.

Over 1,000 fans attended both games with another home game on tap tomorrow night as they host the Canmore Eagles.
