Crunch match in hockey's third tier

Big game for Vikings

Hockey - Vikings B can extend their lead at the top of mixed hockey's second tier this afternoon.

That's if they claim the spoils against second-placed Castletown Celts.

The southerners are currently two points behind the table-toppers but do have a game in hand.

Today's encounter at the NSC also pits the division's best attack against the league's tightest defence.

Meanwhile, there's a big match in PwC Mixed Division Two this afternoon as Vikings C take on Ramsey Ravens at the NSC.

Both sides are on ten points heading into crunch clash, with only goal difference giving the Douglas side the advantage.

Ravens have played a game less than their opponents, though, and are the only team in the league with a 100 per cent record.

Elsewhere, Valkyrs D face Bacchas Colts whilst Valkyrs C take on Ramsey Rookies.
