SYDNEY – Kinnon Williams had a three points night, which included two goals, to lead the Riverview Redmen to a 5-2 win over the Memorial Marauders in Cape Breton High School Hockey League action at the Cape Breton County Recreation Centre on Friday.

Andrew McCarron also found the back of the net twice for the Redmen (8-0-0-0) in their final game before the Christmas break. Blake Cox added a single marker to round out the scoring the Coxheath-based school.

Jacob Jessome and Dovi Walker replied with goals for the Marauders (3-6-2-0).

Michael MacMullen made 20 saves in the win for Riverview. Jonathan Dolomont turned aside 32 of 37 shots in the loss for Memorial.

The Redmen poured on the offense in the second period with a pair of goals by Williams and a single marker by Cox.

Riverview added to their lead with McCarron’s second of the game, making the score 5-1 in the third period. Walker added a goal later in the period for Memorial, but that’s as close as they would get to a comeback.
