The teams traded deuces in the first two ends, with PEI taking four points in the third end. A single in end five and a stolen triple in six gave them a 10-0 lead. The Yukon team scored a deuce in seven, but PEI took a single in the eighth and it was handshake time, with PEI improving to a 1-2 win-loss record.
