Some early runs were the key as the 11U Moose Jaw Canucks won 9-3 over the Regina Buffaloes Tuesday night. 

They allowed two runs in the top of the first inning but didn't look back after putting four runs of their own on the board in the bottom of the first. A three-run second and a two-run fourth staked the Canucks out to a lead they wouldn't relinquish. 

Max Craig had three hits in the game for the Canucks.
