Four different Spitfires scored goals
lifting Windsor to a 4-1 win over the Kitchener Rangers in front of
4,640 at the WFCU Centre Thursday night.


Windsor (22-28-1-1) held a 2-1 lead
through 20 minutes on goals from Markus Soberg and Cristiano

don’t let up’ and I really felt like that got to Kitchener.”
