Playing on the road for the first time this season, the Kamloops Vibe earned five of possible six points as in Week Four and extended their lead atop the SCWHL standings. 

Kamloops has a league-best 7-1-1 record (win-loss-tied), nine points up on the 3- 1-0 Meadow Ridge Moose. 

The Vibe began their three-game weekend with a 3-3 tie against the defending B.C. champion North Shore Rebels at the Langley Sportsplex. 

The Rebels outshot Kamloops 44-25 and had a 3-1 lead late in the game before Sarah Botter and Jamie Mackenzie scored for the Vibe in the final seven minutes. 

Jaedon Cook netted the first Vibe goal, with Jess Sibley, Bianca Cuevas and Karmen Mooney scoring for the Rebels. 

Saturday night at the Richmond Ice Centre, the Vibe doubled the Richmond Devils 4-2. 

The two teams combined for 13 power plays, with Kamloops going two-for-six with the extra skater and the Devils scoring twice on seven chances. Jenna Fletcher, Katy Thorne, Gaylene Scott and Aish Sander scored for Kamloops, with Richmond getting goals from Kelsey Wagner and Nicole Lim. 

The Devils are in third place at 3-2-0. 

The Vibe concluded their road trip with the 2-1 victory over the Fraser Valley Jets Sunday afternoon at Planet Ice – Delta.

Jackie Lang netted the first goal of the game for the Jets, but Kathleen Cahoon of Kamloops tied the game before the second intermission and Jenna Ormondy tallied the winning goal in the first minute of the third period.
