Dubé scored a pair of first-period goals, as the Gaiters took a 3-0 lead after the first 20 minutes. Both of the veteran attackman's markers came as a result of Brock penalies, as the Gaiters' special teams were the difference-makers early in the contest.

Brett Conway's (Cornwall, Ont.) extra-man goal early in the second put Bishop's up 4-0, but the Badgers did not go away quietly. Brock responded with four unanswered goals, including three in the last six minutes of the second, to go into halftime tied at 4-4.

In the second half, the teams traded a pair of goals each before Dubé's third goal of the day with 4:14 left in the third quarter gave the Gaiters the lead for good at 7-6. Bradley Haddon (Coquitlam, B.C.) put Bishop's up 8-6 at three-quarter time.

Crone's two goals, with 8:28 and 6:35 left in the game, settled matters and confirmed that the Baggataway Cup would leave Ontario for the first time.

The Gaiters' other goals came from Joe Laleune (2) (Halifax, N.S.), James Malloy (Uxbridge, Ont.) and Greg Harnett (Caledon, Ont.).

Bishop's took 6:30 in penalties, on four personal and five technical fouls. Brock was called for 12 minutes in penalties, as they took ten personal and two technical fouls, with most of their penalties coming in the last three minutes, after the game was well out of reach.

Veteran goalkeeper Keegan Durovick (Regina, Sask.) faced 16 shots and allowed six goals for the Gaiters. For Brock, Cameron Watts spent most of the time in goal, and faced 21 shots.

The win is the first league championship in any sport for Bishop's since 2004, when women's basketball won the Quebec University Basketball League. The Gaiters finish the season with a record of 13-1 (9-1 CUFLA).
