The loss to Melfort in the playoff round knocked Rage out of the tournament putting them fourth in Western Canada. 

The Rage will have to settle for the fact that they have not lost to the Champion Unity Panthers in the four times they played each other.

All the players on the U19 team are underaged and could return for another crack at the title next season.
