There will be a fifth and deciding game to decide the Great North Midget Hockey League championship. Before a standing room only crowd at John Rhodes Community Centre on Sunday afternoon, the Sudbury Lockerby Nickel Capitals upended the Soo North Stars 7-5 to even the best-of-five championship series at 2-2. The deciding game will be played at Sudbury's Carmichael Arena on Wednesday night. In Sunday's game four, the North Stars led 3-2 after one period but Sudbury took a 5-4 lead into the third and clinched matters with an empty-netter. Cory Sewell sparked the North Stars with two goals, while Chris Towell, Michael D'Agostini and Nick Tombari tallied once apiece. Towell also had an assist, while Adam Kauppi and Michael Sharp also had two-goal games with a pair of helpers apiece.
