Andrew Jaques scored twice, including what proved to be the game-winning goal midway through the third period, to lead the Petrolia Flyers to a 4-3 win over North Middlesex.
Isaac Truman had a goal and an assist for the Flyers and Dylan Campbell had the other in a rare Friday night PJHL contest at Greenwood.
Lucas Rogers and Tobias Iantorno each had two assists. Tyler Strain made 18 saves for the win as the Flyers outshot the Stars, 39-21.
