The defending U SPORTS Champion MacEwan Griffins (4-2-0) look to have found their stride and sit atop the Prairie Division standings after winning both of their games last weekend at home. The Griffins beat UNBC 3-0 and the Calgary Dinos 1-0.
 
Grace Mwasalla leads the Griffins offensively with four goals, while Erin Van Dolder sits second with three goals.
