In the tournament finals Barrie again had to face off against the Bolton Braves. Pitcher Tyler Hopper pitched a completed game and kept the team spirits high. Game MVP Glen Abernethy hit 2 doubles to driving in 5 RBI's and clinching the team victory. Barrie was victorious in a 12-2 mercy rule win.

Head coach Rob Roy was very proud of the teams "never give up attitude"!! Barrie has a regular season record of 6-1-1 in the YSBA Minor Midget Tier 2 division.
