The Northwest Giants remained in first place in the tight race for first place in the B.C. major midget hockey league.
The Giants took a pair of weekend games from the Greater Vancouver Canadians following the restart of league play last weekend.
The Burnaby Winter Club-based team defeated the Canadians 7-3 at home on Saturday before doubling Greater Vancouver 4-2 at the Richmond Oval on Sunday.
Colton Kerfoot sparked the Giants with a five-point outing in the opening game, tallying his ninth and 10th goals of the season in a 3-0 first period.
Kerfoot also set up Jackson Cressey, hot off scoring the Giants' game-winning goal at the Mac's international AAA midget hockey tournamment in Calgary, for back-to-back markers early in the middle frame, including the eventual game-winner.
Mac's tournament all-star forward Eric Margo also scored for the Giants.
On the Sunday, defenceman Domenic Masellis scored his first goal of the season for the Giants to open the scoring. The 6-2, 204-pound blueliner also registered his fifth assist this year on Jarid Luksevicius' 20th goal of the campaign.
New Westminster's Brandon Del Grosso and Malik Kaila, with the game-winner, both tallied on setups from Todd Cole.
The wins improved the Giants' record to 22-2-2, just two points better than the Okanagan Rockets - back-to-back winners over the North Island Silvertips.
Former Burnaby Winter Club product Matthew Barzal continues to be the runaway leader in league scoring with 69 points, including a major midget best 49 assists.
Lukosevicius is sixth overall with 40 points in a closely bunched pack all vying for second spot.
Cressey, Jansen Harkins, Margo and Anthony Conti round out the Giants' presence in the top 15.
Bo Didur leads all goalies with an unbeaten 14-0-2 record.
The Giants take on the Fraser Valley Thunderbirds this week, including a Sunday morning matchup at the winter club beginning at 9:30 a.m.
