KNIGHTS BATTLE RIVER DRAGONS IN TUESDAY NIGHT ROAD MATCHUP

KNIGHTS FALL 9–4 TO UNDEFEATED RIVER DRAGONS IN WASAGA BEACH

WASAGA BEACH, ON – October 21, 2026 – The Knights of Meaford continued their busy October schedule Tuesday evening, travelling to Wasaga Beach for a challenging North Division matchup against the undefeated Wasaga River Dragons. Despite putting four goals on the board, the Knights were unable to contain Wasaga's offensive attack, falling 9–4 on the road.

The matchup saw Meaford face one of the Greater Metro Junior A Hockey League's hottest teams, with the River Dragons entering the contest riding a six-game winning streak. The Knights knew they would have their hands full against a talented Wasaga lineup, but continued to compete offensively against their divisional rivals.

Tuesday's contest marked Meaford's fourth game in just six days, following their home opener victory over Almaguin and a pair of weekend road games against Orangeville and the Bradford Rattlers. The demanding stretch has tested the Knights' depth and consistency as the club continues to find its rhythm early in the 2026–27 season.

The defeat drops Meaford to a 4–4 record through eight games, while Wasaga improves to 7–0, remaining undefeated in North Division action.

Knights Return Home Thursday

There will be little time for the Knights to dwell on Tuesday's result, as the team returns to the Castle on Thursday, October 22, to host the Tottenham Railers at the Meaford & St. Vincent Community Centre.

Puck drop is scheduled for 7:30 PM, with Meaford looking to return to the win column in front of its home crowd before heading north for a two-game road trip against the Témiscaming Titans and West Nipissing Lynx this weekend.
