Hornets prepare for provincials after being ousted by Aeros in PWHL playoffs The Oakville Hornets couldn't overcome an earlytwo goal deficit as the Toronto Aeros won 3-2 to eliminate the Hornets from the Provincial Women's Hockey League playoffs. Toronto outshot the Hornets 14-1 in the opening period and jumped out to a 2-0 lead. Emma Maltais scored five minutes into the second to cut the lead to one, but Toronto restored its two-goal advantage three minutes later.

Brooke Jovanovich assisted on both Oakville goals and Daniela Paniccia made 32 saves.
