Unable to find the back of the net until the final period, it was too little too late for the Home Hardware Midget 'AAA' Legionnaires.

On the road in Wilcox to battle the Notre Dame Hounds, the Legionnaires dropped their fourth straight game, losing 5-2 to the Hounds.

Notre Dame jumped out to a 2-0 lead after the opening frame, they then added another goal in the second for a 3-0 lead before extending the lead to four in the third.

Swift Current did come back with a late push.

Jevon Schwean put the Legionnaires on the board with 6:04 remaining in the contest, then just 23 seconds later Tyler Pryhitka trimmed the Hounds lead to 4-2.

That was as close as Swift Current would get, though, as the Hounds iced the game with an empty-net goal in the final minute.

Cody Levesque got the start in goal for the Legionnaires, turning aside 29 of 33 shots in the loss.

The loss extended Swift Current losing skid to four games, which they will look to snap on Thursday when they welcome the Hounds to the Credit Union iPlex.
