Medicine Hat News The Earls Phantoms got the last laugh, but there was no stopping Devo FC from taking this year’s Medicine Hat Senior Men’s Indoor Soccer League crown. Matt Wilson scored twice to lead Earls to an 8-7 win over Devo in their final game of the season on Sunday at the Family Leisure Centre. Brendan Lutz, Ashley Evans, Troy Geurrette, Cory Holton, Dallas Neufeld and Tyler Helms all scored for the Phantoms to help them close out the year in second place at 13-5-0 while handing Devo their first and only loss of the season. Johnny Keohane and Colten Pacheco both scored twice for Devo in the loss, which finished 16-1-1. The Ralston Rovers took third at 11-7-0 with a 9-8 win over the Wild on Sunday. Joe McNeill and Scott Creighton each netted hat tricks in the win. The Rattlers under-18 squad was fourth at 8-9-1 after a 5-4 win over the Phantoms Sunday.
