The 7 PM game saw the Makers' find similar success against Smithers Secondary, besting the Bulkley Valley Seniors 71 to 39.
That set the stage for the Saturday semi final, with the Kermodes prevailing over Smithers, the 68 to 45 victory moving Caledonia on to the Zones final and a 5 PM tip off with the Rainmakers.
