The last weekend of the season didn't exactly go according to plan for the Nepean Raiders.
With a goal of rounding into playoff form, and subsequently earning a fifth-place seeding in the CJHL, Nepean dropped back-to-back decisions last Friday and Saturday -- 6-0 to the Pembroke Lumber Kings and 9-6 to the Cornwall Colts.
While the Raiders rebounded with a 4-3 victory over the Kemptville 73's last Sunday, the two losses had already sealed their fate. They finished sixth in the league and will now take on the Colts in a difficult opening round match up.
Cornwall won four of the five games between the two teams this season.
The series begins Thursday night in Cornwall, with game 2 scheduled for the following night at the Nepean Sportsplex. Both contests start at 7:30 p.m.
