The West division continues to show their dominance in the North Peace Hockey League semi-finals.

Both the Grande Prairie Athletics and the Dawson Creek Canucks won Tuesday night, and both have leads in their respective series.

The Athletics knocked off the Falher Pirates 6-2 in Game 3 and now lead the best of seven 2-1.

The Dawson Creek Canucks meanwhile edged the Manning Comets 3-2 at home to take a commanding 3-0 series lead.

In total, the West division clubs are 5-1 against the East this round.

The Athletics will look to try and take a commanding 3-1 series lead when they host Falher Thursday night at the Coca-Cola Centre.

The Canucks and Comets series will resume Friday with Game 4 in Manning.
