\/>\nThe thirteenth edition of the Battle of Yonge Street saw all teams across the Aurora and Newmarket Minor Hockey landscape meet on the ice over the weekend, split between the Aurora Community Centre and Newmarket\u2019s Magna Centre.<br \/>\nWith a final score of 64 \u2013 52, and a record of 28-22-3, the Aurora Tigers came out on top of the longstanding rivalry.<br \/>\n\u201cThe AMHA will receive the trophy to display in their office and a year of bragging rights, while the NMHA must display the Tigers jersey in their office for one year,\u201d said Kevin Winsor, vice-president of rep for the NMHA.<br \/>\n\u201cIt came down to the final few games on Sunday with Aurora pulling through to beat Newmarket.\u201d<br \/>\nThis year\u2019s win also comes with some extra bragging rights: last year\u2019s edition, won by Newmarket, tied up the series between the clubs at six for just Newmarket\u2019s second win in six years.<br \/>\nCorby Saltzman, communications director for the AMHA, said the organization \u201ccan\u2019t wait\u201d to have their jersey hung in Newmarket for the year, adding a special thanks to all the \u201cplayers, teams, vendors, fans, and parents for making the weekend a special success.\u201d<br \/>\nThe weekend also included barbecues, food from local vendors, as well as a food drive to benefit local food banks.<\/p>\n<a
