The last championship meeting between both teams resulted in a 5-1 victory for the Gulls, snapping a four-season string of championship seasons for the Bison, and beginning a two-year reign as the top team for Endicott.
 
Nichols will look to bring its fifth CCC Championship trophy back to Dudley with a win on Saturday.
