In the second frame, a 12-0 Sheridan run built a 48-36 advantage for the Double-Blue, as they held Fanshawe to 17 second quarter points and took an 11-point lead (56-45) into the break.
A 14-1 Sheridan run early in the third period pushed the Sheridan lead to 24 and the margin would never get smaller than 18 the rest of the way.
Nick Campbell led all scorers with 24 points, while four other Bruins - AJ Thompson (18), Jemol Edwards (13), Terrell Carr (12), and John Avery (11) - hit double figures.
