The Bruins tied the contest 2-2 at 9:53 on a goal y Gabriel Filion.
An unassisted marker by Logan Cyca at 14:41 would restore a home team lead 3-2 headed to the second intermission.
At the fie-minute mark of the third period JD Hall scored to give the Terriers a two-goal cushion.
Barrow was back for his second on the game at 15:17 to cut the Yorkton lead in half, but that would be it for scoring as the Terriers skated to a 4-3 win.
Caleb Allen took the win in the Terrier net facing 25-shots, while Cam Hrdlicka took the loss facing 45 in guarding the twine for Estevan.
