It all started with Bill Price collecting the scoring crown. Gary Montgomery added the goal tending trophy and as a team the Stars ended up in first spot and took the league trophy. And just to make it all complete the "greedy" Stars roared through four straight victories in the playoffs and thus collected the • final and 'most improtant award. The deciding victory Sunday night came on the strength of solid defensive play, buzz save Skating and tenacious fore check- ing. A general lethargic attitude by the Flyers did not help their cause in the least andas a result the Stars found some cracks in the wall. As it turned out the cracks were for the large part, gapping holes and the Stars drove through the Flyers' defence like a large Sherman tank. IceVan Broome, Gary "Cu6" Betties, Bill Boshart and Bill Price counted for,the Stars. The 4.0 score could have been 8 or 9 - 0 but Rick Fortune kept the score down. Erratic shooting by the Stars also. gave the Flyers a O break. The Flyers only had 15 shots on net and never really threatened. They had maybe 5 or 6 good chances but their own inability to score a big goal proved fatal. Beat _Played The game Sunday night was the fastest and best played of the year. The. Stars ,are blessed with good skaters and an excellent • defence. The Flyers meanwhile. have only 6 or 7 gdod skaters and a weak defence. Their only edge came in net and it was Fortune • who got them as far ,as they went. lh any hockey game desire plays a large part. It often decides victory 'or defeat and in the Stars' case pure desire pulled them through in convincing fashion. • The Flyers on the other hand' • found-it difficult to get along with meh„ather and that attitude iisnahifested 4tself on the ice. Reinny Van Loon suffered a neck injury halfway through the season and was forced out of the Stars lifierip. Van Loon provided the best support any team could ask for and as a• result his team responded with a supreme effort. Van Loon's encouragement and "never say die" attitude definite- ly helped the Stars. His desire contrasted sharply to the Flyers lethargy and as a result the Flyerssimld not put anything together. The Stars as a team were the best I have seen in a long time. They all played together and when one man erred there was always someone behind him. One Man It would be impossible to single out one man as the star of the team because they all contributed their best. I would have to say. however, one fellow played his best game ever. In any important hockey game everyone has to contribute. If the men with the lesser ability can come through 4 then the task of the better skater becomes easier. Jack Ungarian is a perfect -example of this. ' Jack is definitely not the best hockey player by any stretch of the imagination but he played Sunday .night with a passion and it resulted in his best game ever. Because he played well the Flyers had to be aware of everyone on the Stars team and, as we know, w 'the , Flydrs just didn't have the skaters to contain the whole Stars' team. The general game plan of the Stars was to let a forward cruise the zone between the centre and blue lines. This strategy worked to perfection as the Stars had at least 15 to 20 three atrone breaks. The Flyers were forced to fore check and as a result their defense was getting caught. ' Steadiest Bill Teal was the steadiest Flyer defenceman and he per- formed well all year long and into the playoffs. Many times Teall found himslef all alone and even doing 'most of the fore checking. a Quite feat for a defenceman. The Flyers still had the Blues • on their minds and before they realized they were in a final series - the Stars had already won the series. All in all. it caps off a rather up and down season for the Stars. At times during the regular season they were very inconsis- tent and couldn't .seem to put much of a winning streak togethq. They edged into first place, Ir however, and finally found their range in the playoffs. And there is nothing like being hot at playoff time. Good Season The Flyers on the other hand had a good season and lousy playoffs. Lacking talent the Flyers were fortunate to get as far as they did. Possibly 6 or 7 players carried them but you need a full.. team effort in playoff hockey. The final game also marked the first and last shut-out of the season. Gary Montgomery faced only 15 shots in recording the white-w ash but he was sharp on 5 or 6 dangerous chances by the Flyers. Many times during the season Montgomery was criti- cized despite winning the "Venzina" trophy. However, Gary got the last laugh by recording the rare shutout and he earned it, It's .the first playoff shutout ever and that makes it quite a feat - especially so in Industrial Hockey. So the Stars will collect a trophy for each man while the other 3 teams were blanked in the awards department. Rumour has it that there is_ to be a special award for the top playoff performer. The Stars could very well steal this one -too, but possibly one or two Flyers could be• in the running. • From this point, however, it looks like the Stars may com- pletely hoard all the awards. More statistics and a final roundup will appear in the Huron Expositor within the next few weeks. The awards banquet for the I.H.L. is Friday, May 2nd. Tickets can be purchased from, the executive and team captains. Let those involved know within the next couple of weeks whether you plan to attend so final arrangements can be made. Final congratulations go to the Stars on their tine performance and also' to the other three teams who did not win but contributed so much on those Sunday nights. So the long season has come to an end and rolls into the ball season. I hope everyone stays healthy and we shall see everyone again next November to start a new season. ''.

It is felt that Seaforth could have two competitive teams, one midget-juvenile combine and a bantam team if some coaches can be found. People interested in the sport but who lack the skills will have an opportunity to attend a coaching clinic set up by the Bluewater Minor Lacross Association. A referee'S cli nic will alSo be organized. Any interested people should contact the Recreation Office if they wish to either coach or manage or work in an administrative position. Without willing individuals lacrosse teams cannpt be formed in town. A meeting on Tuesday, April 7 at 7:30 has been set to discuss the possibilities of forming a baseball association. We need as many people as possible to help with baseball this year, both in an administrative capacity and for coaching. If' interestedylease attend this meeting at the lower library as baseball is going to be upon us sooner than we think.
