THE CITIZEN, THURSDAY, MARCH 20, 2008.Students play for United Way March break wrap-up The sun was shining, and while the snow hadn’t all melted just yet, the weather was right for some road hockey last Sunday afternoon in Brussels. While the Brussels, Morris and Grey Community Centre was packed with spectators for two provincial championship games, these young men took to the pavement to decide their own championship. Camden Hamilton took on goaltending duties while Austin Stevenson, front, and Jeremy Ross fought for the tennis ball.
