HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Exeter Times-Advocate, 1972-04-13, Page 6All roads from this area will lead to. Eastern Ontario
this week when two area hockey teams head out in pursuit
of Ontario hockey championships.
Most important for hockey fans in the immediate
area is the jaunt by the Exeter Hawks to Bancroft
Saturday morning.
The Hawks in the middle of a tremendous winning
streak are within two games of the Ontario Hockey
Association Junior "D" championship which eluded them
a year ago. The local juniors scored two decisive victories
over Bancroft here over the weekend and should have a
good chance in wrapping up the title Sunday afternoon*
Coach Bob White has his club in high gear and the
boys appear in the right frame of mind and "up for the
big games,." White has his club thinking hockey
continuously and they are giving him one hundred per-
cent at all times.
The Bancroft club could be a bit tougher on their
home ice with more vocal support but we feel the Hawks
are capable of bringing home the championship. Most of
the players were in last year's final against Haliburton and
gained a lot of experience that should come in mighty
handy this weekend.
The entire club has been turning in a good team
effort ever since the playoffs got underway, With
Sunday's 10-4 win over, the Hawks chalked up their 18th
win in 20 playoff starts and ran their current win streak to
six games.
The only losses in post-schedule play were a 4-2 loss
to the Clinton Mustangs in the second game of the league
semi-final series and an 8,2 defeat at the hands of the
Fergus Green Machine in the first game of the provincial
During the 20 playoff games to date, the Hawks
have scored 117 times while having a total of 67 goals
scored against them.
Goalie-John Hayter continues to hold a "hot glove"
over the opposition while the defensive corps has been
more than steady during the playoffs.
The three forward lines have been showing their
scoring abilities through most of the games. The line of
captain Larry Haugh, Steve Murley and Ron Lindenfield
came up with II goals in the two weekend games with
Bancroft.
Another imp octant aspect to the Hawks success to
date in the playoffs has been the terrific fan support they
receive at home and on the road. Fans are important to
the success of any club and the Hawks appear to have the
best in the country.
Since they were eliminated by the Hawks in an
earlier round, at least six members of the Simcoe IGA's
have followed the Exeter club in every game and expect to
be in Bancroft this weekend. One of the Simcoe players
told us the Exeter fans are the loudest they have come
across this year. Best of luck to the Hawks as they head to
Bancroft Saturday morning and the Ontario
championship,
At the same time, the Lucan-Ilderton Jets will be
heading for Napanee and the third and fourth games of
their OHA Intermediate "B" finals.
From all appearances, this series could quite easily
go the full seven games with a break or two deciding the
issue. The two weekend games at Huron Park were
decided in the latter stages of play.
The two teams are very evenly matched and
produce a rugged brand of hockey. The Jets won the coin
flip and will be back at the Huron Park arena, Friday,
April 21 for the fifth game and the seventh on April 29 if
it becomes necessary.
Two extremes in speed
Two sporting events over the weekend showed a
remarkable contrast in speed.
During the television coverage of the Masters golf
tournament early Saturday evening we were amazed to
see a putt by Charles Coody hang on the lip of the cup for
at least eight seconds and then drop.
After the ball stopped rolling Coady just looked at
it for several moments without making a move and then
the announcer said, "it might drop" and it did.
The fastest action over the weekend has to be the
overtime goal by Pit Martin of the Chicago Black Hawks.
Martin scored at the .12 second mark of sudden-death
overtime to give the Hawks a quick four game sweep over
the Pittsburgh Penguins.
Going strong
While the current edition of the Exeter Hawks
could end the 1971-72 hockey season this weekend, a
member of last year's club has still plenty of hockey
ahead of him this year,
The Markham juniors with Randy Preszcator as a
valuable member are currently leading Peterboro in the
OHA Junior '13' semi-final and are odds on favorites to
Meet either St. Catharines or St. Marys in the final.
If Markham and St. Marys do meet in the final, it
Will give local fans a good chance to see Preszcator in
action. Randy was the first draft choice of the Toronto
Marlboros and despite a layoff because of illness has
been a valuable addition to the Markham club.
Another incentive
While the Exeter Hawks seem to have plenty of
desire and the backing of their more than enthusiastic
fans, the boys were given another incentive this week to
bring home the championship,
George Rether of the Ausable Golf Course
announced he would provide a free year's membership
to the course to all players and management of the
Hawks for winning the provincial title.

In both games, the visitors
from Bancroft were able to stay
close to the Hawks for the early
portions, especially in the first
period.

second period was reached in the
Sunday game before the Exeter
club was able to get a two goal
margin for any length of time.

Ron Lindenfield, a good per-
formance by the defensive corps
and sensational goal tending by
