Bantam series should be decided, or maybe not
Area fans should know this
morning whether it’s Exeter
or Tilbury advancing to the
OMHA bantam “B” finals,
but then again, they may
not.
The best-of-five series was
extended to last night’s sixth
game at the rec centre, and
another tie between the two
teams could force a seventh
contest.
It’s the second series in a
row that the locals have had
to play an extra game, giv
ing the Exeter squad the
reputation of being a
“white-knuckle” crew.
After the teams split their
home games last week, Ex
eter rallied for a 2-2 tie in
Tilbury on Wednesday and
then came home Saturday to
post a 3-1 verdict.
Needing only a tie in
Tilbury, Sunday, the locals
appeared to have that ac
complished, but the roof fell
in on them in overtime as
Tilbury scored three times
to post a 6-3 win and force
the sixth game.
The winner of the series
will advance to a best-of-
seven final with Ernestown,
a town in the Kingston area.
That series will open this
weekend.
Came close
The local bantams came
close to wrapping up the
series on Sunday as they
came back from a two-goal
deficit to tie Tilbury 3-3 at
the end of regulation time.
However, the Exeter at
tack ran out of steam, and
hampered by two penalty
calls in the overtime, went
down to defeat.
The game was similar to
most of the other contests as
Exeter dominated play but
failed to get the puck past
Allan Barnier in the Tilbury
nets.
Exeter stormed to the at
tack in the first period, but
Tilbury potted the only tally
and they upped the lead to 2-
0 in the second.
The locals got one of those
back with just over five
minutes left in the middle
period when Tom Coates fed
a pass back to Scott Batten
and Jamie Chaffe was-in the
right spot to take Batten’s
shot off the boards and put it
into the net.
Dave Shaw then evened
the count when he deftly
worked his way through the
defence to get the puck past
Barnier.
Exeter took their first
lead after only 13 seconds of
play in the third when a
rebound off John Kernick’s
shot ended up on the stick of
Bill Glover and the latter
found an open comer on a
blistering shot from just in
side the blueline.
Tilbury came back to get
the equalizer two minutes
later when a deflection
found the mark behind Peter
Dearing.
Exeter out-shot Tilbury by
a 35-16 margin in regulation
time, but the hosts jumped
to the attack in the extra
session as they had their
backs to the wall.
They scored at the mid
way mark on another deflec
tion that gave Dearing no
chance and they potted their
second with 30 seconds left
as Exeter pulled their goalie
for an extra attacker. The
third goal came with four
seconds left as the Exeter
defence got caught up
attempting to get back in the
game.
Tilbury out-shot Exeter by
an 8-1 margin in the over
time.
the third period with a two-
man advantage.
Tilbury killed off one of
those penalties before Mike
Clark deflected a pass from
Dave Underwood behind the
netminder.
Both teams had scoring
chances in the balance of the
period and into the extra 10-
minute overtime, but
couldn’t blink the light.

Rally for win
In Exeter’s 3-1 win on
home ice, Saturday, Barnier
again had the local shooters
talking to themselves as
they failed to connect on the
barrage of shots they aimed
in his direction.
Tilbury scored at the 2:49
mark of the first period and
held that edge until the third
when John Kernick finally
evened the count with a
quick backhander at the 6:52
mark. His linemates Mike
Clark and Dave Underwood
picked up assists.
Tom Coates registered the
winner at the 8:06 mark
when his slapshot from the
point deflected off a Tilbury
defender.
Exeter netminder Peter
Dearing then came up with
some heroics of his own to
prevent Tilbury from com
ing back as they tried
desperately to get the
equalizer. He stopped two
point- blank shots to
preserve the win and Bill
Glover finally took the
pressure off when he lifted a
high shot from centre into
an open net for the clincher.
Rally for tie
In Wednesday night’s
game in Tilbury, the local
bantams came back from
deficits on two occasions to
post the 2-2 tie.
They started out in high
gear and threatened to blow their hosts right out of the
rink as they completely
dominated play in the first
period. However, their at
tack was again blunted by
some erratic shooting and
the fine netminding of Allan
Barnier.
Tilbury hit the sheet at the
10:34 mark of the middle
frame, only to have Mike
Murray get the equalizer
five minutes later when he
tipped in a pass from Jamie
Chaffe.
The home team took a 2-1
lead with just over two
minutes left in the middle
stanza, but Exeter got the
equalizer when they started
r>
Tilbury enjoyed a man ad
vantage midway through the
extra session, but the Ex
eter defenders and goalie
Peter Dearing kept them off
the sheet.
