(Bonnie Gropp photo) The Seaforth Stars began their semi-final series with Ennismore on Friday, March 2 in Seaforth. A well rested and high spirited Ennismore squad came out flying with the opening drop of the puck. Ennismore struck early and often putting the homeside down 3-0 before the first period ended. Seaforth battled back in the second finding the board on a powerplay marker by Darcey Cook, assisted by Kyle Courtney and Dave McClory. Cook took the pass from Courtney and after having the first shot blocked sent a high wrister over the goaltender’s shoulder to narrow the gap to two. Ennismore however would answer back with two of their own to increase their lead to 5-1. The Seaforth squad appeared to regroup for the third period but Ennismore scored once more to give them a 6-1 victory and a lead in the series. Play resumed the following night in Seaforth. Spurred on by an enthusiastic crowd the Stars would provide a much more entertaining game. In an effort to silence the fans Ennismore grabbed an early 1-0 lead before the end of the period. The Stars however struck back on the powerplay with Cook slamming home a rebound off a Courtney shot with McClory drawing the assist as well. Ryan Watterworth broke in alone beating the goaltender but ringing it off the goal post on a nice effort in an attempt to give the Stars the lead. Before the period ended Jeff Elliott would be injured on a collision with an Ennismore player on a race to the puck. Elliott would not return for the third period. Josh Nurse would take over the puck stopping duties for the remainder of the game. The Seaforth squad came out on fire in the third. Cook notched his second of the night on a tip off a Courtney wrister set up by McClory fooling the Ennismore back stopper. A determined Ennismore team responded with a goal of their own to tie the game 2-2 and send it to overtime. The overtime saw great end-to-end action with Seaforth out chancing their opponents. With only 24 seconds remaining on the clock McClory slammed home the winner on a great feed from Cook sending the fans to their feet, icing the victory and giving the Stars a tie in the series at one game apiece. A strong performance by Stars goaltending duo of Elliott and Nurse made the win possible. Coach Rick Elliott credits the boys’ hard work and well- disciplined play to securing the victory. The play now shifts to Ennismore for games on Friday and Saturday nights with the fifth game back in Seaforth on Sunday at 3 p.m. if necessary. In the daytime league at the Wingham Curling Club on Monday there were some rather one sided scores. Bruce Robertson defeated Les Shaw 14 - 4 and Ivan Dow was a 9 - 4 winner over Wendell Stamper. Three games ended in the same scores as Jim Coultes defeated Ron McMichael and Mac Inglis defeated Norm Fairles both by the score of 13-1. They say things come in threes. Stewart Leedham was a 13 - 1 winner over Nelson Frank. In a close game Don Henry was an 8 - 5 winner over Lloyd Wheeler and it took the extra end for Glenn McMichael to edge Irving Elliott 10 - 9. *** In Monday men’s action Stewart Leedham rocked to a 10 - 3 win over Les Shaw and Bruce Robertson recorded an 8 - 6 victory over Barry Simpson. *** In Tuesday ladies’six-end games Debbie Gammie doubled up on Ann Crawford with a 6 - 3 win. Marg Moffat’s new delivery continues to work as she recorded a 6 - 2 win over Mary Henry and Kayla Bishop continued her fine curling with a big 12 - 2 win over Cathy Donnelly. *** In Tuesday’s competitive leagues Earl Fitch was in fine form with an 11 - 6 victory over Rob Middleton. The DeVos brothers both came up with wins as Bill defeated Calvin Ruttan 7 - 6 and Aart DeVos was a 9 - 4 winner over Russ Taylor. It went down to the button as Shawn Cottrill recorded a 7 - 6 win over lefty Don Edgar. *** In the Wednesday mixed league John Dailleboust got back in the win column in a big way with a 10 - 5 win over Wayne Horton. Steve Burke edged Earl Fitch 7 - 6 and Aart DeVos recorded a 9 - 6 win over Dean Newson. In a battle of the girls Leanne Elston was the winner over Tammy Adams. *** The curling club was a beehive of activity on Wednesday as the WOSSA bonspiel was held with teams from London, St. Thomas, St. Marys, Woodstock and Wingham. There were four girls teams and four boys teams competing with the winners to advance to the All Ontario Championships to be held in Mississauga. In the boys division the Parkside rink from St. Thomas went undefeated with three wins. Huron Park of Woodstock was in second spot with two wins. In the girls division the outcome was so close, as the teams were evenly matched. When the last rock came to rest, lo and behold, three teams were tied with two wins and one loss. At first glance it looked like the Madill girls were the winners, but with a re-check of scores the result was the Medway girls from London taking top prize. They had won 13 ends and blanked one end. The Wingham girls were close with 12 ends won and one end blanked. It was a rather tough loss to take but they are certainly to be congratulated on the excellent effort put forth. Members of the Madill rink were Leanne Elston, Brittany Horton, Kayla Bishop and Julie Phillips. One of the parents from the Parkside teams from St. Thomas he stated that they had high hopes for their girls team and thought the boys’team would be lucky to win a game. The result was the boys were undefeated and the girls went winless. One never knows! *** On Feb. 24 the district Masonic Lodges held their annual curling bonspiel and banquet with teams on hand from Blyth, Brussels, Lucknow, Carlow, Kincardine, Listowel and Wingham. In curling action the Carlow rink anchored by Bruce Phillips and Ron Durnin took top spot with 47 3/4 points. There was a real battle for second spot with Lucknow’s 35 points a mere half point ahead of teams from Brussels and Blyth who ended up tied for third spot with 34 1/2 points. The Carlow rink claim they are once-a-year curlers but on the ice they looked like real pros coming up with some great take-outs and well placed draws. Bonspiel convenor Ron Alton reported a great day.
