Brussels Bulls John Steffler bent over backwards to keep Lucan Irish from scoring Sunday in Junior D action in Brussels. It was Lucan that was off balance though as the team ran into constant penalty trouble, lost their first game of the year 9-6 to the Bulls. Bulls upset Lucan Irish for split in weekend action It's horseshoes year round in Wingham The Brussels Jr. D. Bulls were O-for-Exeter Friday night losing to the hometown Hawks 4-0. Once again the Bulls inability to put the puck into the net was the major difference in the contest. Brussels started slowly as the Exeter skaters carried the play and applied constant pressure on the Bulls defense. Their persistence paid off at the 12:25 mark as they beat Jeff McGavin for the game’s first goal. Penalty trouble gave Exeter a two-man advantage for over three minutes late in the period but the Bulls penalty-killers held tight and Exeter left the ice with a 1-0 lead. The Exeter powerplay clicked in thesecondperiodscoring atthe 7:40 mark and minutes later the Hawks scored again for a 3-0 lead after 40 minutes. In this period Brussels enjoyed a lengthy two- man advantage but were unable to score. Early in the third the victory was sealed as Exeter added their fourth and final goal atthe 6:02 mark. The only question remaining was whe ther or not Todd Campbell would shut-out the Bulls. With five minutes left, the Bulls powerplay hit the ice with a two-man advantage but once again the Exeter penalty-killers rose to the occasion shutting down the Brus sels squad. Their final chance came in the dying minute of play as Brian Campbell found open ice from the center line in but a sprawling save preserved the shut-out. The last time the Brussels Bulls were shut out in regular season play was Jan. 1,1985 by theHowick Optimists. As in previous games the Juniors stuck to hockey taking only 18 minutes in penalties. Rumour has it that Coach Coulter took his players to the Brussels dam at Saturday’s practice to see if they could hit the Maitland River with their shots. It must have worked because Sunday afternoon the Bulls upset the Lucan Irish 9-6 handing them their first loss of the season. In this game the Bulls’ powerplay cashed in for seven goals. Lucan opened the scoring at the Ontario is the largest processed peach producer in the country. Each Canadian eats, on average, over two pounds of processed peaches a year. 5:32 mark but Brussels quickly replied at 8:06 as Brian Campbell scored from Marty Rutledge and Ron Strome. Lucan again took the lead at 11:21 but Brussels answer ed with three consecutive goals before the period ended for a 4-2 lead. Scoring for Brussels was Campbell from Mike Vincent and Strome followed by two Marty Rutledge tallies assisted twice by Campbell and once by Strome. Brussels added four more in the second period: Vincent from Rut ledge and Campbell at 16 seconds; Rutledge’s third of the game from Dwaine Nicholls and Bob McMil lan at 2:01; Strome from Rutledge at 10:20 and finally Ken Jacklin from Kevin Talsma at 11:52. Lucan ended the second period scoring summary with a goal at the 15:21 mark. Lucan coach David Reving- ton figured since his players were spectators and watched Brussels play hockey for two periods they might enjoy watching Murray Me Arter flood the ice and so the Irish skaters remained on their bench during the second intermis sion. Ron Strome opened the scoring 32 seconds into the final frame with 2 - 1988 Plymouth Sundance 4 doors 1988 Ford Tempo 4 door 1988 GMC S-15 pickup 1986 Chev 1/2 ton pickup 1986 GMC 3/4 ton pickup 1986 Chevette 4 door 1986 Dodge Van 1985Grand Marquis L.S. 4door Loaded with options. 1985 Chev 1/2-ton pickup 1983 Olds 98 Regency Brougham, 4 door, loaded with options 1983 Buick Park Avenue, 4door Loaded with options 1982 Aries 4 door HAMM’S CAR SALES Blyth 523-4342 assists to Campbell and Rutledge.
