Blyth Midgets
earn split
By Rusty Blades
The Blyth Midgets split two
league games recently as they
travelled to Milverton on Dec. 9
and frustrated the home team 5-3
before getting bombed at home 7-0
by Wingham on Dec. 17.
Against Milverton it was a three
period game with Blyth winning
period one and period three and
Milverton controlling the middle
frame. Henry Bos, who has
struggled through an injury plagued
season, opened the scoring with six
minutes remaining in the first. He
deftly tipped in Ryan Chamney's
shot for his first goal of the year.
Eleven seconds later, Brian
McNichol doubled the score after
some strong forechecking by
wingers Christopher Howson and
Tim Lyons.
Blyth coasted in the middle
stanza as Milverton took a 3-2 lead
with three unanswered tallies,
including two power play markers.
Blyth regained control in the
third as they staged a comeback for
the victory. Chamney, assisted by
Lyons and Ben Hakkers,
deadlocked the contest 3-3 one and
a half minutes into the period as he
slid on in on the short side. Tim
Cowan, whose goal scoring theory
revolves around quality not
quantity, rifled home the game
winner just over two minutes later.
"Teemu" took a pass from Lyons as
he cruised through the slot and
whistled one upstairs into the top
shelf. Although the puck picked up
a speeding ticket on the way in, the
goal stood and "Teemu" Cowan
had his first goal of the season.
Lyons, with his fourth assist of
the game, and Chamney assisted on
the insurance goal with eight
minutes remaining in the game
while enjoying a power play. They
fed the puck to McNichol who
drilled a long shot past a startled
opposition crease keeper and Blyth
fmished up with a 5-3 win.
It was a different story against
Wingham however as Wingham
scored on every second shot in
blanking the locals 7-0.
The players who showed up put
in a gritty performance but they
were no match for the visitors in
this game. Wingham took the air
out of the Blyth sails with four first
period goals and after that it was
just a matter of waiting for the final
buzzer.
Hopefully order will be restored
soon as the team heads into the
toughest part of their schedule.
Atoms win 7-4
over Bayfield
Belgrave Ato-ms proved to be
unwelcome guests when they visit-
ed Bayfield recently defeating the
home team by a score of 7-4.

The Brussels Crusaders
continued their quest for first place
sweeping weekend games in
WOAA Senior A play.
Blyth Novice tie
A low scoring, evenly-matched
hockey game was played Dec. 16,
when Blyth Novice hosted
Milverton.
Cole Stewart netted both Blyth
goals. On the first goal, Nicholas
Courtney and Neil Salverda were
awarded the assists. Stewart's
second goal came after a fine effort
of intercepting the puck at his own
blue line, weaving past the
opposition, and successfully ending
the breakaway by scoring on goalie
Jeremy Matheson.
Milverton came back with only
40 seconds remaining in the third
period. Robbie Archambault
blocked the initial shot, however,
momentum carried the puck up and
over him into the net to end the
game at 2-2 tie.
Blyth Tykes lose
to Elma Logan
On Dec. 16, the Blyth Tykes
travelled to Monkton, to play Elma
Logan.
Justin Peters put forth a great
effort and scored all four goals for
Blyth. Two goals were unassisted,
while two came from the speedster,
beginner Josh Albrechtas.
Monkton scored eight times,
despite some exceptional
goaltending by Taylor Hesselwood,
who faced an incredible number of
challenging shots throughout the
game.
A fine effort was made by both
teams, with Monkton playing a
well organized, speedy game which
kept a lot of the play away from
their goalie, Brennan Yundt,
although he made some key stops
to keep their team ahead.
Friday night Brussels exploded
for seven first period goals enroute
to an 8-4 win in Wiarton. J.C.
Hewitt and Brad Carter scored two
each with singles from Tim Fritz,
Mike Betties, Dean Nicholson and
Brian Campbell. Campbell's goal
came on a penalty shot attempt
with less than two minutes
remaining to end a Wiarton
comeback attempt
Sunday night in Brussels the
Crusaders surprised the Elora
Rocks with an 8-6 victory. Betties,
Hewitt and Carter scored two each
with Corey McKee and Steve Fritz
adding singles.
Trev Fortune took the win Friday
while Derek Cooper was in goal
Sunday.
The Crusaders are idle until
Sunday, Jan. 2 when the Arthur
Tigers are in town for a 3:00 start.
