THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1996 s ports Strong Crusader goalie alone against Milverton The Brussels Crusaders received excellent goaltending from Pat Cronin, but their lack of conditioning was evident as the Milverton 4-Wheel Drives skated to a 4-0 exhibition win Friday night. Ron Bowman scored once and set up two, with Kory Dietz, Kevin Quipp, and Perry Ohm adding singles. The Crusaders travel to Goderich Friday for a second exhibition game, then return home Saturday to meet the Shelburne Muskies in their 10th year anniversary opener. Last season the Crusaders finished in third place before defeating Arthur, Wiarton, and Ripley for the Senior A Champion- ship.

A teammate tries to ward off the attack by two Kitchener players. Kitchener put down the Bulls 7-0. Brussels Bulls suffer 3 losses The Brussels Bulls finished the Thanksgiving weekend with two losses to the Walkerton Blackhawks in league play and one loss to the Kitchener Dutchmen, the Bulls Jr. B affiliate, in an exhibition contest. On Friday night, the Bulls travelled to Walkerton for the first of two this weekend against the Blackhawks. As has been the story with all the Bulls games this year, they came out flying and scored the first goal on a sharp-angled blast from the corner by Tim Zaba, with Dan Sinclair assisting on the goal at the 10:01 mark of the first period. Walkerton tied it up on a powerplay. The game was tied into the first intermission. The second period was all Walkerton with them scoring four unanswered goals to take a 5-1 lead into the second period intermission. The Bulls opened the scoring in the third period on a goal by Ryan Wright, that assisted by Steve Henderson and Darin Alviano. It looked like they had some momentum going until an interference penalty which slowed the Bulls attack. Then another penalty later, Walkerton scored on The Kidney Foundation of Cana- da has the perfect solution for Hal- lowe'en trick or treaters, lunch snack desires and sugar attacks.

The fall fundraising campaign is swinging into high gear with Royal Banks, Canada Trusts, companies and individuals selling bags of goodies. The monies raised go towards a powerplay which essentially finished the Bulls hopes of a comeback. Seventeen seconds after the Blackhawks scored on the powerplay they scored again to put the final nail in the coffin. The game ended with Walkerton winning 7-2. On Saturday night the Bulls hosted the league leading Kitchener Dutchmen of the Mid-West Jr. B loop. The Dutchmen showed why they are league leaders with pinpoint passing and excellent playmAking. The few fans that showed up -to see this all-Ontario contender were treated to some talented hockey playing and some players that 'Could possibly end up playing in the NHL. The final score was 7-0 for Kitchener over the Bulls. After the game both teams were treated to delicious pizza courtesy of JR's Gas Bar & Takeout who was the game sponsor for the evening. On Thanksgiving Sunday, the Bulls travelled back to Walkerton for a 1 p.m. game against their foes from Friday night, seeking revenge all the way. This time Walkerton scored first on an 18:14 powerplay supporting kidney dialysis and transplant patient services, research, organ donor awareness programs and public education. goal and then later on a 6:21 shorthanded goal and proceeded to take a 2-0 lead to the first intermission. At 16:14 of the second period, Sinclair, assisted by Brian McNichol, made it a one-goal game. At 3:12 on a powerplay, Walkerton regained their two-goal lead, then two minutes later made it 4-1 and took a three-goal advantage into the third period. In the third at 18:21 Walkerton made it 5-1 before Alviano, assisted by Wright and Henderson made the score 5-2, then on a powerplay Sinclair got his second of the day on a feed from McNichol and Gary Staples which made the score 5-3. Walkerton ended the scoring on a short- handed goal which made the final score 6-3 in favour of the Blackhawks. The Bulls put in a good effort in this game. They outshot, outhustled and outworked the Blackhawks, but the puck wasn't bouncing their way in this one.
