Friday Monkton visited the Brussels team and outshot Brussels Brussels Novices down Blyth 10-1 The Brussels Novices stormed into Blyth Nov. 1, and blew away their hosts by a score of 10-1. The Blyth squad worked hard, but only Josh Albrechtas, assisted by Kendall Whitfield, was able to sneak one by the visiting netmin- der. Joel Salverda gave a valiant effort between the pipes for Blyth, but just couldn't hold the Brussels attack. Scoring for the visitors were Cory Chapman, Matt White, Chris Corbett, Christopher Jutzi and Greg Bowers. Wayne McDougall were happy with the overall effort but added, "there is still lots of room for improvement." The Bulldogs travelled to Ripley, Nov. 11, and fought their way back from early 2-0 first period deficit to edge their hosts 3-2. Mike Courtney, assisted by Jeff Cowan and Darryl Bromley, got Blyth on the scoreboard late in the first. Chris Carter sent Ansley in on a solo rush early in the second, to tie the score 2-2. The Bulldogs slowly took control with solid team play. Anderson was the hero early in the third as he scored the game winner on a nifty wrap-around with assists from linemates Gerritts and Stephen Oldfield. The Bulldogs prevented Ripley from scoring until the final buzzer. 27 to 14. However, hard work and good goal keeping gave Brussels a 2-1 victory. Scoring for Brussels were Hall from McClure and Blake. Monkton tied the game. With 10:38 left in the game Campbell stole the puck behind the net and passed it out front to Kenny McCallum, who fired the puck past the Monkton goalie to give Brussels a 2-1 victory. On Sunday Brussels closed out their busy week as they travelled to Listowel. Once again Brussels was outshot 22-16. Listowel scored the only goal of the first and got their second goal half way through the second. Brussels got on the scoreboard as McCallum scored from Dilworth at the 6:22 mark. Listowel held off the Brussels attack time and time again. They were rewarded with a goal at the five-minute mark to take a 3-1 victory over the Brussels squad. The coaches said, "Our PeeWee team is starting to play well together. The players are working hard." Players of the month are Campbell and Wedon.
