"It was incredibly close," said coach Ray Lewis. "Any of the top four teams would represent us equally at OF - SAA." Vying for the top spot in Ontario's western region were GDCI, Med- way, Parkside and Huron -Perth rivals, South Huron. The Vikings lost the final to Med- way 1-0 in a tight match. Within the first five minutes, both teams had hit the goalposts at both ends, however, it was Medway who scored first and held on to secure the win. Lewis said there is a lot of parity in the top four teams, and any one of them could have advanced to OFSAA. Lewis said he was more stressful watching the girls' Huron -Perth match against South Huron Monday, Oct. 27. In regular season the Vikes played to a 2-1 win over the Panthers, and all they needed was a tie Monday to take the HP championship. A 0-0 tie meant the Vikings took gold. "I don't know how motivated our girls were:: Lewis said last week. Photo by Gerard Creces Vikings defence, Katie O'Brien puts pressure on the Medway offence in the WOSSAA final. "They went into the game knowing we only needed a tie. "They got what they needed to win Huron Perth" Medway advances to the OFSAA finals in Kitchener next weekend. As for the Vikings' season next year, Lewis said a good group of ath- letes will be returning. though there will be a few heavy -hitters gone from the lineup. "Our vets played incredible," he said. "Our graduating players, as is typical, when they're going out the door you get their best performance" He said veteran players Shelby Moore, Kelsey Doherty and Kelsey Johnston all deserve a nod, as well as goaltender Jaden Mitchell, who has already played for the team Ontario U14 and U16 teams. Lewis said the team is "a bit spoiled" after years of ruling Huron - Perth. However, with a number of rule changes to the sport, this year had challenges of its own. "I guess the major rule change is what's called the auto -pass rule," he said. "Basically, it would be similar to a free kick in soccer except you don't have to kick it anymore. If you decide you don't want to pass it you can just take the ball." The rule, he said, makes the game move along faster. While younger players just introduced to the sport learn the rule as part of the game, Lewis said the veteran players needed some adjustment time, as well as a change in strategy. "It speeds it up dramatically," he said. "That was probably one of our weak points. We didn't execute it to our advantage. That certainly showed in the final." All told, Lewis said their season was a good one, with one exception: "We lost one game all year and un- fortunately it was the final."

"We've had a chance to have success over the last half-dozen years," he said. "One of the big things is getting kids who have tal- ent to run.
