Friday night at the MRC, the Sailors faced the defending -champion Walkerton Hawks for the sec- ond time in three games, and things went much the same as game one, with the llawks winning by six. The Sailors skated well with the Hawks for over a period, and then took their foot off the gas at the wrong times, and paid for it. Tyler Million and Tom Bedour picked up goals in the loss. Saturday night, Hanover came to town with a line-up that may have looked deeper than the Hawks. The first period saw end to end action, with both goalies holding their teams in. The second and third, for the fourth game in: a mw seemed to unravel for the Sailors, and for the second night in a row, they found themselves on the wrong end of an 8-2 score. Same. Feagan caught fire Saturday night, picking up a goal and an assist, and Brandon Priestap showed his scoring touch with his first as a Sailor. The Sailors head back to Hanover for a rematch on Friday night, before hosting the Kincardine Bulldogs in their next home game, Saturday, September 24 at 8 p.rn.
