Seaforth had twice tied the game before Oshawa responded with two more and then Jessica Finlayson, earning the hat -trick, netted a pass from Lori McKay and Kim Devereaux to move Seaforth within one. Seaforth pulled goalie Sarah Agar but Oshawa put one in the empty net and the Sizzlers lost 6-4. The second game against West Ferris (North Bay) was more to the Sizzlers' liking. Jenny DelVecchio opened the scoring on a pass from. Jessica. Marsha Denys, assisted by Jeanette Crowley, put Seaforth ahead by two but West Ferris responded with a goal. Kim Devereaux re -captured the two -goal lead netting a Jessica Finlayson deflection and Marsha Denys increased it to three when checking by Katie Holland and Jenny, and Marsha's patience in front of the net paid off. West Ferris scored their last goal of the game just before Kim scored her second, assisted by Ally Devereaux. Jeanette finished off a play set up by Kim and Jessie by firing the ring into the net. The final score 6-2 for Seaforth. In game three Hamilton and Seaforth had matching records of 1 and 1. Hamilton scored first but Kim, from Jessie, tied the game ending the period. Seaforth took the lead when Jessica scored, unas- sisted. Hamilton tied the game and with two minutes remaining went ahead by one. Seaforth called goalie Sarah to the bench and put out the extra attacker but with 40 seconds on the clock Hamilton scored in the empty net. Seaforth took the free pass from centre ice, worked the ring into the. Hamilton end and Jenny scored with .09 seconds on the clock but Hamilton had a 4-3 victory. With their chances of a medal slipping away, the Sizzlers played Upper Ottawa, a team with only one loss. Upper Ottawa had a four - goal lead with 1:08 left on the clock when Becky deVries, assisted by Marsha and Melissa, scored for Seaforth. With super checking and some good saves by Sarah, Seaforth shut -out Upper Ottawa in the sec- ond half. Jenny DeVecchio netted a pass from Becky and Katie early in the second and then fired in another, assisted by Marsha, with only 34 seconds left to narrow Upper Ottawa's lead to one but time ran out and the Sizzlers had their third loss, 4-3 to Upper Ottawa. It was not a happy dressing room after this game; their dream of a provincial medal was gone. However, the tournament wasn't over yet. Game five against undefeated Thunder Bay was the kind of ringette game written up in books. Maybe it was the pep talk about "playing 500", the presence of so many fans or that all the pressure was gone; most likely it was that these are 11 terrific girls who ref- used to quit. These eleven put on a show few will forget. The referees' room buzzed all day about this game. The Sizzlers had control of the ring 95 percent of the time, but the Thunder Bay goalie was phenom- enal, stopping close to forty shots. After 11 minutes of scoreless play a fluke shot from behind the net caught the back of Sarah's leg and bounced into the net. However, the Sizzlers were NOT going to lose another one! Early in the second Jenny, assisted by Lori and Jessie, found a hole and tied the game. Another 13 minutes of scoreless play followed before the buzzer sounded and the game went into sudden 'victory' overtime. With two minutes remaining in the first over- time period, Melissa snagged the ring off the boards, passed to Lori who saw Kim in the open and a hard Kim Devereaux wrist shot bulged the back of the net. The girls went wild! It was strongly felt OW Thunder Bay was going to win this championship and they had just handed them their first and, poss- ibly, only defeat. In the final game against Markham, fourth place was on the line. The Sizzlers soon had a three goal lead. Kim netted two, the first from Jessie and the second from Jessie and Lori, and Becky deVries scored the third, assisted by Marsha and Jenny. Markham tallied one in the first but Jessie scored on a pass from Kim to regain the three -goal lead. Markham was, of course, their Regional champ and they weren't about to give up on fourth place either. They scored early in the s*ond but Seaforth responded when Jenny scored on passes from Becky and Marsha. Markham scored again, and again the Sizzlers reisponded with Kim earning a hat - trick on a pass from Jessie. Marsha deked the goalie on a pass from Melissa and with 7 minutes remain- ing, the Sizzlers held a 7-3 lead. But then Markham started to bear down and the fast pace of the morning game started to catch up to Seaforth. Markham scored three unanswered goals, the last with two minutes remaining and the coaches and fans feared it might get away from them. The Sizzlers, however, held on to earn a 7-6 victory and to achieve their mid -tournament goal of winning half their games.

Yom, THE HURON EXPOSITOR. April 20. I$SK-e) No cut rate: McKillop A special committee of the Seaforth and District Community Centres board will investigate the matter of Junior 'D' ice rental for the Seaforth Centenaire's 1994-95 season. A delegation from the Junior 'D' Hockey Executive presented their case for lowered ice rental fees compared with other area junior hockey clubs at the arena board's February meeting. Board member Jim Ryan, rep- resenting McKillop Township, stated that a number of players on the Jr. 'D' team are from outside of the Seaforth area (beyond the five member municipality's borders) and that he would find it hard to justify giving them a subsidized rate, according to the arena board's March minutes. A special committee consisting of Rob McLeod, Ron Murray, Ken Flannagan and Rudy Jansen was established to look into the matter further.
