Broomball team heads to nationals
BY MANDY HADENKO
Oh...what is that glare? I think
that it's that silver medal on that
girl's shirt. Yes, that is right, the
Juvenile Girls' Jr. Broomball team
won a silver medal at the
Provincials in Palmerston. Accord-
ing to the girls this medal is a
silver-plated gold medal. Through-
out the many intense practices
every Wednesday night at 8 p.m.,
the dream of going to the nationals
was vague. Last year an invitation
was offered by sadly declined due
to lack of funds (also considering
that it was in Regina, Sask. Not
only has the team grown mentally
but most importantly physically.
The fact that they have grown to
know each other closely off the ice
but especially on the ice contributes
to the overwhelming success of this
team. The plays are sharp and
accurate and always leaves Carol
(the coach) smiling.
Although the first game that was
played at the Provincials was
against the dreaded Eastern team
the strong, harthworking and most
definitely determined Central West
team left the Eastern team shaking
in their shoes. Even though the
score was in favour of Eastern the
Central West team knew that they
would be seeing them in the gold
medal ame.
When the final game ended the
Central West girls had tears falling,
but only tears of sheer satisfaction
were shed knowing that not only
had they played their best but they
were going to fulfil their dream...of
going to the Nationals.
Within seconds of knowing that
the Nationals were feasible, the
planning to fundraise started. Now
that our fundraising ideas are
underway the countdown of the trip
is on.
Without the dedication and
patience from two hardworking
coaches the girls would not have
the interest to strive only for excel-
lence. Cheers :o out to Sandra
CENTS GO DOWN - The Seaforth Centenaires' played three close games in the playoffs
'That's all, folks!' for Cents
The Seaforth Centenaires'
powerplay backfired big time for
the . final time this season
Wednesday night at Lucan.
Wil Giles scored a shorthanded
goal on a breakaway with 1:15 left
in regulation time to give the Lucan
Irish 6 a 4-3 win and four -game
sweep of their Ontario Hockey
Association Junior "D"evelopment
League quarter -final.
Three of the four games in the
series were decided by one goal,
the only blowout was the only
game played in Seaforth, a 6-1
victory for the Irish Tuesday night.
The Centenaires officially
petitioned the OHA for 100 per
cent of the gate receipts prior to
Wednesday's fourth game at Lucan,
after association president Brent
Ladds earlier that day ordered
Seaforth to play there, rather than at
Brussels where Seaforth had booked
ice time for a second "home game"
in the series. The first two games in
the playoff were played at Lucan,
after liability concerns led the
Centenaires to postpone Friday's
scheduled start because of road
conditions and closures.
Scaforth jumped into a 3-0 lead
by the 11:02 mark of the first
period of Wednesday's clincher at
Lucan, under taunting banners on
the home side that read "Welcome
to the Brussels Arena", on goals by
Tim Barton, Ted Sills and Jason
Hayter on the powerplay.
That signalled the end for Lucan's
starting goaltendcr Knyvct Carson
who was yanked in favour of
veteran Steve Watson.
He was as much the difference in
the game as anything, although
Seaforth's Dave Nahrgang also
played terrific in net, at one point
robbing league MVP Greg Deprest
on a clear-cut breakaway.
The Irish got one back on the
powerplay, with Jason Dunseith in
the box for elbowing, as the first
period ended 3-1 for Seaforth.
The Irish got two more goals,
including an "own goal" on the
powerplay directed past Nahrghang
by a Seaforth defcnceman, in the
second period that ended 3-3.
Tac only penalty called in the
third by referee Eric Bryce was a
cross-checking to Lucan's Jeremy
Jemec at 17:37 of the third.
Centenaires' coach Maurice Guy
opted once again to sit a
defenceman in favour of a forward
on the point on the subsequent
powerplay which led to a
breakaway for the penalty killers.
This time the shorthanded goal
drove the final nail in Seaforth's
coffin as Giles got his second of the
game for the winners.
Shorthanded goals " plagued the
lackluster Seaforth powerplay all
season.
Tuesday night at Seaforth was a
disappointing performance all
round, as the home side only
managed 10 shots the first two
periods, trailed 2-0 after the first
then 5-1 after the second.
Josh Little was the only

Centenaire shooter to solve the
riddle of Watson, who was solid in
the Irish net throughout the series.
It was all sweet revenge for
Lucan, who were ousted in four -
straight under a barrage of brooms
by Seaforth in last year's semi-
finals, the only time in the past
eight years the Irish had not made it
to the Western Division final.
Goaltender Tim Swan of
Stratford, who played very well for
Seaforth the first two games of the
series, missed the season's finale,
on his way to a funeral in the
United States where his uncle was
shot and killed Tuesday.
Veteran Sills was Seaforth's
leading scorer in the series with two
,goals and three assists, his final
games as a junior as he played
overage this season and is ineligible
for next.

Local basketball
players all-stars
Brian Bachcrt and Jason Murray
represented Seaforth District High
School's senior Golden Bears at the
Huron Conference all-star boys
basketball game at Exeter Tuesday.
Brad Dillon and Sean Ludwig
represented the junior Bears.
Devereaux wins
hockey award for
sportsmanship
Seaforth native Boyd Devereaux
of the Stratford Cullitons was
named the player who best
exemplifies sportsmanship and
ability at the Midwestern Junior B
Hockey League's recent annual
awards banquet at Waterloo.
The 16 -year-old in his second
season with the Cullitons was
passed by American teammate
Mark Murphy on the final weekend
of the regular schedule, so ended
three points shy of winning the
league scoring title.
Boyd spent that final weekend
playing with Team Ontario at the
Canada Winter Games in Grande
Prairie, Alta.
Danny Wildfong, another player
who started his junior hockey career
in Seaforth, scored live assists in a
game for the now -eliminated St.
Marys Lincolns last week. He will
be playing hockey on scholarship at
Colgate University in the United
States next year.
Bowler Oliver Pryce
rolls high single
On a beautiful Friday, arch
3, thirty-two Seniors turned out
to bowl.
Oliver Pryce came through
with a brilliant high single, 285.
John Van Loon took high triple,
585.
Olave Little with a 196 Single
and Ann Wood with 494 triple
were high women. Bowling over
200 were John Aubin 216;
Sandy Doig 211; Ron Bennett
201 and Campbell Wcy 200.
The Maple Leafs team was the
only one to take seven points.
This was indeed a team effort as
John, Cord, Pauline, Catherine,
Marilyn and Marjorie all came
through with above average
scores. Ken McDonald and
Gladys Doig, who arc new
bowlers this year, are having
very respectable scores.
I have been suffering with a
bad cold the last two weeks so 1
must thank Catherine Staples for
bringing the sheets to me. Hope
to be back next week.
