Elligsen, the son of John and Bonnie, of the Walton area, began playing this year for the Cougars, part of the Golden Horseshoe Junior B Hockey League (GHL). "I just love the game and 1 guess I've been fairly successful at it, so I'll continue playing and doing the hest I can," said Elligsen. The 19 -year-old is attending Brock University in St. Catharines where he is enrolled in the four-year Physical Education program. "I chose to play for Welland because it is close to the school I wanted to attend and the Cougars are a really good, strong team," he said. Elligsen played minor hockey in Seaforth for nine years before going on to play for the Listowel Cyclones Jr. B team. He also participated in the Ontario Hockey Association Under -17 Camp. "We were concerned that he wouldn't be able to handle university and hockey at the same time but he's doing great and really enjoying it. We couldn't be happier," said Bonnie, adding that they are proud of their son's "Formerly The Queen's Hotel" n 4 Goderich St., E Seaforth A 527-2982 ENTERTAINMENT We are pleased to announce we're...

"He's far away though, so he can't come home that often with games about every weekend but we go there once in a while to see him play." The Cougars practise twice a week with two or more games during the week, Elligsen said, adding that he has played in 34 of the 42 games this years so far. "We're having a fairly good year, the team is in third place in our league and we're just getting ready now for the playoffs." There are seven teams in league including Fort Erie Meteors, Niagara Falls Canucks, Port Colborne Sailors, Stoney Creek Warriors, St. Catharines Falcons, Thorold Blackhawks and Welland. "All the other teams in the league are really close so there's not a lot of travelling. It's a really nice area here too," he said. Elligsen was also named one of the top players in the league to play for the GHL All Stars against the United States Empire Jr. B All Stars in early January. The GHL All Stars won the game, 14 - 2. Although Elligsen said he has one more year left with the Jr. B team, he hopes to play university hockey afterwards and then "take whatever comes next." He added that his goal is to complete university and then go on to become a Physical Education teacher. "I see myself playing university hockey, hopefully for Brock," he said. "I'll maybe play pro some day, if the chance ever comes up, but I'll just wait and see where I go." Scoreboard HOCKEY House League Juniors Jan. 31 Kings 9 vs Oilers 1 Kings goals: Ken Van Bakel 3.
