A COOL COACH — Coach Ed Parkinson of the Lucan Irish is showing his cool composure as the last minute of Tuesday's game is played in which his club eliminated the Brussels Bulls: Tuesday night at the Lucan Com- munity ('entre, the Irish scored an impressive 6-2 win over the Brussels Bulls to win that semi-final series three games to two. Now it's into the final round for the all -Ontario championship and the Tavistock Braces are the only stumbl- ing block for another title.

In the flip of the coin to determine home team advantage for the final series, Lucan won the flip, but due to scheduling circumstances the first game was played in Tavistock. The second game went in Lucan last night, Tuesday and the third con- test is also st for Lucan. It is set for Saturday night at 8:15 p.m. with the fourth game in Tavistock Tuesday night.

Only 39 seconds later, Dave Wiffen put the Tavistock club even on the score board. Penalties played a big part in the Irish scoring splurge in the middle frame. Two of the four goals came on power plays and a third was shot with the Braves enjoying a one man advantage. The first power play score was not- ched by Jesse Crawford. This time the assist was provided by Wayne Urbshott shortly before he was injured. With less than seven minutes left and the teams playing even, Grant Larsen completed a three-way pass- ing combination with Paul Barnes and Brad Hodgins. Crawford with his third successful. shot of the night made it 4-1 potting in passes from Bob Thirlwall and Ron Goodhand at 17:30 with Eaton of Tavistock off for roughing. Only four seconds of his penalty had expired when Crawford scored. The shorthanded marker came with a minute to go in the middle stan- za as Brad Muir registered on a solo effort with team-mate Paul DePlan- cke sitting put a penalty. The Irish made the score 6-1 early in the third period on another man ad- vantage situation as Mark Bannon hit paydirt with Crawford assisting for his fourth point of the game. Shortly afterwards Tavistock scored a pair of quick goals by Kevin Yantzi and Charlie Lupton, but that's all the success they were able to have against Irish goalie Doug Haskett. Penalties were a dime a dozen as referee Mike D'Abrem called 29 penalties against the Irish and 25 to Tavistock. The shots on goal were won by Lucan by 31 to 30. Win series at home The Irish were able to win the semi- final series against Brussels on home ice as they chalked up a 6-2 victory. Western Junior "D" convener Wayne Smith of Belmont was on hand to present the overall league trophy to Lucan captain Bob Thirlwall and alternate captains Wayne Urbshott and Rob Hardy. In the first period the Irish were able to overcome two Brussels power play goals and score one of their own to lead 3-1 at the first rest session. Tim Fritz notched both goals for the Bulls. The first came at 10:50 with Paul DePlacke off and the second with only 17 seconds remaining and Wayne Urbshott sitting out an in- terference call. In between those two Brussels goals, the Lucan Irish counted three times. Wayne Urbshott started it off by converting a pass from Ron Goodhand and then Grant Larsen fired two quick successful shots. Get- ting assists were Paul Barnes, Dean Doerr, Goodhand and Urbshott. Urbshott's score came on a high 30 foot shot from the right side, Larsen notched his first as he was left alone in front of the net and the second came from a scramble around the net.
