Hawks beat Brussels 8-2 in their second meeting • of the season. Dave Bogart's prediction that the next meeting between the two teams PagelA would be different came true before the second period got under way Sun - PUSH COMES TO SHOVE — Lucan's Ian Craig takes a dive onto Thed- ford goalie Mike Sanders during a last minute scuffle in front of the Thedford goal. Behind the net, Mike Hirtzell waits his turn to give Sanders "what -for". In a last ditch effort to tie the game Wednesday night in Lucan, Irish pulled goalie Poul Woolford and then used the extra man to harass Thedford's net minder. The tactic didn't work. Lucan lost the game 4-3. Irish drop tough game to Thedford After recording the most successful stretch of their season last week, Lucan Irish allowed themselves to be edged out 4-3 by Thedford Wednesday night. Head coach Dave Revington was bitter about the loss. "You can't play a 20 minute hockey game," he said, indicating that his team had done just that. Thedford surprised Lucan with a goal just six seconds into the first period when Scott Lave beat goalie Paul Woolford with a shot out of the face-off. But Revington maintained that -the slow start had little to do with the loss. "They (Thedford) just got a break off the draw and the shot went in. It was a good shot -- you can't defend against that." Thedford added another goal to their lead after 2:27 of play when Steve Moffat scored from Rick CLEAN UP!

Assists went to Tim Hayter and Jamie Greig: The two teams carried the 2-1 score into the second period. Irish skated lazily onto the ice at the start of the second and within 1:13, Thedford had re -instated their two goal lead on a shot from Moffat. The score was unchanged until, with just two minutes remaining in the middle period, Greig made a single handed rush up the ice and pot- ted the prettiest goal of the game, unassisted. Lucan was unable to maintain that momentum in the early minutes of the third. As in the first and second period, Thedford again scored early when Tony Peters beat Woolford, making it 4-2. Lucan rebounded near the half -way mark of the third when Glen Marshall scored from Joe Febrey and Dean Doerr, making it a 4-3 game. With 1:31 left to play, Revington pulled Woolford and Irish went on the attack with a man advantage. Some Lucan shenanigans in front of the Thedford goal brought down inciden- tal minors for Craig and Thedford's Moffat, but Woolford remained on the bench and Irish maintained their man advantage. But they were unable to score. "Their goalie came up really big tonight," Revington said. "He played really well when he had to." Revington noted that many of the team's problems stem from the fact that there is now a five -man hole in Lucan's line-up. Veterans Paul Barnes and Brad Muir are unable to attend weekday games because of out-of-town commitments and Scott Denomy is out with a knee -cap injury. Junior Football team loses "Those are three big holes in the line-up," Revington said. "When we've got those guys out of the line- up, it's important that we get something out of them (the rest of the sports team). Paul Deplancke and Brian Schuyler were unable to finish Wednesday nights game due to injuries, adding to the problem. Revington noted that he's making no excuses. "We're down five guys, but that's no excuse. They just out -worked us."
