MOHAWK SAVE -- Exeter Mohawk goalie Rick Pikul makes a sliding save during Sunday night's game against Elora Rocks. At the left is Brian Mercer (9). Circling the net is John Kernick (12). Mohawks won the game 7-3, extending their unbeaten streak to 10 games in the Central Senior B league. Mohawks beginning to look unbeatable As the Christmas milestone in the Central Senior B league draws closer, it's beginning to look as if Exeter Mohawks have no equal in the arca. Mohawks are now undefeated in 11 regular season games after hand- ing Elora Rocks a 7-3 loss Sunday night and downing Tavistock 6-2 The pattern remained the same: Elora stayed close throughout the first and second period and headed into the third trailing 4-3 but the lo- cal steamroller kicked into gear. Exctcr head coach Jim Guenther compared Sunday's match to Mo- hawks recent home -and -home series with Hillsburg in which their oppo- nents were badly battered. "We knew we beat them badly (in their last match)," Guenther said "We likely expected a little better game (Sunday night)." - • Elora scored two quick goals late in the second period and it looked as if Mohawks might have a hockey game on their hands, but the com- petition was short lived. Guenther blamed that lapse on a combination of things. "I'm running with four lines and five defencemen at this time. What counts is that our guys stay out of the penalty box," Guenther ex- plained. "That (second period lapse) was just the culmination of penalties in the second period and the guys wer- en't getting out on the ice enough." Mohawks took a two goal lead in the first period.

Thamesford got a goal from Scott Brownlee at 7:22. Ther - kildsen followed with his second of the night at 11:06 and then Paul Norris and Doug Titus added power play goals at 16:59 and 19:15 to give Thamesford the lead.
