Shoulder problems forces
Lumley to start at Class A
LAKELAND - Tendinitis in his
right shoulder will force Lucan's
Mike Lumley to start the 1989
baseball season in a Class A
Lakeland Tigers' baseball uniform
rather than a double AA London
Tigers' uniform as earlier hoped.
Lumley was promoted to the,
AA roster only last week but Ti-
ger officials felt he hadn't pitched
enough because of his shoulder
problems.
"Mike feels alright and is not
too upset about the situation,"
said Mike Lumley Sr. in a tele-
phone interview Sunday.
"The Tigers felt he hadn't
pitched enough innings in spring
training to warrant coming north
and the pain hasn't gone awa u
to then but they are keeping an
eye on him;" said the elder Lum-
ley.
um-
1e Lumley hasn't thrown in a game
situation yet, only twice in the
bullpen because of the shoulder
problems but threw along the
sidelines last week without much
pain.
The senior Lumley still believes
if the shoulder problems subside
his son will be in a London Ti-
gers' uniform before the end of
May.
The London Tigers play their
first game of the Eastern Baseball.
League next Friday, April 7 at La-
batt Park in London, against the
Albany Yankees.

Zurich PeeWee's Runners Up
in Young Canada Week
GODERICi-i - After winning
the first three games of "D" divi-
sion Godcrich Lions Young Canada
Week, the Zurich Peewee team
competed in the Championship
game. They lost 1-0 in the final
game despite outplaying and out -
shooting the opposition, Thames -
ford. The only stumbling block in
this game was the Thamesford
goal tender who stopped all 44 shots
fired his direction. Thamesford
managed just 12 shots at the Zurich
net and scored the winning goal
with just under seven minutes re-
maining in the third period. The
boys continued to apply the pres-
sure but could not find the mark to
tic the score.
As a result of their efforts they
won the Wm. Westbrook Memorial
"D" Runner -Up Award.
To get to the final, Zurich be-
gan the tournament with a 14-3
thumping of the Godcrich B's. Ken
Rau led the locals with six goals.
in thc second, the Zurich crew
came out 5-4 winners against a
tough defensive team from Watford.
This game was won in overtime
with six seconds left on thc clock
LPlumbing & Heating
(Exeter) Inc.
in the 10 -minute overtime period.
If Zurich had not scored they
would have been given the win be-
cause of more shots on goal in the
overtime. -
Pat Regier notched two goals
for Zurich, with Ben Geiger getting
one, after two periods. Down 4-3
going into the third, Zurich fought
back to tic the score when Jamie
Ramer scored with six minutes left
in the third, to send it into over-
time. Ken Rau finally ended it
a goal with 6 seconds 1'ft in ever
time.
After a 7-1 victory
they reached the ( T' ,nmhi, ,ip
game against Tham i.
Despite the 1-0 loss against
Thamesford, they had an excellent
tournament of hockey.
This past week the Zurich team
headed into the WOAA Group Fi-
nals against Brus':ls. 't was to be a
best of five set
Zurich soundly defeated the op-
position 21-1 last Monday evening
and both teams agreed to end the se-
ries «ith Z;:'i h winning the
WOAA Group Championship in
the S-2 Peewee Division.
