Fifteen teams converged on the school for the one -day event, and coach Jim Workman's squad was ready for the challenge. Teams were divided into three pools with the top team in each pool advanc- ing to the semi-finals along with a wild -card team. In pool play, Becci Farquhar scored the season's fust goal as the Panthers squared off against Inger- soll. Farquhar took a pass deep in the visitors' zone and flicked a shot high into the top corner during the Irish management hopeful LUCAN - Although the Lucan Irish have just opened training camp and are far from nailing down their roster, management is looking forward to a good season with some great prospects. "1'm really excited about this sea- son," said Clare Stanley, president of the club. "Right now we don't look too bad." Ken Needham is back as coach and Jamie Pearce will be by his side as assistant. Between 60-65 rookies showed up last Tuesday when the Irish opened camp and among them was some fine talent according to Stan- ley. The veterans made their first appearance at practice Friday night and the group will now hit the ice three nights a week. Saturday evening the rookies travelled to Mt. Brydges for a game which ended in a 3-3 draw. "I was rather pleased with the showing of the rookies," said Stan- ley. "They certainly went all out." The Irish find themselves with the core of their team returning, having only two players from last year's roster who went overage. There are always a few changes, mostly due to school commitments. Lost is goalie Dan Jenkins who is attending the University of Guelph, and former captain Brian Schuyler also gone to university. The Irish play twice in Lucan this week, and Stanley is looking for- ward to a good showing. game's opening minutes. Tina Campbell added an insurance goal to seal the victory. South Huron's second contest proved frustrating as they came up against Central Wellington. De- spite totally dominating their oppo- nents, they failed to capitalize on any of their many scoring opportu- nities. They game ended in a 0-0 tie and would be their only blemish on the day. The third game for the Panthers saw them get back on track as they faced Resurrection. Farquhar man- aged the lone goal as South Huron won 1-0. In their final game of pool play, the locals played against nemesis West Elgin. Darlene O'Rourke pro- vided the firepower as the Panthers again won 1-0, securing fust place in their pool and a birth in the semi's. Semi-final action featured South Huron against Grand River from Kitchener, a match -up which usual- ly occurs later in the season at OF - SAA. Grand River opened the scoring early in the game, but Wen - di Sims tied the game midway through. The teams remained tied following regulation forcing an overtime period. Tina Campbell scored on a short corner to give South Huron a 2-1 victory. In the finals, the Panthers came up against Medway, the only team in the tournament to go undefeated. South Huron managed to control much of the play, and Farquhar's third goal of the tournament gave the team a 1-0 win and the touma- mens. On Saturday, the Panthers trav- elled to Kitchener to compete at the Schoolgirl's Invitational. South Huron lost their first game 1-0 to Bluevale, the eventual tour- -itament champions. Campbell scored the only goal in the second match on a penalty corner as they defeated Southwood 1-0, and Far- quhar notched both goals for a 2-0 win against Georgetown in the third game. South Huron's final game of the day ended up in a 0-0 tie against Cameron Heights. The Panthers finished pool play in second spot behind Bluevale, but only the top team in each pool ad- vanced. South Huron will next see action Saturday when they compete at a tournament in Scarborough. STEPHEN TOWNSHIP MINOR HOCKEY is still accepting Registration for hockey.
