Belles het revenge, win final HENSALL - Looking for it`iitfleievenge, the Exeter Belles got it as they won their division of the 4th An- nual Exeter and Area Ringette Association Tourna- ment. After dropping a 7-5 decision to Stratford in the pre- liminary round, Exeter came back. to win the title of the 20 -team event with a convincing 8-3 victory. Emily in the first period, Exeter's Danielle Miners as site burstout of the box, she took a nice pass from Kim Farquhar and went in to make it 1-0. Stratford went up by a goal as Shannon Willemson and Kim Boyce connected but a quick shot from Far-. quhar made it 2-2. The two teams exchanged goals again, Denise Halloway for Stratford and Farquhar for the locals. Late in the fust period Jennifer MacNeil did a good job to stay with the ring and she teamed with Chris Morgan to put Exeter in front where they remained. Stratford could not get the ring past Jana Webster in the second period and the Exeter offence just got stronger. For the second time in the game, Farquhar took ad- vantage of a Stratford penalty and drilled the ring into the net as soon as Exeter had possession. It was almost 6-3 as Heather Davies shot the ring off of the top of the Stratford's goalies' suck twice.

Scoring for Exeter were Da- vies who had four goals and an assist with the other from MacNeil. ,Junior 'D' hockey Robinson's four By Fred Groves T -A staff LUCAN - it was a ease of mind over matter. Last Wednesday night in Lu - can, the visiting Exeter Hawks went in with a positive attitude. The result was a 9-7 OHA Jun- ior Development Hockey League west division win over the Irish. "Tonight's win is probably the first time in two years we've beaten Lucan," said a happy Ex- eter coach George Pratt. While the win, Exeter's ninth in 14 starts, was a team effoti, a lot of credit should be given to veteran winger Shayne Robin- son. He not only scored four mats, but sparked a first period conieback. Robinson who led the Hawks offence last year with 73 points, is off to another good start as he collected his 15th, 16th, 17th and 1$kkh goals of the 1993-94 season. After the game, he said know- ing Lucan had struggled in their previous few starts, helped the Hawks gel mentally prepared for the gamc. "Tuesday night we had a big meeting and it helped," said Robinson. "Lucan in the past was unbeatable. Usually we're psyched out, we have it lost be- fore we play." Lucan got off to a good start as they went up 2-0 on a pair of goals by captain Andy Ross. His first came just 1:06 into the game and then his shorthanded tally, the first of two for the Irish, gave the hosts a big edge. But •just 15 seconds later, Steve Farquhar scored on the powerplay which would be the first of four straight Exeter goals. Robinson scored back-to- back to put the visitors ahead and it was 4-2 when Ray Cousi- neau was on the end of a perfect 6 oals sparks Hawks over Irish Stuart Ashton. His fourthwas a nice long wrist shot which rippedithe mesh behind Ashton's replacement Steve Watson. Robinson has a certain disease which, at time, can make him very fatigued. After being shak- en up in a recent game against Mitchell, he wok a game off which seemed to make him very strong and confident Wednes- .S( (EHL\(, .Sl 11.1i,11?)

We had to score and we did," said Pratt. Robinson looked very strong throughout the game as his third goal came when he muscled his way to the front of the net and deflected a Dave Dalrymple shot past Lucan starting goalie day night. "I felt like 1 was getting wom down, the game off really helped," said Robinson. ' Still upset: Lucan coach Ken Needham was very upset with his team who dropped their sec- ond straight. After the game, and with some of the Hawks looking on, Need- • data made the _j t come out for a skate to show them he was not pleased with their performance. "l'n1 not panicking but I'm go- ing to release some , guys. I'm trying to decide who," said Needham. While the Irish did manage to score seven goals on Exeter net - minder Kirk Durand, that wasn't enough which meant Lucan's defence was very poor. "As much as you try and blame the goalie or the defence, the forwards have to help get the puck out of their own end," said Needham. Wednesday night's game, the second meeting of live between the rivals, came down to the fi- nal few minutes as Lucan's Shawn Fairweather pulled the hosts to within onc. But with Watson out of the net, Exeter's Sean McCann killed some precious time as he went all the way down the rink and put the puck into the empty net.

Lucan regroups, snaps Mitchell's streak MITCHELL - After dropping an offensive shootout to the Exeter Hawks last Wednesday night, the Lucan Irish regrouped and beat host Mitchell Hawks 2-1 Friday night. It was the first toss of the season for Mitchell, the defending OHA Jun- ior Development champions. Lucan took a 1-0 fust period lead on a goal by Steve Moore before Mitchell's Kory Dietz came out of the penalty box to tie it in the second period. in the third, Lucan rookie forward Mike Reid scored the winner which gave the Irish their 10th win in 15 starts. Steve Watson played well in net for the winners. Later 10. Soffit Middlgse&3 Friday night at the South Huron Recreation Centre in Exeter, the host Hawks dominated throughout in a 10-3 victory. Shayne Robinson equalled his best offensive output of the season thus far as he scored once and set up six others for a big seven -point night. The Hawks' top offensive line was very explosive as brothers Todd and Sean McCann each had a hat trick. Sean also had throe assists which is his best effort of the 1993-94 season. But while the Hawks big trio was doing their thing, the supporting cast played strong. Chad Gilfillan, called up from the midgets had a goal and an assist with other goals from Nathan Burns and Shane MacDonald. Although Stars' goalie Aaron Lucas did give up 10 goals, he made a couple of big saves on Robinson. E461itr8M-Bry vacs The Hawks ended their busy week on Saturday as they travelled to Mt. Brydges and returned with an 8-5 win over the Bulldogs. I A Jamie Coanish goal with 40 seconds left in the opening period broke a 2-2 tie. The visitors outscored Mt. Brydges 4-1 in the middle. frame.
