Juniors threaten to overcome first and second place teams Third place Co-op Juniors will play Byron and Clinton for league supremacy EXETER - Scot Kemp went the distance on the mound for the Exet- er Co-op Juniors as they defeated the London North Stars 11-6 on Saturday. Backed up by a strong defensive effort behind him, Kemp pitched the full nine innings recording sev- en strike outs, walking six batters and only allowing eight hits. Exeter also came up big behind the bats with Blake Schade hitting a triple and a single. Bill Hodge dou- bled, Joe Maskell hit three singles, Dale Hopf recorded two singles, Dwight Gingerich doubled, Dan Van Straiten singled and Jason Maskell singled and got on base twice after being hit by the pitcher. On Thursday, Exeter picked up two easy points when Strathroy ar- rived without enough players. However Exeter lent the visiting team on of their own (Dan Van Stratten) to give them nine players in order to carry on with the game. Dennis McCann, Dwight Ginge- rich and Greg Vissor shared pitch- ing duties for Exeter. Perhaps knowing the game was already in the bag, Exeter's defense became slack and committed four errors with all resulting in Strath- roy runs. Mark Glavin led Exeter's offense with a home run over the right field fence and a single. Scot Kemp tripled and singled, Blake Schade hit two singles. Darryl Hartman, Chad Ramer and Jason Maskell all had singles. The Exeter Co-op Juniors are now 7-5-1 with two big games scheduled for this week. Thursday Hole -in -one shooters credit luc GRAND BEND - In the game of golf, the odds against getting a hole -in -one are one in 23,000. Three local golfers beat the odds recentlyby making the remarkable shot that most other duffers can only dream about. Bob Deane from Southcott Pines, Dave McLeod from Grand Bend and Doug Du- charme from Zu- rich sunk a hole - in -one at two area golf courses within a few weeks of each other. Bob Deane shot his hole -in -one at Bayview Golf Club on July first. It happened on the number 12 hole, a 165 yard par three. Deane used a driver for the remarkable shot and said the bail hit the edge of the green and rolled in. "I know it's a rarity but it was just luck," he said. This was the first hole -in -one for Deane who has only been a rec- reational golf player for the last five years. For Doug Doucharme, his hole - in -one was his second; he shot the first one 15 years ago at the same golf course and...on the same hole. Ducharme used a sev- en iron to clear 162 yards from the tee to the pin on the number eight hole at Oakwood Golf Club while golfing with friends about three weeks ago. He made the same shot during a tour- nament 15 years ago but according to Ducharme "it's always a surprise to make a shot like that." Dave McLeod also shot his hole - in -one at Oakwood's number 8 hole. He too used a seven Iron and he also made the remarkable shot on that same hole 38 years ago. However, McLeod is a hole -in -one veteran. This was his ninth hole -in - one since he began playing golf as Bob Dean e Da a teeneger and after a while, McLe- od says the novelty wears off. "1 stopped collecting trophy balls three holes ago," he said. McLeod, who is an experienced golfer, has played in a number of competitive tour- naments over the . ' years but he admits a shot like that boils down to luck and statistics. "There are a lot more people get- ting into the game...with more ve McLeod people playing the odds of it hap- pening more often get better." Still, the odds are astronomical and most golfers concede you're more likely to get struck by light- ning than beat the odds; but mak- ing the ultimate golf shot looms on the back of every golfer's mind. "I know lots of guys who would' - - - like to get a hole-in-one...but it's one of those things," said McLeod. night Exeter is in Byron to take on the first place team in the league. Game time is at 8:30 p.m. On Sat- urday afternoon, Exeter will meet second place Clinton. Coach Gary Hartman said their next two games will be crucial. The Co-op Juniors are currently in third place behind Byron and Clinton but after Saturday that may change. "A couple of Exeter victories here would make quite a big differ- ence," said Hartman. i <1k-Rec.- .04 Blake Schade hit a triple and a single on Saturday after- noon during the Exeter Co-op Juniors 11-6 victory over the London North Stars.
