HomeMy WebLinkAboutTimes-Advocate, 1984-01-25, Page 14Improvement shows in SH volleyball The annual Madill volleyball tournament was another step on the stairs of improvement for South Huron's girls' volleyball teams. Both senior and junior teams ended an inconsistent day of play with close losses in the semi-finals. In their third weekend tour- nament the junior team finished round robin play in third place. In a streak of first game losses and combacks for the second game, SH split with Goderich, Walkerton, Sacred Heart and Wingham. Walkerton was the eventual tournament champions but South Huron kept up several good rallies. Seaforth gave two games to South Huron who in turn bowed to London Clarke Road for two. South Huron confronted the Midgets and Lucan in tie The Exetl'r Kinsmen Generals played to a 2-2 tie with Lucan in their only start this week in the Shamrock hockey league. The Generals with a record of nine victories, nine defeats and two ties in season play start the, Ontario Minor Hockey Association midget B playdowns tonight, Wednes- day against St. Marys. The winner will advance to the OMHA quarter -finals. In the tie with Lucan, Tony Zachar and Scott Lovie were the Exeter marksmen on passes provided by Jim Lewis and Al Pym. Lester Arts fired both suc- cessful shots for Lucan with assists going to Brent Banner- man and Paul Foran. Generals coach Ron Bogart said his club played well, "but, couldn't put the puck in- to the net. That's been one of our biggest drawbacks this year. The Lucan goalie also came up with some great stops." Houseleague Exeter and Blyth played to a 2-2 tie in a recent bantam houseleague game. Jeff Kints scored the first Exeter goal on a pass from Jeff Playfoot and Shawn For- sythe notched the second with assists going to Pat Hartman and Sten We' second place London Trojans in the semi-final match. Coach Pat Rowe's advice that her team needs to move more was neglected as the young team stood by to give Clarke Road a 15-0 victory. Remembering their ability, they forced the match to three games with a 15.6 win. The juniors chance for the finals ended with a close 15-10 loss. The experience of third - year junior Andrea Pearce has consistently bolstered the talent of the rest of the young crew. Karen Rowe, Julie Russel and Paulette Rauthbauer will develop into competent starters. In the position of defending champions South Huron's senior team failed to play the skillful volleyball they are capable of. With insufficient time to warm-up South Huron drop- ped two games to Goderich. Walkerton Sacred Heart was easily disposed of but Seaforth, whom South Huron defeated five of six games last week, grated on the morale of SH to win both games. Split- ting with Madill and Clarke Road the seniors achieved the final playoff spot. Playing number one Goderich, whom the Panthers have not met in league action, the Panthers let the first game go 8-15 but recovered their pep and enthusiasm to win a second game 15-11. Their positive mentality con- tinued in the tie -breaking game until their 8-2 lead - reversed to a 9-15 defeat as the players folded under pressure causing a string of errors. The seniors have had little competition opportunity but occasionally at the Wingham tournament they proved their ability to play superb volleyball if they play with the right confident, positive attitude. Junior and senior teams travelled to Stratford Nor- thwestern last night for a tri - meet with the Huskies and Madill. The seniors play at St. Marys tonight and host Seaforth tomorrow at 3:00 p.m. Fans will be able to view South Huron volleyball at the league tournament in Exeter on Thursday, February 2. The Panthers will confront Mit- Jchell and Seri: MOST VALUABLE - Hensall Whites goalie Glenn Stire was named the mostvaluableplayer in the '6' final in the weekend rec hockey tournament in Hensall.
