Dave Robilliard and Paul Gregus led the way with 10 points each while Christian Stucktess, Kris Leppington and Heath Palen all netted six each. On Thursday the basketball teams travelled to Clinton and while the seniors and midgets beat host Central Huron, the juniors weren't as fortunate. Monday the juniors were sched- uled to host Wingham's F.E. Madill in a Huron semi-final game but that was postponed because of bad weather. The same goes for the sen- ior as they were supposed to take on Madill. The winner of the games will take on Goderich who seem to be the powerhouse in all three divi- sions this winter. Thursday the midgets will host the Huron Conference tournament beginning with Seaforth taking on Central Huron at 9 a.m. followed by South Huron against F.E.

Hot streak continues as Irish win seventh straight. Lucan has just two games left and are trying to move up in the west standings By Fred Groves T -A staff LUCAN - A slow start doesn't always mean a slow finish. Last Wednesday night in Lucan, the Irish battled visiting Belmont Bombers to a 1-1 tie after the sec- ond period but when the horn went after 60 minutes it was a 4-1 win for Lucan. Saturday in Belmont, the Irish made it two in a row over the Bombers in OHA Junior Development League action and seven consecutive wins as they came out on top 7-5. "I don't think Belmont changed their style. We've been doing that (slow start) for the past three games," said Lucan co -coach Jeff Dalrymple after Wednes- day's game. "We came out slow in the first and we got better in the second." After Belmont took a 1-0 lead, Lucan defenseman Bryan Steifel tied it up with 48 seconds left in the first frame. There was no scoring in the middle pe- riod before the hosts exploded for three in the final 20 minutes. The best scoring chance in the second was by Lu - can when Steve Hudson went in alone but he was stopped by Ian Burt. • "We had a lot of shots on them, their goalie played pretty good," said Dalrymple of Burt. Following a scoreless second, the Irish came to life as Dave Lindberg went in on a breakaway and al- though stopped, he helped set up what proved to be the winning goal. A couple of minutes after his attempt, he and vet- eran Greg DePrest fed Hudson to make it 2-1. Jeremy Jemec who had three points on the night, let go with a shot from' the slot which seemed to screen Burt and it was a two -goal cushion. With 39 seconds left in the game, Scott Riddell was all alone at the side of the net and tapped one in. "We're getting more shots. Usually we just waited for the perfect pass. You're not going to score the chincey ones unless you shot," said Dalrymple. Steve Watson picked up his second straight win in net and it was the second game in a row the veteran only allowed one puck to get past him. He and Kny- vet Carson have been rotating but Carson had been sick the past week or so. • "For a while he (Watson) had a couple of weak games but with Knyvet there he knows he has to pick 1 k' p his game," said Dalrymple. Watson came up real big in the third period when. th 3:17 left to play and the Irish up by two, he made one save and then quickly got across the goal line to grab a shot which bounced off the post and into his glove. Set combinations: Wednesday. the Irish had some set line combinations which the coaches seem to like. DePrest was with Lindberg and Hudson while Rid- dell, Jemec and roo- kie George Stephens are another solid trio. "We have three lines that stay the same all the time," said Dalrymple. Captain Steve Mat- thews has been out four games due to a suspension and prior to that he Was on the number one line with Hudson and De- Prest. It could be interesting to see, what happens when he returns. "He might get back onto that line or he might end up on the third line. Right now we are using four lines and tonight we had seven defensemen," said Dalrymple. Another scoring combination is veterans Jemec and Riddell. Since Jemec returned from school and Rid- dell has gotten healthy, they've been tough to keep off the scoreboard. Irish 7 Bombers 5 Saturday night in Belmont in a return game with the Bombers, the Irish moved closer to fourth place in the west division. DePrst and Christian Criel had five -point nights as DePrest scored four times and set up another while Criel had one goal and four assists. Also scoring for the winners were Soctt Riddell and Dave Jenken. Riddell was speared in the throat but should be alright for tonight's game. Lucan will try and increase their winning streak to eight games tonight when they host Mitchell in their final regular season home game.
