Joe Maskell and Dave Hopf both belted doubles with singles hit by Darryl Hartman, Blake Schade, Scot Kemp, Mark Glavin and Dwight Gingerich. Exeter vs. Arva Leftie Darryl Hartman pitched five innings, striking out three Arva batters allowing five hits while walking two batters.

Exeter vs. London Scot Kemp pitched the complete nine innings. Kemp struck out five batters, showed excellent control, walking only two batters, while al- lowing six scattered hits in the en- tire game. Exeter defense commit- ted three errors. • The Juniors, short of players at this Saturday evening contest, were forced to bring up Paul Gregus from the Midget squad and use a couple of veterans, coacl.ss Gary Hartman and Jeff Keller. Gregus belted out three singles, while Hart- man and Keller each contributed singles in their first and hopefully last at bats for the season. Scot Kemp doubled and singled, Jo Maskell, Blake Schade, Darryl Hartman and Dale Hopf all chalked up two singles. The Exeter Co -Op Juniors, play- ing their fourth game in five days, played an aggressive bunt and run performance in this return match against London. Dwight Gingerich, Mark Glavin, Darryl Hartman and Dennis McCann all shared pitching duties. Playing this many games in five days, Exeter Juniors are confident in their pitching abilities. Exeter defense committed throe errors and must improve this aspect of their game, with most of the er- rors being committed on routine plays. Hard hit balls, double play balls are being played accurately. Pitching is doing well and Exeter bats are the big reason for the Co - Op Juniors' 5-3-1 record. "Halfway through the league schedule, we hope to maintain this better than 500 average," said coach Gary Hartman. Against London, lead off batter Dale Hopf did his job with three singles, followed by Darryl Hart- man with three singles. Blake Schade continues with solid hitting with two singles. Mark Glavin, Jo Maskell each two singles, while Chad Ramer, Dennis McCann both laid down picture perfect bunts for singles. Bill Hodge added a single. Exeter Co -Op Juniors have a much easier schedule this week, playing a make-up game against Thorndale on June 23 at 1 p.m. in Thorndale. Centennials extend winning streak to three EXETER - Riding a two game winning streak, the Exeter Cen- tennials beat the German Ca- nadians 2-1 at home on Sunday ex- tending their winning streak to three games. Inspired by the return of set-up man Ruban Chelladurai, the Cen- tennials were pumped for the game but quickly found themselves in de- fensive mode when the German Canadians pressed early. Good rear guard control of the play by goal keeper George McEwan and sweepers Joe Martens and Joe D'Ariano kept the visiting team from scoring. Their poor shooting allowed Ex- eter to capitalize and score when Ruud Veldhuizen and Dan martens combined to send striker Mark Brintnell in alone. A strong chal- lenge by the German Canadian keeper was met by a stronger shot by Brintnell as he buried it to give his team a 1-O lead. Accurate lateral passing and strong runs gave Exeter several good chances to score again but the half ended with Exeter leading 1-0. The visiting team responded ear- ly in the second half when a blast eluded McEwan inside the near post. The pressure of a tied game energized the Centennials who made it 2-1 after Veldhuizen took a pass from Jeff Lingard and drove it past the diving keeper. John Flanagan and Shawn Rot- teau did a good job warding off the German Canadian wingers and smart defensive play by Martens and D'Ariano kept the visiting team from scoring after they pressed hard near the end of the game. Centennials vs. Portuguese Last Wednesday the Centennials came back from a two goal deficit to defeated the London Portuguese 3-2.

There was little time to recover as Exeter dropped the contest 1-0. Last Wednesday Exeter played St. Thomas in what was almost a repeat performance. While dom- inating most of the play, they al- lowed their opponents to score and take a 1-0 lead.

Motivated for the second half, Jeff Lingard re -directed a pass from Veldhuizen inside the 18 yard box to tie the game at two.

Ingersoll scored midway tht+ouigh the first half on a blistering shot that went under the bar for 141.) Exeter failed td generate any. s% fensive chances throughout.' the game and when Ingersoll notched their second goal, the game seemed out of reach for the Fury, : In- gersoll's third goal followed shortly afterwards to finish the scoring.
