Hahns nip Stangs in overtime
take 2-1 lead in series
By BryaRMarriage
In O.H.A. Central Jr. "C"
hockey action this past week
(playoffs semi-final), the
visiting team has been the
victor every time, as neither
Clinton nor New Hamburg
has been able to win a game
on home ice.
The closest either team has
come to winning on home ice
was last Tuesday when
Clinton failed to hang on to a
slim one goal lead and
allowed New Hamburg to tie
the game and win in overtime
4-2..
Last Friday night, under
assistant coach Dan
Colquhoun (former Mustang
policeman) Mustangs came
up with a lack -lustre game
and after opening the scoring
early in the first period, were
nipped 3-1 by the New
Hamburg Hahns.
Randy Millar scored the
only goal for the Stangs while
Ben Doan tied the score for
New Hamburg..
The Hahns scored twice in
the second period on goals by
Becker and Brick to finish the
scoring.
Some unsteady refereeing
cost the Stangs a goal early in
the second period when
referee Ted Carson was
caught - out of position, as
Robt Heard fired a sure goal
into the Hahns net. As a
result, Carson blew the play
down before the puck entered
the net.
Dean Ryan had a steady
game in the nets for Clinton,
facing 28 New Hamburg shots
while at the other end, John
Sweazy was tested only a
mere 17 times.
On Sunday night in New
Hamburg, the Mustangs
outmuscled and outscored the
Hahns by a score of 11-8.
Robbie Heard led the
Mustang assault with a hat
trick while Tim McLean and
Mark King each fired a pair.
Single goals for the Mustangs
were fired by Steve Cook, Ron
Sowerby, Pete Thompson and
Ken Robinson.
The game was a hard
hitting contest, which
produced almost 80 penalty
minutes. The Stangs led the
game'from start to finish with
a first period lead of 5-2 and a
second period lead of 8-3.
On Tuesday night, it was a
different story as the
Mustangs were only one
minute away from victory
,.and ended up losing in
overtime by a score of 4-2.
Ira, an exciting game which
had th,e fans on their feet all
night, New Hamburg's Steve
Adair tied the garne with only
one minute left and sent it
into overtime.
Randy Millar opened the
scoring for Clinton early in
the game and an unfortunate
penalty to goaltender Mark
Nelson allowed New Ham-
burg's Rick Cressman to tie it
up.
The second oe'riod
remained scoreless and
Millar's second goal of the
evening gave Clinton a 2-1
lead which stood up until 18.57
of the final period.
It took New Hamburg only
29 seconds In the overtime to
score the eventual winner and
try as they might, the Stangs
failed 'to score in the dying
minute of the game. New
Hamburg scored into an
empty net with three seconds
remaining in the overtime,
Mark Nelson played an
outsta,ndtng game making 49
saves..
This series is far from over
yet., as the Mustangs have yet
to lose on New Hamburg ice
this year. mit Mustangs can
win this game Saturday night
in New Hamburg at. 8 p.m.
with a lot of support from the
Clinton and area fans.
Remember game time for
this all important match is 8
p.m. in New Hamburg and
the fifth game will be Sunday
night in -Clinton at 700 p.m.
so come on out for an exciting
evening of fast hockey action
and cheer the Clinton
Mustangs on to victory.
Atoms win opener
Last Friday night the
Clinton W il;dex Atoms
travelled to Wingham with
only half a team, and
emerged victorious 4-1.
No less than five of the
Clinton youngsters were
snuggled in bed with the flu.
The second game of_ this
semi-final consolation will be'
played Saturday afternoon,at
3 p.m. in Clinton.
Scoring for Clinton in the
game was' Scott Kay, and
Mark Cantelon with singles,
while Randy Marriage had a
pair.
The team played extremely
well considering the lines
were juggled up and Dayid
Wright had an outstanding
game in the nets for. Clinton.

Colts even group final,
play Sunocos here tonight
Last Sunday afternoon, the
Clinton Colts evened the best -
of -seven series with the Port

apiece by upending them by
the tune of 4-2 before a fine,
hometown crowd.

Colt attack with -two goals
(including the winner) while
centre Greg Burns and"Danny
Colquhoun added solo efforts.
Captain Bob McKinnon and
Rick Ens replied for the
Sunocos. The Colts led 1-0
after the first period, but by
the end of the second stanza,
the Colts held a 9-1 lead.
Referee Allan .Dawe handed
out 12 minor penalties with
the Colts being assessed five
of them.
Due to key injuries to Paul.
Kelly, Rick Fremlin and
Dewain Carter, the Colts
added "Butch" Fleet and
juvenile Paul Priestrap to the
lineup, Priestrap's agressive
play in the second period set
up Danny Colquhoun's in-
surance goal late in the
period while Fleet played a
good defensive game on
forward.
But the star of the game
was the Colt netminder,
Dennis Fleishauer,. who
