CLINTQN - Atter a one week delay
because of the weather, over 200 elementary
students were more than ready for the an-
nual Central Region Volleyball Tournament
t Central Huron Secondary School on Feb.
6.
Boys' and girls' teams from Blyth, Clinton
Pubiie, Clinton Christian, Hullett, Huron
Centennial and Seaforth competed for
trophies and ribbons. Each team played
every other team in a best of three match.
As luck would have it, the top two boys'
teams met in the very first match; Blyth
and Clinton Public were very evenly match-
ed, but Blyth emerged victorious in two
straight games, 15-12 and 15-11.
Blyth bays continued playing well as a
team, never losing a single game, to clinch
first place with a perfect 25 points. Second
place went to Clinton Public School boys
who won their four remaining matches for a
total of 20 points. Third place ribbons were
won by the boys from Seaforth Public
School, who garnered 14 points from two
match wins and two single wins.
Other boys' team results were Clinton and
District Christian fourth with 12 points,
Hullett fifth with seven points, and Huron
Centennial sixth with five points.
In the girls' draw, the two top teams did
not meet until the fourth match, when Clin-
ton and District Christian girls met the
Blyth girls. Although the Blyth team handed
the Christian squad their only game loss,
they were no match for the taller Clinton
Christian team, which ended up winning all
[heir matches for a perfect 25 points and
first place.
Second place ribbons were awarded to
Blyth girls, with 19 points, 'and third was
Hullett, with 15 points. Other teams, in order
of finish were: Seaforth, Clinton Public and
Huron Centennial.
Each player received ribbons and par-
ticipaction crests from the Royal Bank of
Canada in conjunction with its Junior Olym-
pic Programs.
