Howick Midget team is» semi-finalist at Hanover If you can't score, you can't win and that sums up the first game the Howick Midgets played in the 4th Annual Hanover Midget hockey tournament on April Fool's week- end. The Howie* squad faced the host Hanover team on Friday evening. Although the team played well, Hanover managed to score two goals including one on the power play to defeat Howick 2-0. Both goaltenders, Peter Stewart of Howick and Shawn Hagan played extremely well for their teams. Both the first and third peri- ods were scoreless. Hanover did all the damage in the middle frame. Jeremy Burgess put a dribbler by Peter Stewart with only three sec- onds left in a Hnover power play. The puck just managed to cross the goal line inches away from Stew- art's outstretched glove hand. The second goal by Mike Leith came with only 53 seconds left in the period. Howick was caught with both defensemen deep in the Hanover zone. The loss puts Howick in a deep hole. Howick is in a group with Hanover, Elmvale and North Lon- don. The top two teams continue to advance in the tournament, with the bottom two being eliminated. Congratulations Jaret Henhoeffer on being awarded Howick's MVP for the game. GAME 2 Howick 2, Elmvale 1 Howick was forced to win the remaining two games in their diyi- I p t;; s Flrn- vale at 8:00 a.m.' ort A' 'rt ^Food's Day. The game turned out to be a barn burner as both teams, needed a win. Once again goaltending dominat- ed this game. Peter Stewart of Howick and Craig Cochrane for Elmvale were, outstanding.

The Livermore brothers, Donal and Philip, initiated a pass to Jacob son at the point and his low slap shot found the corner of the cage. Each team scored in the middl frame. A power play goal by Sco Aicker with 1:57 left in the perio tied the score at one apiece. Only 26 seconds later the MacGregor broth ers, Jeff and Steven, led a rush th length of the ice and resulted wit Jeff giving Todd Templeman a per- fect er fect pass in the slot for the goal. This proved to be the winnin goal as neither team could put puck by the goalies in the thir period. The result was a hard earned 2- victory The four Howick defensemen Craig King, Rod Mann, Jeff Mac Gregor and Jacobson played grea defensively in front of Stewart. The four were also very strong when Howick was playing short handed. Congratulations to goalie Peter Stewart for being named the MVP of the game. GAME 3 Howick 10, North London 0 If one compares scores with what a team does with other teams in their division, this game should have been a close contest. The very opposite occurred. The biggest reason for the lopsid- ed score was the result of North London taking 15 minor penalties and a game misconduct. The Howick team responded to alt'thgSe;ng�ies�in, a psi o#ive way` by scoring five power play goals. Howick led 3-0 after one period of play. Philip Livermore led the attack . with two power play goals. Jaret Henhoeffer scored the third goal. Assists in the period went to Donald Livermore, Rod Mann and Henhoeffer. Donald Livermore scored the only goal of the second. period when Howick held a man advan- tage. Henhoeffer and Jason Jacob- son set up the goal. The Howick squad exploded for six unanswered third period goals. Henhoeffer scored two goals to give him a hat -trick. Single tallies went to Andrew Weber, Craig King, Todd Templeman and Jason. Jacob- son. King and Henhoeffer scored power play goals. Templeman and Jacobson scored into an empty net! This was not an April Fool joke either. London pulled their goalie to try and prevent a shutout, but.it backfired. Assists on Howick's third period goals went to Jacobson, Temple- man, John Greig, Chris Reichard and Donald Livermore. Peter Stew- art and Mark Fraser shared the shutout. With the two wins Howick advanced out of the round-robin division along with Hanover who won all three games played. An obstacle the Howick team must overcome is the game miscon- duct to defensernan Jeff MacGregor for fighting in the last minute of play. The rules for the tournament prevent a player from further par- ticipation. GAME 4 Howick 2, Six Nations 1 -In game four Howick met Six Nations who were winners of the "B" division at 8:00 a.m. in the morning. It turned out to be a fast - paced game.

GAME 5 Howick 4 Port Elgin 0 Howick met the winner of "C" and "D" . divisions at 12:00 noon on Sunday. Their opposition was Port Elgin. The game was roughly played and turned ugly late in the third period with some unneces- sary tactics being employed by the Port Elgin team. Howick continued to play as a feani "moving the -IAA -very well offensively and playing.a systemat- ic backchecking game. Chris Reichard and Todd Templeman were moved back to play defense for the holes left • by Jacobson and Jeff MacGregor who were missing from the line-up. The lone goal of the first period was scored by Howick's Jaret Hen- hoefferfter a only 1Y 21 seconds had elapsed. Henhoeffer tipped in Don- ald Livermore's low drive from just inside the blue line. The lead was increased to 2-0 after two periods when Jason Car- riere scored after fine passes from Henhoeffer and Rod Mann. Each team had a player in the penalty box at the time. Howick scored two quick power play goals in the third period. Philip Livermore pulled the trigger on a three-way passing play with brother Donald and Henhoeffer. A hard drive by Chris Reicha?P from the point increased the lead to 4-0. Craig King and Carriere assisted. With four minutes left in the game the contest turned ugly with many penalties being handed out to Port Elgin for being overly.aggres- sive.

The referee called a halt to the game with three minutes left thus giving Howick a 4-0 win. The shutout was recorded bu Peter Stewart and well-deserved. Jason Carriere was voted the MVP award. GAME 6 Hanover 5, Howick 3 A tired but determined Howick team battled Hanover to the very end in the championship game. It so happened the two squads that opened the tournament were to meet in the championship game after 60 games were played in the tournament.
