The Sailors simply wanted the game more than Brussels as they outhustled the Bulls for two peri- ods before hanging on for the victo- ry in the third. The loss dropped the Bulls' record to five wins, two losses and two'ties. Brussels opened the scoring with two quick power -play goals mid- way through the first: Steve Fritz from Brett Martin and Bevin Flett at 10:12, followed by Marty Kut - ledge's unassisted effort at 11:39. Goderich scored a power -play goal of its own late in the period, then surprised the Bulls with three unanswered goals in the second period for a 4-2 lead. Fritz set up Kevin DeJong . for a short-handed effort at 12:55, but the Sailors' power play quickly replied. Corey McKee ended the Bulls' •Cy t.7k: l' .. .:l .f ii i. s 'r Y' •7=�,,I ' r' P.U.

Although the Bulls dominated in the third, outshooting Goderich 17-6, they couldn't score the equalizer. The Bulls hosted the Grand Val- ley Harvesters Sunday.

In that game, as in the outer two, Madill out -hit and out -shot their opposition, but just couldn't put the puck home. Part of their frustration was due Jo the superb goaltending of University's �netminder, who turned away 33 of 34 shots. Justin Murray accounteA.for the only Madill score in that game and Chris Fryfogle was solid in net despite the loss. The Madill loss was sandwiched between two physical and reward- ing victories. The first Was a Friday night, locally -televised win over the hometown Euclid Panthers. The con}test was close until late in the tseiid period when Madill broke a 1-1 tie with. three quick strikes to salt away the victory. The Mustang .defence was indomitable and Fryfogle, Paul Helm and Bill McGrath combined for the win. Goal scorers for Madill were Murray, Jaret Henhoeffer, Legion Peewees bow to 'Devereaux thio' The Devereaux duo put on another skating show and led Seaforth to a 5-0 win over the Wing - ham Legion PeeWees last week. Boyd Devereaux picked up the hat trick, while Mike Devereaux and Mike Watt added "single markers. Wingham had a number of scor- ing chances, but couldn't capitalize. Later in the week, Wineham rebounded from being shut down by Seaforth by going on a 15-0scor- ing spree in an exhibition game against Ripley. ' Brett Sangster' led the Wingham onslaught, netting five goals and picking up three assists.

Yc�u can't say the „Mustao$a,.aren't gra- cious guests! ' • After the game, •tlie3'Euclid plaji- ers expressed 'suite awe at the toughness displayed by' the Madill skaters, particularly after a detras- tating third period check . by Peter Strong. The Mustangs' physical domination continued `in their sec- ond game, the loss to University, with trorig, Jason Coultes, Brent Kavanagh, Steve Michie and Hen- hoeffer leading the body -checking parade. Coupes, in fact, delivered. 14 pun- ishing checks and helped set up several' good scoring c Yances for his teammates. In Madill's third game, against St. Joseph's Vikings, Madill seemed much more relaxed and started capitalizing on the many opportu- nities that came their way. And the physical game, even with Coultes and Kavanagh sitting out, contin- ued• to impress as the Mustangs taught the American players the Canadian definition of body-check- ing. odycheck- ing. Strong and Andrew McCutchpon turned in their usual tough efforts, but it was the younger, smaller players such as Henhoeffer, Fischer and the bruis- ing defenceman Russell Sutton, who used superior checking skills to play as if there were six inches taller and 30 pounds heavier. The physical game quickly wore down St. Joe's and by the end of the first period the score was 5-0 and Madill was well on its way to a 7-2 romp. The Hanson line, featuring Ken McDonald,, d'. Jeff McKee; ee; `fin..ai.J' t ;on track despite the absence of ellow Hanson, Coultes. McKee notched a pair of goals and added n assist, while McDonald tallied once. Other Madill snipers included Sutton, Henhoeffer, McCutcheon and Kyle Wheeler on a great pass- ing play by Gallaher. Helm and McGrath split the goal- tending duties and McGrath wound up not allowing a goal in the two games in which he' appeared. The entire defence for that matter allowed only five goals against all weekend and is obvious- ly the strength of the Madill squad. Other stellar efforts were turned in by Dean Whitfield, who filled in admirably for Coultes in game three, solid forward John Greig, Jonathan Lane, Jody Martin and defencemen Jason Bloemberg and Jay Marston. One disappointment in the hock- ey this past weekend was the offici- ating, or lack of it. Not surprisingly, it was not at a comparable level to .the officiating seen by Madill's players . in Canada, but with time and experience, it will hopefully improve. The Mustangs showed much character and kill on their week- end trip as hockey ambassadors for both Huron County and all of Canada. Hopefully, in the future, Madill will act as hosts for a return visit from one or more of the U.S. teams to further benefit relations between the two countries and hockey skills among the many players on both sides of the border. shots directed his way to earn the shut -out. The boys play in Milverton tonight, Tuesday and then return to play Mitchell in Wingham on Thursday before playing in a tour- nament in Harriston on the week- end. ;a' fih'.✓,G,'Jro,"•itisil; ,,07�, c . f YBC BOWLING "B" TEAM Rowan Kerr was Junior Boys' high single winner with 159 over the weekend during the Wingham's Youth Bowling Council regular meet.
