Home My WebLink AboutWingham Advance-Times, 1978-11-15, Page 15i Winghom Juveniles split first two games of season Juvenile hockey is back in Wingham following an absence of several years and it promises to be an exciting season. In its first two scheduled games the Juvenile team dropped a 6-4 decision to Port Elgin and then came back to defeat Chesley 5-4. In the season opener played here the team was down 5-1 at the end of two periods. Wingham came on in the third period ann outscored Port Elgin 3-1 but it was too little and too late to alter the outcome of the game. Murray Gardner had the lone goal of the first two periods, assisted by Bill LeVan and Steve McKay. Mark Passmore got two goals in the third and Kevin Carter bent the twine with just 22 seconds left in the game. According to Coach Larry Cerson the team is looking for- ward to a return match with Port Elgin and plans to play hockey for three full periods next time instead of one. Chesley came to town for the second game of the Juvenile season, and the hometowners managed to carry over the momentum from the last period of the Port Elgin game. The teams were tied at 2-2 at the end of the first period, with Ed and Laurie Haines collecting the two Wingham scores. A confusing second period ended with Wingham ahead 4-2 on short-handed goals by Paul Foxton and Paul Cerson. Chesley came back to tie the score in the third period but Tom MacLean scored on a setup by Stan Stapleton and Laurie Haines and Wingham squeaked out a 5-4 victory. The team returns to Chesley for a rematch Saturday night. PeeWees on scoring binge down Seaforth, Blyth 8-2 In past years the Wingham.
