Justin Knee will be cen- treing a line for the London Nationals this sea- son as they try to avenge last season's final round series loss to Chatham. London has one win in its first three games of the season, with a 4-3 win over Leamington, a 7-1 loss to Chatham and a 5-4 loss to St. Thomas. Knee was also drafted by the OHL Plymouth Whalers in May. Knee, age 16, attended the team's under -17 camp this summer. He was then invited to the mini camp and was signed the first day by Nationals president, gen- eral manager and head coach Rene Vilon. He is one of two 16 year olds on the team. Knee said the team is focused on its goal this year of making it back to the finals after being up 2- 0 in the finals to Chatham before losing in six games. The team has also added Thomas Division rookie of the year and scoring champion Matt Bartoch. Knee will be centreing the Nationals second line and says he had no prob- lem fitting into the lineup. He said one of the main strengths of his game is knowing where other play- ers are on the ice. One of the biggest differ- ences between the two leagues, according to Knee, is the speed of the players and his foot speed is something he is trying to improve. Knee said he was surprised when he was signed on the first day of the mini camp. He added he hasn't felt any nervousness yet and is looking forward to the sea- son and helping the team in its goal of making up for the disappointment of last year's finish. The Nationals have a pair of games this week, visiting Tecumseh Friday at 7:30 p.m. and return - home against St. Marys Saturday night at 7:30 p.m. Justin Knee Panthers open field - hockey season WATERLOO — The South Huron District High School Panthers field hockey team opened their season on the weekend with a tournament in Waterloo. In the first game the Panthers played St. Thomas Aquinas and won 1-0, with Amber Caldwell scoring at nine minutes, from a Shelby Musser pass. In the second game, South Huron defeated Turner Fenton 5-0. Caldwell scored the first after seven minutes, again from a Musser cross, and added a second four min- utes later. Rookie Janita Pfaff scored her first career goal, with Anne Gregus getting the assist. Gregus notched the fourth goal 16 minutes into the game. Just before the end of the game, Leanne Cronyn scored from a fine solo effort. In the third game the Panthers defeated MM Robinson 2-0. Caldwell scored both, one at four minutes with Cronyn assisting and the other on 16 minutes with Kristen Ferguson assist- ing. In the final game of pool play, the girls defeated JF Ross 3-0. Kelly Cronyn scored the first just three minutes into the game. Caldwell added a second at 16 minutes on a Musser pass. Gregus scored the third at 19 minutes from a Kelly Crony pass. Winning the pool, the girls advanced to the semi- final where they played St. Johns Kilmarnock (this years OFSAA host). The game was played at a fast pace, with SJK con- trolling the play in the first half and South Huron con- trolling in the second. With one minute left to play in the game, SJK won a penalty corner. The Panthers could not clear their zone and SJK scored the winner. This was a great start to the Panther season and allowed all players the chance to sharpen their skills and for the rookies to see what the game is all about. The team opened their Huron -Perth season in Exeter Tuesday.
