The Hawks needed three third -period goals Friday night in Exeter for a 3-1 win over Mitchell before a 5-2 win in North Middlesex Sunday. Although happy with the two wins the Hawks picked up, Exeter coach Derek Macnair said the Hawks could have played more physically in both games, especially against the Stars. "They seemed to take it to us physically, fortunate- ly we jumped out to a lead and held onto it. I'd like to see us play more physical and finish our checks on a game by game and shift by shift basis. And that's just not happening right now," said Macnair. Friday night neither team was able to generate many scoring chances in the first period with Justin Young getting the best chance early. Young took a pass hi the slot, but was unable to beat Mitchell goalie Andrew Daub, who made a point blank goal save. The game remained scoreless until late in the second when Mitchell was first on the board. Coming in on a two -on - one, Steve Henderson ripped a wrist shot from the faceoff circle past Exeter goalie Cam Becker for a 1-0 lead. Exeter came out strong in the third period work- ing a power play and took advantage quickly with Jamie Wolfe's low shot from the blueline beating Daub. Midway through the period, Nathan Regier put Exeter in front to stay, backhanding a shot over Daub. Mitchell pressed for the tying goal in the last min- utes but Beckers glove save with two minutes left kept it a 2-1 game before Scott Davies sealed the win with an empty net goal. Picking up assists in the win were Regier, Tim Bilcke and Joe Nesbitt. The Hawks never trailed Sunday with a pair of goals in the first and two more in the second on the way to a 5-2 win. Regier added another to open the scoring early before Jason Stuckless made it 2-0 with eight sec- onds left in the period. Davies gave the Hawks a 3-0 lead just 20 seconds into the period before adding another two min- utes later for a 4-0 lead. The Stars cut the lead to 4-2 by the middle of the third period but Justin Knee capped the scoring with five minutes left for the 5-2 win. Macnair added the Lucan Irish fall short 9-7 against Lakers By Pat Bolen TIMES -ADVOCATE STAFF LUCAN — The Lucan Irish split a pair of wide open games last week, with an 8-5 win over North Middlesex in a makeup game, before los- ing a 9-7 decision to West Lorne Wednesday night in Lucan. The games leave Lucan with a 21-11-1-0 record for 43 points, just two up on Exeter for first place in the conference. Hagersville sits in first place overall with 50 points. Lucan opened the scor- ing early hi the first period with a power play marker from Trevor Medeiros at 18:40 but the Lakers replied just 30 seconds later to even the score. The Irish took a 3-1 lead by the midway marker of the period on goals from Trevor Liddle and Steve Wells. But again the Lakers tied it with a pair of power play goals before the peri- od was over. West Lorne took its first lead of the game early in the second but it was Lucan firing a pair of goals from Liddle and Aaron Whitcomb for a 5-4 lead. But the lead only lasted a couple of minutes as the Lakers added two goals before the period was over for a 6-5 lead. The visitors extended their lead to 7-5 midway through the period, but Lucan wasn't done yet. A pair of goals 14 sec- onds apart from Medeiros and Mark Read put the Irish even again at 7-7. Hawks are starting to hit their stride at the right time and are playing well overall. "Our goaltending has been good, we've been good in our own end, our defence has been solid, we're scoring goals and our penalty kill has been unbelievable." The Hawks have one game this week with Belmont visiting Friday night. Jan. 23 at 2 p.m. the Hawks will be taking the South Huron Atom girls in their annual exhibition game. Jan. 28 will be Precious Blood School night at South Huron Rec Centre.

The win gives the Sherwoods a 21-15-4-1 record with 32 points. Hensall sits in fifth place, two back of league leading Durham, with Elora, Clinton and Shelburne tied in between with 33 points. The Sherwoods took a a 2-0 lead in the first period against Goderich on a pair of goals from Sean McCann. They added two more in the second from Jarrett Jeffrey before Goderich got on the board to make it 4-1. But Chris McDonald restored the four goal lead before the period was over. The teams exchanged goals several times in the third as Goderich tried to get back in the game but three more goals from Jeff VanBergen, Jeff Glavin and Jeff Finkbeiner put the game away for the Sherwoods.
