Irish edge Mitchell
LUCAN - The Lucan Irish split their games last
week with a 7-1 loss at the hands of the North
Middlesex Stars Nov. 21 before edging the Mitchell
Hawks 3-2 Friday night in Mitchell.
The Stars built a 5-0 lead over the first three periods
against the Irish Nov. 21 before Larry Northover got
Lucan on the board midway through the third period.
But two more goals from the Stars put the game
away for the 7-1 win.
In Mitchell Friday night, Justin Lightfoot gave Lucan
a 1-0 lead 57 seconds into the second period but the
Hawks struck back with two goals before the period
was over for a 2-1 lead.
Power play goals from Northover and Adam
Hartman in the third lifted the Irish to the 3-2 win.
Lucan has one game this week, when they host
Central Elgin tonight (Wednesday) at 7:45 p.m.

world's best players,
Bayfield woman carries torch for Canada
By Pat Bolen
TIMES -ADVOCATE STAFF
BAYFIELD - A ques-
tion on an Internet web-
site asking "Do you
have what it takes to
carry the Olympic
torch?" was the inspira-
tion that will carry a
Bayfield woman to
China next year as part
of the Olympic Torch
Relay.
Erin Roy was recently
selected in an Internet
poll as one of three win-
ners in the Lenovo com-
puter company world-
wide contest.
Roy will run in memo-
ry of her uncle, Const.
Rob Plunkett, a police
officer with York Region
Police who was killed in
the line of duty in
August.
Roy said she clicked
on the page "and the
rest is history." She
submitted an essay
with the theme that
even though she lives in
a small community, "we
are still connected and
that knowledge doesn't
depend on distance or
time anyover 6,000
essays from around the
world were received
during the first phase of
the global search.
The field was nar-
rowed in early October
to 18 finalists who were
asked to submit a 30 -
second video clip
demonstrating the most
imaginative and innova-
tive way they would
participate in the
Olympic Torch Relay.
Highlighting the global
nature of the contest,
the 18 finalists were
from eight countries
including: Argentina,
Brazil, Canada,
Germany, India, Italy,
Japan and the United
States.
"We really worked
hard to try and send the
messages as far as pos-
sible," said Roy.
Roy will travel to
China in late May or
early June for her part
in the relay, which will
be the longest and
largest relay in the his-
tory of the Olympics.
Her run will be in Tibet.
"I was just thrilled,"
said Roy of the news
that she had won.
Highlighting the global
nature of the contest,
the 18 finalists were
from eight countries
including: Argentina,
Brazil, Canada,
Germany, India, Italy,
Japan and the United
States.
"Everybody put so
much work into helping
me to accomplish this
that I just didn't want to
do any less than the
goal. Certainly it's
reflective of the kind of
person my uncle Rob
was...it was everybody's
accomplishment and
from the reaction I get
they feel a part of it."
Holding the torch -
Erin Roy of Bayfield will
be part of the Olympic
torch relay next summer
in China after winning an
Internet contest.
