Jr. Belles advance to final series The Jr. Belles Ringette team travelled to Huron Park to play the third and final game of the championship series last Tuesday. Seaforth had their first power play oppor- tunity less than a minute into the first period. A good passing play from Lisa Henderson to Tammy Nash allowed the girls to take advantage of it, and they scored the first goal of the game. Huron Park came back to tie the game less than a minute later. The game continued to battle back and forth with each team answering each other's goals. The fans were kept on the edge of their seats as Seaforth's strong defense and ex- cellent goaltending managed to keep the game tied. Then with three minutes remain- ing in the game, Seaforth's Tracy Fortune scored the go ahead goal, with a girl in the penalty box. From there on in they were home free as they held on to win 9-7. Goal scorers were: Lisa Henderson (5), Tracy Fortune (3) and Tammy Nash (1). Assists went to Nash with (2), Fortune ' (1), Henderson (1), Sheri Kling (1) and An- drea Ribey (1). The girls will now try to defend the cham- pionship against Mitchell. Mites fare well in tyke tournament Two Seaforth Mite teams travelled to Clinton for the annual tyke hockey tourna- ment, this past weekend. Team No. 1 played its first game Friday evening against a very strong Clinton team. The team never gave up and played a very good game but were defeated 7-0. Team No. 2 played its first game on Satur- day against Bayfield. It was a very close and exciting game and ended in a 1-1 tie. To break the tie a six minute period of overtime was played and both teams scored leaving a tie game 2-2. A shoot-out, consisting of three players from each team, then took place. Two shooters from each team scored, leav- ing the game still in a tie situation 4-4. Three different shooters were then selected from each team, and this time Seaforth outscored Bayfield and won the game 6-5. Team No. 1 played its second game Satur- day at 5 against Exeter and lost 5-1, eliminating the team from the tournament. This was only the second game these boys have played together and they are already showing some excellent teamwork. The coaches for the team were Graham Nesbitt and Bill Carnochan and they said the boys played well together and showed some promising plays. The No. 2 team played its second game Sunday against St. Marys. The Seaforth boys were well rested for this game and came out strong. As a result they defeated St. Marys 10-1. Seaforth now advanced to the semi-final round against Blyth, Sunday. The Blyth team was a strong team and were a little too stiff of competition. The Seaforth boys never gave up throughout the whole game, but lost 6-2 and were eliminated from the tournament. Both of the Seaforth teams must be con- gratulated on their fine team play, because most of the teams they played against play together during the entire season and are in a league. Coach Rick Wood said he hoped all players enjoyed the weekend tournament. "Thanks to all the parents for their support, but Dan and Art always be at the arena a '6 hour before game time."

The Bantams played their first game against the East and did well, despite los- ing 2-1. Tammy Kennedy scored the only goal. Tammy however, was injured in that game, and was out of the line-up for the rest of the weekend. The Bantams won their second game as well, this time by a 3-1 score to North Eastern. pain Carter scored the only goal The third game, however, was the most important with the winner going on to the final. Central West had to win another game against North East, and by two goals to be eligible to go on. They did it, winning 2.0. In the final tame Central West bet the East by a score of 2-0 to win the gold. Goals came from Jody Horton and Shelly Lansink. The team was coached by Janice Cairns with held from Ginnette Nash. The Midget girls won more games than the Bantams, but unlike the Bantams won silver instead of gold. They faced the largest schedule with six teams competing for first place.
