With only three players with previous -Silver Stick experience and facing three teams about which the coaching staff kenw 'very little, .this group of youngsters would have to rely on,.hard work and sheer determination. When group B-2 play had been com- pleted it -proved to be the best matched of the'groups as four of the six games were decided by one goal, another by two goals and the largest margin of victory was Seaforth's 6-2 win over North London. In B-3 Faction. St. Mary's beat West London 6-3 for that group's best game. Other B-3 ac- tion.saw Kitchener get heat by at least 10 goals in .all three games, while Dresden got heat by five goals twice. Group B-1 in- cluded Seaforth's arch rival Mitchell, who finished with a 1-1-1 record for second place in that division. Winning the game was not the bottom line at this tournament. Within each full game there existed three mini games as a team was awarded two points for each period won, one point for a tied period and four points for a team if they won the game. The tight division play of group B-2 pro- ved to be costly to Seaforth because when play bad finished they were second, but hoped their point total of 19 would be enough to advance them to semi-final ac- tion as the "wild card team". But lopsid- ed wins by St. Mary's and West London in 5-3 action left Seaforth with very little chance unless one or the other ad- ministered another threshing. St. Mary's won 6-3 but they split the period by period points therefore eliminating Seaforth. Seaforth started the•tournament Saturday afternoon with an impressive 6-2 win over North London and also collected 10 points for their effort. North London struck first and early, but .. before the period was half over Scott Henderson and Scott Van Dooren had given Seaforth the 2-1 lead.

What looked like an easy tournament on Saturday turned into a gruelling exodus for Seaforth on Sunday. A hot London goaltender held Seaforth to a 7 goal win and, shots by the Pee Wee "CCs" were too numerous to count. Goals were scored by Mike Deveraux, Wayne Schoonerwoerd, Mike MoylaneBoyd Devereaux (2), Jamie McNichol and Mike Weber. Assists went to Mike Weber (3), Mike Deveraux (2), Jamie McNichol (2) and Jason Henderson (1). Seaforth wins first round 7-0. Later Saturday night Seaforth met up with the Rochester Americans for the se- cond game of the tournament. Coach Bill Weber had already been briefed by the Rochester boys during a chance meeting, that they were going to come out hitting hard ,hoping to intimidate the Seaforth Pee Wees. With this knowledge, Mr. Weber coached the boys with a "catch us if you can!" attitude and Rochester came out hit- . ting hard, but unfortunately for them all they hit were the boards. The Seaforth Pee Wee "CCs" used their quickness then to Ringett:e Pettit es :1130as The Petite ringette team was in Mitchell for a tournament this weekend. • They won their first game 9-4 against Mitchell. They lost their second game 7-4, against Exeter and their third game 5-0 against St. Marys. Goalscorers were Kathy Devereaux with 9, Krissy Holland with 2, Kelly Devereaux with one and Erin Seimon with 1. . Assisting on goals were Kelly Devereaux with 7, Jane Crowley with 3, Erin.Seimon Henderson retrieved the shot, and sent it to Nolan, who reloaded and fired it six in- ches wide to the left. Down 1-0 after one period and 2-0 early in the second Scott Henderson let Lambeth know they were in a a contest as he slip- ped one home three minutes into the period. Lambeth tallied late to make it 3-1 and steal another two points for winning the period. Steven Phillips made several' nice stops to keep it close until Scott Van Dooren could shake the constant shadow of numbers 16 and nine who had done their homework on Seaforth's game Saturday. Stop the Scott and Scott show and your chances of winning really improve. Lambeth's 4-1 -dead really looked good until Jason Hulley got the puck to an unguarded Scott V. who cut the lead to two. Three minutes later Scott H. sent a rinkwide pass to Nolan who fed it back rinkwide-to Scott V. who was then in alone to make it 4-3. This set up a flurry of near misses and sparkling saves as Seaforth battled to get a tie. The biggest groan came when Adam Leonhardt picked up a rebound with the goalie down and out and fired the puck wide of the open net. Goalie Steven Phillips made his way to the bench lugged the puck into Aylmer's end and found Henderson in front to jump into the lead for the first time. With 2:35 left Aylmer's Mark Holmes beat Sean Ludwig, who was absent from the line-up for the early game, from 20 feet to set the stage for an exciting finsih. After 2:17 of good action Scott Van Dooren found himself streaking fn alone in hunt of his ninth goal and his team's fifth of the game, a goal that would almost cer- tainly seal a victory. As Van Dooren reached the blueline the Aylmer goalie decided meeting him -halfway was a good idea. But Van Dooren countered that move by taking him wide and as most goalies the bulk of the pads caused him to be unable to react quick enough and Scott escorted the winning goal into the wide open cage. The final 5-4 now meant Seaforth had to sit and wait to see if their point total of 19 was enough. But it wasn't meant to be as West London finished with 20 points.
