The Lucknow Sentinel, 1994-03-16, Page 9Novice A win the consolation trophy The Novice "A" team was in Teeswater on Saturday to compete in the Teeswater Lions tournament. After a slow start in the morning, the boys improved steadily throughout the day, eventually taking the consolation trophy. The first game of the day pitted the locals against a Chesley team that combined both size . and some excellent playmaking. This com- bination proved too much for Luck - now as they suffered a 5 - 2 loss. Bob Raymond notched both goals for Lucknow with Tyler Hamilton and Mark Hackett collecting two assists each. Mildmay provided the opposition in the second round of action. After two periods of play the score was knotted at one goal each. Mildmay had given the boys all kinds of trouble during the season and they were at it this day as well. Hackett had given Lucknow a brief lead with help from Stuart Moffat and Raymond, but Mildmay had stormed back to tie exactly one minute later. The pep talk between periods seemed to have the desired affect. The boys swarmed the Mildmay zone in the third period to score three unanswered goals and skate away. with a 4 - 1 victory and a berth in the consolation final. Ricky Andrew pumped in two, helped on both by Jeff McNee and Jesse Cox. Hackett collected his second with assists to Hamilton and Raymond. The final' matched Lucknow against Belmore. Lucknow carried right on from the Mildmay game with both great offence and defence. At the end of the second period the score was 5 0. Belmore seemed unable to generate any offence as Billy Johnston; the Luck - now goalie had faced only three shots in two periods of play. The third' period was more of the same. Lucknow potted another four goals but with 41 seconds left Bel - more finally solved the puzzle and managed to get one by the Luck - now netminder. With the game well in hand, the Lucknow boys relaxed too early and , gave up another before the buzzer went. -The 9 - 2 final score alsured Lucknow they would take a trophy home from this tournament for the fourth year in succession. Scorers in the final game were Raymond with 4, McNee with 2, and one each for Moffat, Hamilton and Hackett. Andrew, Moffat and Raymond collected two assists .each while singles went to Hamilton, Nigel' Black, Brad Gilchrist, Tim Eadie, , Matthew Pritchard and Adam Martin. Team Captain Tim Eadie accepted the trophy and pen- nant for the team. Congratulations • boys.

They came . from all over :Ontario,. including Sault Ste. Marie, Renfrew, Lucknow, Brussels and Ottawa to name just a few. The quality of play and sportsmanship ' was outstanding. John Part, world dart champion, attended and played in the blind 'dravd tournament on the Friday night. Chris Massena had a chance to talk to Mr. Part Friday night andhe mentioned this was- his first youth dart tournament he has attended and that he was very impressed with what he saw. Dean Tiffin from . the Lucknow youth dart team had arranged to play a game with Mr. Part after the blind draw tournament, but due to Ice Demons end round robin series The Lucknow Pee Wee Ice Demons ended their round robin play off series with two games this week. The first was against Blyth. When these two teams met earlier in the play offs, Lucknow came out the winner but not this time.

Kincardine scored once in the second but that was all Clint Gunter and Justin Brown would allow as •again 'their strong goaltending frustrated the opposing team. • Final score Lucknow 3, Kincar- dine I'1. As the season draws to a close, the team would like to thank the coaches. Rod Havens, Doug Aitchison, Bob Gunter and manager Ted Pritchard for their /time and effort. During regular season play, the team had 15 wins compared to 9 losses. Although the team did not fare as well in the play offs, partial- ly due to loss of the teams leading scorer Daryl Aitchison, they unproved with every game played but more importantly had fun. the lateness, of the end of play .and Mr. Part having to leave early on the Saturday, they didn't have a chance to play their game. Due to the large number of players and with only 64 boards to play on they were all divided into sections. Only the first and second place player's of each section con- tinued on to the next -round robin knockout play on Sunday. Out of Lucknow's four players Dean Tiffin, Joel Sutton and Chad Stanley placed third in senior singles ' divisions, and Mike Cranston fifth in junior singles. Dean and Chad placed third, and Joel and Mike sixth in senior. doubles. The local contingent had a very enjoyable weekend with one excep tion. Considering all the parents, chaperons's, coaches and other adult . spectators the number of people volunteering for. score keeping and co-ordinating sections was pathetic, causing delays of about two or more hours. Senior boys singles was to finish at about 5:00 p.m. it started at 5 p.m. and did not finish until 'between 7 and 7:30, p.m: Nine people from Lucknow went and eadh one was kept busy either chalking, coordinating or playing; sometithes doing two things at once. They were kept so busy they did not often get a chance to watch their own boys play. Massena said she was very disappointed in the lack of volunteers. Lucknow's own player's even chalked for other when they were not playing and sometimes even marked their own scores which should not have hap- pened with the number of people standing about. • • Massena says she was very proud of all the Lucknow people that went down. Tim Bain -and Jason Stanley acted as chaperons, with Pat Everson, Tami . King and Chris Massena volunteering their time to accom- pany the group.
