Madill student Cory Bragg took four firsts at the recent track meet to tie with two others, for Midget champ. He took the 100m, 200m, 4x100 relay and long jump. High...higher...higher yet! The Madill Mustangs track and field athletes were off and running... and jumping... and throwing. The overcast, rainy weather did little to dampen the spirits of the 60 eager, hardworking teammates as they competed in the 1995 Huron Perth championships. The action began May 3 when the pole vaulters, coached by Bob Campbell, held a competition at Madill. True to tradition Madill vaulters accumulated 44 points. This year's team is well balanced with strong competitors in jumps, throws, sprints and distance events. The 50' long, 30-seat Big Bike Ride for Stroke will pedal along St. Christopher's Beach in Goderich on Sun day, May 28 to raise funds and awareness for stroke, Canada's most neglected disease. Teams of 29 riders will participate in the second annual Big Bike Ride for Stroke on Sunday, May 28 at the foot of West Street. The Big Bike Ride for Stroke is a pledge-based, community event that's novel, wacky and encourages team spirit. The Big Bike will be touring across the province from May to October. The Foundation plans to raise $700,000 from 500 rides across the province to support stroke research and health promotion programs. The Huron Chapter is actively seeking teams of 29 riders to ride the Big Bike and anyone interested in assembling a team is asked to contact the chapter office in Goderich at 524-4440 for further information. Last year's Big Bike Ride for Stroke exceeded its goal of $4350, raising over $6,000. This year's goal is $8,350.

This year 15 distance runners under the able coaching of Rob DeWever all qualified for WOSSA and one of them, Dennis Lubbers, was able to win triple gold in the 800m, 1500m and 3000m. In the jumping events, coached by Sharon Askes, former Madill OFSAA medalist, now Lakehead graduate, 20 athletes gained points for the team. Kris Kreiger was able to win double gold in the Senior High Jump and Long Jump and Madill athletes swept first place in five of the six long jump divisions. The sprinters coached by Steve Merner, also tasted success. One of the most exciting races of the day for Madill fans was the Midget Boys' 100m final when Madill runners Cory Bragg, Greg Montgomery, and Matt Smith crossed the finish first, second and third, then joined with Mike Nolan to run the 4 x 100 relay to set a new Huron Perth record. In throws, also a traditionally strong area, coached by Betty Shaw and Maureen Lisle there were 13 first place finishes and two new Huron-Perth records set by sisters Mary and Julie Lisle in the Junior and Senior shotput events. The Mustangs track and field team wrote a new chapter in Madill's history by making a sweep of all divisions, bringing home the pennant for Midget, Junior, Senior Boys; Midget, Junior, Senior Girls; Overall Boys, Overall Girls, Overall Boys and Girls. Never before have all divisions been won by one school. At the day's end, individual champions were named for each division. These athletes must win three first places in order to win the title. This year Madill had eight individual champions. in 1994," says Greg Williams, vice- president of the Huron Chapter.

Jim Bridges of Stratford has been selected to lead the team through the 1995-96 season. A coaching veteran of 18 years, Bridges has worked both AA and AAA teams in communities such as Bowmanville, Orangeville, Strat- ford and Port Stanley. As a Stratford coach, he earned the Coach of the Year Award. He is an excellent teacher and that is what the team was looking for, says Bulls' executive member Wayne Todd. Bridges is currently coaching the AAA Saugeen City Platers, a minor league bantam team, in a summer hockey program. S. Conley gets basketball scholarship Dedication and hard work have paid off for one Ethel area student with a scholarship to an American university. Shawn Conley, 19-year-old son of Doug and Nancy Conley, a stu- dent at Listowel District Secondary School earned a basketball scholar- ship to the Florida Institute of Technology. Standing 6' 9", Shawn will be an excellent addition to the team. "He is an excellent student, has tremen- dous ability and a tremendous amount of potential," says Andy Russo, coach of the Florida team. Aside from playing basketball for the team, Shawn will be enrolled in the biology program. He says he chose Florida Tech largely because of the academic possibilities as well as not limiting his athletic potential as Florida is a Division H school. Shawn scored more than 1,200 out of a possible 1,600 on the American SAT (entrance exams). Florida Tech was just one of seven schools which offered Shawn a scholarship, including George- town, Portland and Montana. Hoping for a career in the NBA, Shawn says he isn't banking every- thing on it. "I graduate in the year 2,000. Anything can happen."
