Monkton's goaltender, Darryl Smith, frustrated the Seaforth snipers, holding them to only four goals in two games, as Seaforth lost 6-3 in Monkton and 2-1 at home. In Monkton the teams traded first period goals with Nick Elligsen, assisted by Josh Holland scoring for Seaforth. In the second period Monkton scored two unanswered goals to build a'3-1 lead. Monkton went ahead 4-1 before Mark Flanagan was set up by Jason Denys and Steve Carnochan to narrow the gap to 4-2. Monkton put the game out of reach with two more tallies before Josh Holland found the net in the late stages of the 6-3 game. It was do or die -last Saturday afternoon for the Seaforth Novices and despite a heroic effort by the entire squad, especially goaltenders Kyle Teichert and Greg Medd, Moncton eked out a 2-1 victory. The first period was scoreless as both goalies thwarted the shooters. In the second period Monkton took a one goal lead that held up until the third. Five minutes into the final frame Monkton upped the score to 2-0. Seaforth missed several glorious chances before Nick Elligsen scored for Seaforth. With the goalie out in favour of an extra attacker Seaforth buzzed the Monkton net but couldn't put the puck behind Darryl Smith as Monkton hung on for the 2-1 win and a sweep of the series. Tykes finalists in Tara by Keith Murray The Seaforth Tykes travelled to a tournament in Tara on Saturday Feb, 19. The short-staffed squad played with grit and determination. They did their coaches, parents and even the town proud with their enthusiasm, teamwork and sports- manship. SEAFORTH 15 LIONS HEAD 0 Seaforth thoroughly dominated this game. Seaforths goalie David Verbeme made the required stops to earn the shutout. Ryan Nurse, Brittany Williams and Stephen Medd contributed greatly to this landslide result. SEAFORTH 6 - TARA 4 In this the most exciting game in the tournament, Matthew Carnochan opened the scoring for Seaforth. Tara came back with two of their own to make the score 2-1. Bradley Henderson then scored the equalizer to make it 2-2 at the end of the first period. A cast of gloom set in midway through the second period as Tara made it 4-2 and it appeared that the tournament would be over for Seaforth. Nevertheless, the local boys showed their never -say -die attitude and displayed no sign of quitting. Bradley Henderson scored to make it 4-3. Suddenly, within the span of one minute midway through the third period David Verbeme not only got the tying goal but the go- ahead goal as well. Having accom- plished this comeback the fans felt a huge sense of relief as Matthew Carnochan notched the insurance 147.

Spnce for the • marker late in the game to make the final score Seaforth 4 - Tara 2. This was only Tara's third loss of the season. WASAGA BEACH 9 SEAFORTJI 3 Talk about jumping out of the frying pan into the fire! Before this game the players and fans watched the- powerhouse Wasaga Beach squad eliminate Zurich from the tournament. Most teams would fall as easy prey in the final game, but not Seaforth Tykes. To give a true indication that the score was not indicative of the game Seaforth shot into the lead in the early moments of the game on a goal by Bradley Henderson off a pretty pass by Tyler Elligsen while Wasaga Beach did not record a single shot on goal in the fust period. However, Wasaga Beach bounced back in the second period to go ahead 3-1. The roof caved in at the start of the third as Wasaga Beach scored 5 goals in 2 minutes to put the game out of reach. However, the team wanting to send everyone home happy after the tournament did so as Callahan O'Reilly scored two late goals to round out the scoring in this game. Brendan Murray played an excellent game on defense thwarting Wasaga Beach rushes while consistently clearing the puck from the Seaforth zone. The parents must be congratulated also for getting the players in Tara for a 9 a.m. start for the first game while waiting around the arena for nearly 10 hours while the tourna- ment played its course. Congratula- tions parents, (P.S. Believe me the players sure hear your cheers on the ice.) The Tykes' next practice is on Saturday, Feb. 26 at 11:30 while they lost (note time change) Wingham at the Arena on Sunday, Feb. 27 at 6:30. Streams, rivers pose dangers The warm weather experienced on February 18, 19 and 20 has cleared the ice from many smaller watercourses and severe- ly weakened the ice on larger rivers. The Maitland Valley Conservation Authority (MVCA) would like to remind everyone about the hazards posed by streams, rivers and drains at this time of year. Parents are urged to warn their children of the dangers of playing along frozen or flooded watercourses. The teamperature of water at this time of year is between 1 and 3 degrees celsius (34 to 37 degrees Fahrenheit). In water this cold, hypothermia can occur in just a few minutes. The MVCA suggests everyone stay away from watercourses, both large and small. toimunity DAVID SOOIT PHOTO AN ALIEN? - Jason Hayes, David Dietz and Jason Badley worked together on a snow sculpture Friday moming at Seaforth Public School.

Can't recycle dynamite boxes A letter to Ken Hunter from Sifto Canada regarding the MHLS and banned cardboard stated "We were informed by our supplier that the cardboard packaging from our explosives products cannot be recycled and must be disposed of with regular garbage to landfill. I understand this is a requirement of the Ministry of Labour." "You can't recycle dynamite boxes," said Ken Hunter. C4th novice downs Sutton in final They say you can't win in hockey without goaltending. How about a goals -against average of one per game? You've heard it said that you can't score from the penalty box. A team that averages about one minor penalty per game should do well. A good team needs balance throughout the line-up. Three equal lines and a defensive corps that makes the blueline look like the ofd Iron Curtain should be able to wear down most opponents. Hockey coaches dream about players who make the big play at a crucial moment in the game. Stopping a penalty shot in a 2-0 game or spear- heading the rush that ends in the winning goal being scored with just 39 seconds left in a championship certainly qualify as "big plays". They say good teams have disci- pline, Good teams have players who don't retaliate when they're fouled because the team comes first and to take a foolish, selfish penalty would ,hurt the team. Skating away from slashes, trips, butt -ends and the like all qualify as showing discipline, All these truisms, and more apply to the Scaforth Novice I's, who took to the road last weekend, all the way to Wasaga Beach, and who carne home Sunday night, tired but happy tournament champions. Seaforth played five games in two days and won them all. Seaforth's first opponent was Schomberg and it took all the road weary warriors . from Seaforth had to dispatch this pesky squad by a 2- 1 margin. The line of Barry Young, Josh Holland and Nick Elligsen did all Seaforth's scoring in this game as Elligsen set up both Holland and Young for the Seaforth victory. In' the second match Saturday Seaforth blanked their hosts 3-0. Kyle Teichert and Greg Medd shared goaltending duties in the shutout. Seaforth scored in each period with Steve Carnochan pot- ting what the eventual winner with Mark Flanagan and Mike Del Vecchio drawing the assists. Barry Young scored in the second, assisted by Greg McGrath and Joey Nesbitt. Nesbitt completed Scaforth's scoring on a pats from Billy Gridzak. On Sunday, Seaforth met its eventual championship final oppo- nent, pppo-o-nent, Sutton. Seaforth built up a 2-0 lead, gave up a goal and then pounded home four unanswered goals to whip Sutton 6-1. Josh Holland earned the hat -trick in this game and single markers went to Barry Young, Joey Nesbitt and Nick Elligsen. The 3-0 record moved Scaforth into the championship round and Seaforth's first opponent was Osprey. Jason Denys gave Seaforth an early lead. Osprey tied the game but Nick Elligsen made it 2-1, a lead the Novices never relinquished, as they skated to the eventual 6-1 victory. Other Seaforth markers were scored by Jason Denys, Joey Nesbitt and Mike Del Vecchio, who had a pair. The victory over Osprey put the Novices into the final against an angry and determined Sutton Squad. Fans at the Wasaga arena were treated to the novel sight of seeing parents scrape the ice with sheets of plywood in order to prepare the playing surface for the game. The Zamboni had Broken down and four games on unflooded ice had made the surface virtually unplayablc. The plywood scrapers weren't the last ridiculous scene. The Sutton coach topped that on his way to a • gross misconduct penalty for his treatment of the officials. Seaforth scored first as Joey Nesbitt set up Kyle Devereaux. Nick Elligsen made it 2-0 on a pass from Josh Holland. After the misconduct penalties, to a Sutton player and to the coach, and, what looked to be a fairly secure Seaforth lead, both teams retired for a well-earned rest. In the third, Sutton roared back and midway through the period the game was tied and Sutton was pressing. Just when it was most needed, another big play from the Seaforth squad. Mike Del Vecchio , lugged the puck down the ice and as he crossed the Sutton blueline his pass missed Josh Holland and ended up in the corner. Nick Elligsen dug the puck out. fed it to Del Vecchio whose attempted wrap- around ended up on the stick of Josh Holland. With just 39 seconds left on the clock, Holland ham- mered home the winner for a tired, happy and deserving group of boys wearing gold, green and white. They say that good teams know how to be good winners. The Scaforth Novice I hockey club qualifies under this category tool • • .....,......, ....,., . _ - -r.. ..,..1,... M •
