By Jeanne Melady Redmen claim B championship at. Flames cup Classic tourney The CHSS Redmen boys hockey team participated in the St. Thomas Aquinas Flames cup Classic tournament last week in London. After playing three very strong teams in our pool, two of which went to OFSSA last year, the Redmen had a 1-1-1 record finishing third and guaranteeing themselves a place in the consolation playoffs. The entire team then stepped up its play against Saunders(London) with an 8-2 victory, and then against Exeter where the boys won 4-2 and moved into the championship game against Grand River. The Redmen dominated the play in final game, with Dave McClory scoring a natural hat trick to lead the Redmen to a 3-1 victory and the "B" championship. Several players had strong play during the tournament. Mark Wilbee and Jeff Elliott continue to shine in net for .the Redmen, Kyle Courntey and Micah Loder have solidified themselves as the offensive leaders on the team, and Matt Carnochan and Chad Wise have stepped up their physical game to give the Redmen an edge that was missing at the beginning of the season. The boys played Tuesday against St. Mike's of Stratford. Local residents to experience Christmas indifferent countries The hamlet of St. Columban is ready for Christmas.
