Senior Panthers are H -P football champs again By Michelle Ellison EXETER -.South Huron -Panthers won the Huron -Perth Conference senior football Championship in a very convincing way, by beating Goderich 13-0 on Saturday. The South Hilton Panthers defended their title as Huron -Perth champi- ons in winning again. The Panthers blew Goderich out of the water as They concentrated on terrific defense in cbmbination with sweeps, reverses and runs through the middle for the win. . In, response to CKNX television's comment of the Panthers "unimagi- native" playing, Panther's head coach Ron Bogart said, "Maybe -there was no 'imagination' to our devastating win, but when the of- fense gains 263 yards rushing, has 11 first downs rushing, one harm- less-passintercepted, controls the ball going into the wind for half the game, and when the defense holds the opposition to 34 yards rushing, allows no pass completions, inter- cepts three passes, and allows three rushing first downs, and the team wins 13-0, - Tell me what imagina- tion do you need." Bogart also add- ed, "Maybe we had no imagination, but I'II take our 13-0 victory any day over imagination." South Huron took over early in the first quarter as Dave O'Connor ran for a 15 -yard touchdown. Jon O'Connor kicked the convert to give the Panthers the early 7-0 lead once. This was on a mishandled snap on a fourth down kick. Fortu- nately for South Huron, Thompson intercepted an attempt pass on the next play and South Huron took over again. Only once did the Vikings receiv- ers get behind the Panthers. At this point, one successful play by Gode- rich could have tied the game for them. Fortunately the ball was slightly over thrown. The fourth quarter brought the Panthers their second touchdown on an 18 -yard run touchdown by Rob Wonnacott. ' Although O'Connor made the first convert, a penalty was called and South Huron missed their second attempt because of a high snap. It is very difficult for a team to claim a title three years in a row and it is even more difficult to de- fend one two years in a row over Goderich but Panther's showed total confidence on Saturday. - Brent McDonald, a South Huron Panther, claimed "We won it for Bogie and Case." _ . The defense played a superb game, keeping Goderich to less than 50 yards net rushing. Jon O'Connor of the Panthers said, "This year our defense had the heart and the most desire to win than they've had in a long time." Joe Gower led the Panthers with 10 key tackles. Norm Bryson had six and Glenn McBeath, Brent McDonald and Jon O'Connor each had five. Once again the South Huron Pan- thers have proven they can defend their title for another year. The team has had an extremely success- ful season in the Huron -Perth Con- ference. Bogart summed it up by saying "I think we kicked their butts!" PANTHERS UPEND VIKINGS - Steve Greb, (23), o1 the South Huron Panthers, upends a player from Goderich Vikings, (30), during the Huron - Perth chamoionshio aame in Exeter on Saturday. while teammates, Brent McDonald, (50), and Andrew Thompson, (28) lay a block on another Viking Ken Fitzgerald, (67), and Joe Gower, (68) look on. Junior Panthers win Huron -Perth By Michelle Ellison EXETER. - Last Tuesday, South Huron District High School's jun- ior boys volleyball team took thc Huron -Perth Conference tide. To claim the title, the Panthers played three matches against Gode- rich, Mitchell, and Stratford North- western, winning each match 2-0. This advanced them to the semi- final match against Listowel. The Panthers were defeated 15-12 in their first game against the Lords. South Huron won their sec- ond game 15-11, and came from be- hind a 7-1 count to win their third game 15-12. Jason Heywood and Jason Clarke performed well for South Huron. South Huron's opponent for the final match' was Stratford Central. Although the first game began 'slowly for the Panthers, good set- ting by Chris Gardner and effective blocking by Ian Verbeek, led South Huron to the 15-12 victory. The Panthers fell behind 5-1 in their second, game but came back and won 15-13 to win the title of Huron -Perth Champions. Stratford Central will accompany the Huron -Perth Champions to the Western Ontario (WOSSA) tourna- ment on November 26.

Forest goalie Scott Vangeel was the difference in the game, robbing Exeter shooters on several good scoring opportunities throughout the game. McConnell scored the only goal for the locals against Ilderton, after he was set up by Hayman in the first period. Ilderton tied the game in the sec- ond period on a goal by Wayne Leemcr and that was the way it stayed. Strathroy scored once each each of the three periods in shutting out Exeter 3-0.

Late goal beats Hawks EXETER - Steve Hagedom's goal with eight seconds left gave the Ta- vistock Royals a 3-2 come -from - behind win over Exeter Hawks in Western Junior D hockey action at the South Huron Rec Centre last Tuesday night. After being shut out for thefirst two periods, Tavistock got on the board after captain Mark Albrecht stole the puck at. his own blucline, while Hawks were on the power play, skated the full length of the ice, put move . on one Hawk' de- fcnceman and deposited a wrist shot in the upper corner. The shot beat goalie Bill Pauli, who had shut the door on Tavistock for the first two periods, with several outstanding saves. The goal tied the game at one, af- ter Mark Morrisey had opened the scoring for Hawks with a power- play goal, at 7:52 of the second pe- riod, from Dave Dalrymple and Dan Nairn and that looked like it was going to stand up and be the win- ner. Four minutes aftcr Albrecht tied the game for Royals, Hawks re- gained the lead on another power- play goal, this time by Jim Lewis, from Dalrymple and Doug Clarke. Tavistock rallied to tie the game at 16:06 of the third, when Spencer Rowland beat Pauli, with Rob Oliver and Jensen Rudy picking up the assists. After both teams had several good chances to get the winner, Tavis- tock finally did, with Hagendom do- ing the damage, from Charlie Lup- ton, with just eight seconds left. The win was sweet revenge for Braves' goalie, Derrick Martin, who played last season with Hawks and was cut earlier this year by Exeter and later picked up by Tavistock. Both goalies playedwell since both teams had many good scoring opportunities. Martin stopped 35 Hawk shots, while Pauli- turned aside 28 Braves shots that were di- rected his way. - Hawk coach Jack Nairn said the shorthanded goal by Albrecht made the difference in the game "That shorthanded goal really turned the game around. We played hard for two periods and got caught out of position just that once and it really cost us. Nobody likes to lose in the last eight seconds, but we arc a young team and we have to bounce back," said Nairn.
