Sunday night at the South Huron Recreation Centre, the Exeter Mo- hawks demolished the road -weary Dunnville Mudcats 11-2. With the win, and Friday's loss to Petrolia, the Mohawks have ran their South- western Ontario Senior 'A' Hockey League record to 7-2-2. The defending league champion Mudcats found out at the last min- ute Sunday they didn't have a bus available for the three-hour trip so they had to pile into their cars. Highway tired and coming off a loss the night before, the Mudcats trailed 4-1 after the first period and 5-1 after40 minutes. "They (Mudcats) came in pretty flat. They lost last night to Petrolia and they haven't had a good start," said Exeter coach Dave Revington. Two years ago the Mohawks won the title and last season struggled. In 1992-93 it was Dunnville win- ning it all and this winter they don't look as sharp. "After having won it last year, the next year its hard to get that fire." Exeter's offence was led by the three -goal efforts of veteran winger Joe Scherer and newcomer Jacques Beaulieu who, for part of the game, played between the Mohawks best • Dunnville Mudcats' Dan Woitwowicz gets a wrestling hold on - Exeter's Wayne Urbshott during second period action Sunday -night.

For- ward Jeff Shipley who did not finish Sunday's game is also questionable. The Mohawks have split their two contests thus far with the Hornets, a 7-5 in Aylmer on Nov. 9 and the Hornets were the winners 9-6 in Exeter on Nov. 21.... Coming into the game the Mo- hawks are 6-2-2 while Aylmer tried to improve on its 3-5-0 record with a game last night against Petrolia and Thursday make the long trip to Dunnville. one-two punch of Scherer and Greg Snyder. Also scoring for the winners were Greg Murray with two, Richard Hawkins, Tim Shields and Jon Buder. Murray had a big five -point night as he helped set up three gots. It looked like a typical night for Exeter goalie Rick Pikul as he made several big stops and turned away 30 Dunnville shots. "Pikul can discourage them a lit- tle bit when he takes away good of- fensive opportunities," said Reving- ton. The only goals Pikul gave up were to Dan Woitowicz in the first period and in the third to Geno Los- tracco. At the other end of the rink, Mud - cats' John MacDonald may have let in 10 of the 11 Exeter goals but most of them came on second chances as his defence did not clear the puck or take the body. "I thought that fellow played well. Tle made some great stops," said Revington. Battling bodies: Just like any other Exeter -Dunnville confronta- tion, this one had its very physical moments as well as some moments of high emotion. With eight minutes left m the sec- ond period, Exeter's Wayne Urb- shou managed to hold his own in a fight with Woitowicz.

On the same stoppage of play, Mary Rutledge and Dunnville's Scott Allemang squared off but their bout was secondary although they were ejected. In the third period, Buder was on the receiving end of a Dave Butler punch to the face. Butler managed to get Buder in the corner and when referee Guy Constant was not look- ing, get his glove up onto Buder's nose. The Exeter forward went down hard to the ice and was bleeding quite a bit but he did manage to re- turn to the game. There was no pen- alty on the play. Late in the third, a water boule was thrown from the Dunnville bench and although Constant did not give the Mudcats a penalty im- mediately, he did slap them with a bench minor. The Mohawks have added de- fenseman Greg Ryan to the lineup and the 21 -year-old brings - with him a lot of hockey experience. "He's going to be a great addi- tion. He played four years in the OHL (Ontario Hockey League) and was the London Knights first draft choice," said Revington. Ryan spent the past two years as captain of the Ottawa 67's of the OHL.

Snyder led the Mohawks' offence with two goals and an assist with the other tallies from Beaulieu and Murray. "It was probably the best collec-, tively poor effort we've had all year," said Revington. "Trevor (Hunter) was all alone and had. 40 shots," he said of the Mohawks' goalie. Veteran defenseman Dale Tim- mermans was hurt in this game as he pulled some muscles around his rib cage. Mohawks moments:...Times- Advocate three stars from Sunday: 1. Richard Hawkins 2.
