Lucan Irish forward Bob Grant flies through the air going after the puck during a goal -mouth scramble during a game against Ayr on Wednesday night. Lucan went on a six -goal scoring drive in the third period to take a convincing 9-2 win. Lucan Irish on a two game win streak and ready to play Exeter LUCAN - The Lucan Irish snapped a two game losing streak by defeating Ayr last Wednesday and North Middlesex on Saturday. After losing to Mount Brydges and Seaforth recently, the Irish re- bounded with a solid team effort demolishing Ayr 9-2 at home last week. Despite out shooting their op- ponents 38-8 in the first two pe- riods Lucan headed into the last frame with only a two goal lead, but the Ayr goalie ran out of tricks early allowing four consecutive goals. The embarrassment was too much for him as he took himself out of the play midway through the period. "I thought; their goalie was un- believable," said Irish coach George Pratt crediting the Ayr net - minder for keeping his team in the game after stopping 22 shots in the first period alone. "Too bad he didn't have a supporting cast." Veteran Mike Robb led the way for Lucan by scoring three goals in the third period. He rounded off his hat trick with an unassisted solo ef- fort late in the game. Andy Mar- shall, Roy Davis, Steve Hudson, Adam Duskocy, George Stephens and Greg Henderson also contrib- uted goals. Beating a weak team by eight goals has it's disadvantages, and Pratt is well aware of it. "There's a danger of lowering yourself to their level of play, but we can't do that. We have to keep playing hard no matter what the score is," he said. The one-sided victory didn't phase the Irish who went on to de- feat the North Middlesex Stars in Parkhill on Saturday. The North Middlesex club has a reputation of giving some of the Exeter will host blank Aylmer better teams in the league a hard time with their rough and physical style of play, however, the Irish had no trouble posting a 6-4 win over the Stars. "They're just like any other team. You have to come ready to play every night or else you're going to get beat," said team manager Ken Freeman. Bob Grant scored twice for Lu - can while George Stephens and Ryan Baynham added one goal each. Lucan will not play on Wednes- day (tonight) and are in the midst of a seven day rest as they prepare to host the Exeter Hawks on Sat- urday night. The Irish halted Exeter's winning streak by ' handing them their first loss of the season earlier this month and are itching to repeat the effort. Exeter Chiefs Junior "B" hockey EXETER - The closest Junior "B" team to Exeter will make a rare appearance at the South Huron Recreation Centre on Saturday as The St Marys Lincolns take on the Petrolia Jets in a regular league game. The event is sponsored by the Rec Centre and is being organized in conjunction with Youth Awareness Week. Lynne Farquhar, recreation director, said the Optimists, the Lions Club, South Huron Big Bothers and Sisters Association and church youth groups were invited to enjoy the game which is being billed as an event for area children and youths. "We wanted to do something a little different for the kids," said Farquhar adding prizes will he literally tossed out to the audience in between periods. "We're going to throw numbered frisbees out and a prize is designated for each number," she said, Children are admitted to the game for free, it costs $2.50 for teen- agers and $5 for adults. Don Richardson, is a member of the Recreation Board of Directors and a scout for the Lincolns. He is also a member of the Kirkton Op- timist Club and he arranged the game very early in the season as a special event for kids and hockey fans. Even though St Marys has struggled this season with a 2-18-1 record (as of Nov. 20), and has recently undergone a coaching staff shake-up, Richardson doesn't think the game will be a blow-out when they meet Petrolia, the first place team in the league. "St Marys will be in the game if they play a full 60 minutes," said Richardson. "Either way, there are Junior "A" prospects playing on both teams...it should be a fast and entertaining hockey game." Exeter Tee Kwon Do students brought back medals from the Ontario Classics tournament held In Toronto last weekend. From back row left, Davey Nickel won two gold medals, one In sparring the other in pattern. Tim Nickel won silver in sparring, Mike Wagner won silver in sparring, and Adam Rathwell, center, won gold In sparring. Absent is Michael Henry who won silver in sparring and pattern. AYLMER - Goalie Nathan Hem and forwards Ryan Beckett and Matt Froud led the Exeter Chiefs to a 3-0 victory over Aylmer on Sun- day night. Backed up behind a red hot goal - tender the Chief's five defensman worked hard to fend off Aylmer, one of the more talented teams Ex- eter has faced so far this season. Froud turned up the heat scoring once and assisting Beckett on both of his goals. Beckett's second goal came off a blast from the top of the circle that beat the goalie cleanly. "I didn't think he could shoot that hard," said coach Henri deBruyn. "He put the puck through the goalie not by him." The rough and chippy contest was halted with seven minutes left to play once the game reached it's cur- few. DeBruyn said there were more than 50 penalty minutes called throughout the WWF style match, sending it past its two hour time limit, but added it didn't make a difference as Exeter recorded a sound victory. With a 4-2-1 record, the Chiefs will take to the road on Sunday to play Tillsonburg. Their next home game will take place on Dec 7 when they host Waterford.
