Lincolns flying
There is a lot of local interest this year in the for-
tunes of the St. Marys Lincolns in this area and their
fortunes are riding high.
The Lincolns under head coach Jeff Van Vliet at the
time of writing are undefeated and atop the standings
in the. Western Junior "B" league.
With eight victories and three ties in 11 starts, the
Lincolns are three points up on the second place Sar-
nia Bees and five points up on Windsor.
Playing prominent roles in the Lincolns success to
date are three area youngsters. They are Exeter's John
Kernick, Jeff Shipley from Lucan and Pat Cyr from
turich.
Kernick in his second year with the Lincolns was
named tookie of the year during the 1982-83 season.
More on Pooleys
The Ohio State hockey Buckeyes are off to a flying
start in United States intercollegiate hockey this year
and Exeter natives Paul and Perry Pooley are showing
the way.
In their third year at Columbus, the twin brothers
are right at the top of the team scoring after three
games. Paul, the team captain is tied for the scoring
lead with Dave Kobryn at seven points with Perry is
right behind with six points.
Each of the Pooley has scored a game winning
goal while Perry has scored twice on power plays and
Paul has notched one with his team having a man
advantage.
Foot.still a big help
A quick look at the scoring leaders in the Canadian
football_ league proves the foot still plays a big part in
our fall pastime.
The first nine players atop the scoring parade are
field goal and convert kickers from each of the clubs.
Lou Passaglia of British Columbia is the leader with 164
points and a seven point margin over Trevor Kennerd
of Winnipeg.
With the schedule in the CFL coming to a quick
close, a couple of playoff spots are still up for grabs.
The Edmonton Eskimos who have ruled the roost
in the western conference for a long time are in danger
of watching playoff action from the sidelines.
The Eskimos hold a two point lead over the Calgary
Stampeders for the third and final playoff position, but,
Calgary has one game in hand.
The final game for the Eskimos • is against the
Toronto Argonauts who lead the eastern division by four.
points over Ottawa.
In the east, the playoff question is also for third
place between Hamilton and Montreal. Although the
Tiger Cats lead Montreal by two points, the Concorde
are coming on strong and Hamilton didn't look too great
in losing 41-16 to British Columbia Saturday night.
Saturday's 27-8 win for the Concorde over Calgary
was a big boost for the team and coach Joe Galat. It
was so big that coach Galat allowed his 'players to kick
spare footballs into the st..nds after the victory.
The crowd in Montreai Saturday was 27,573, the
largest attendance since the Concorde took over the
Alouettes.
One of the valuable standbys of the Corcorde con-
tinues to be Glenn Weir who is in his 12th year in the
league. The number 64 is very evident as the Montreal
front four try to stop the opposing offences.
Although. the British Columbia Lions have clinch-
ed first place in the west we like the Winnipeg Blue
Bombers despite the loss of running back Willard
Reaves through a knee injury for the rest of the season.
John Hufnagel has been giving the Blue Bombers
good quarterbacking since Tom Clements was injured.
The latter is expected to be ready for some playoff
action.
In the east, the Toronto Argos should take all the
marbles and head for B.C. and the November 26 play-
ing of the Grey Cup. How about the Argos and
Winnipeg?
Panther teams rolling
This fall has been very successful for the sporting
teams at South Huron District High School with a
number of great performances.
Jim Workman's girls field hockey team has won the
Huron -Perth championship for a record number of
times and are shooting for WOSSA and all -Ontario
recogni tion.
Not only has Workman's team gone through the
regular and playoff season undefeated 'they are also
unscored upon. That's a great achievement.
Terry O'Rourke's senior girls basketball team led
by the high scoring Faye Gaiser won the recent Med-
way High School tournament. One of the big ac-
complishments at Medway was defeating London
Saunders 34-25.
Only a few weeks ago, Saunders defeated the South
Huron girls 43-19.
In cross country meets, coach Joe Fulop has been
getting great performances from his team and a large
number of the runners have qualified for the WOSSA
championships to be held at the London Ski Club on Fri-
day, October 28.
The London ski club will also host the all -Ontario
cross country championships. the following Saturday.
In football, coach Dave Cox has his junior gridders
in high gear. They are undefeated to date and certain-
ly have a good shot at a Huron -Perth championship.

Centenaires have been
bolstered byseveral key
players from the defunct Mit-
chell hawks and lead Exeter
by two points.
Seaforth also features three
players from Hensall, in-
cluding former Hawk Ian
Munroe, and this adds to the
rivalry between the two
squads who have given early
indications of being in the
thick of the battle for league
supremacy.

Hawks took full advantage of
an inept Thedford perfor-
mance to boost their early
season statistics with 27 scor
ing points.
The Browns had four
regulars sitting out with
suspension and were never in
the game, despite the fact the
Hawks gave them several
powerplay opportunities as
the locals sat out 18 penalties

situations.

Even then the Browns
couldn't get any team effort
co-ordinated as they general-
ly shot the puck in and had the
Hawks penalty killers shoot it
back out to keep the pressure

secutive game scoring attack
going. Ed Willis also notched
a pair in the well-balanced
attack.
