The Goderich Signal-Star, 1981-07-29, Page 10PAGE 10 ---GODERICH SIGNAL -STAR, WEDNESDAY, JULY 29 1'' 1 Meneset team proves power If there was any doubt about the power and b$Iance of the Meneset . slowpitch team this week's, activity removed it. Meneset all but locked up first place in the A division with three wins this week. • Mathematicallys the only team that could overtake' them would be the Port Albert Bulldogs, but only if they win their last, - . four games and Meneset loses their last three games. On Monday night ,of this past week, Meneset had no ,mercy on Bluewater Centre as they thrashed them 25-1 in five innings. Tuesday was the same story as they put the Firemen away 16-0 in five innings. Thursday was their night to get even with Signal -Star, the only team to defeat Meneset this year. The Leafs held a 2-1; lead going into the MEN'S SLOWPITCH Standings as of July 26 Team Meneset Signal -Star Port Albert Firemen Coyotes Garb & Gear Oldtimers Carlow Optimists Smiths Wheelsmen 1863 Cobras Tickers Renegades Bluewater Selinger Champco fourth .inning but it was all Meneset after that as they scored three runs in each of the last three innings to sew up the 11-7 victory.

The Goderich United 'A's played their worst game of the season in a 3-1 loss last Sunday in West Lorne. Although they played poorly, United could have put the game out of reach in the first ten minutes, when two goals were disallowed by the referee. One was called an offside, the other an obstruction. West Lorne went ahead 1-0 on a goal that csmeabout as a result of United attempting to : clear a corner kick. A West t Lorne fullback moved up and sent the ball- past United's keeper Bob Milner who was playing; as a sub- stitute for Greg Smith. • United continued their lacklustre play in the second half and within minutes farad themselves down 2-0 on a defensive error that cost them the game. West Lorne made several good passes inside the 18 -yard box which caught several United players standing flat on their feet. The result was.. the West Lorne outside left making a hard shot just inside the post for their second goal. For about three minutes, it appeared as though United was going to start one of its patented comebacks; however, a corner kick was given to West Lorne and they scored their third goal on a header by their centre. United finally scored ten minutes before the end on a corner kick that was headed in by Karl Krohmer. West Lprnc went into a defensive shell ' and United, although gaining control of play, was unable to score. The only bright spot for United was the play of John Elliot who was brought ° up from the B team for this game. United has this weekend off but play St. Columbian the following Sunday at home. Kick-off is at 6 p.m. United's record is now 5-3-2 and they must_ beat St. ,Columbian if they hope to move up to first division next year.
