Junior soccer The junior soccer team ended up in fourth place this year with four wins and two losses. The final standings were: Clinton, 10 pts.; St. Marys, 9 pts.; Goderich, 8 pts.; Wingham, 8 pts. The Mustangs scored 13 goals during the regular season with only five goals scored against them. However in the playoffs the juniors lost against a team they had beaten earlier, Clinton, by 1-0 score. Scorers: Steve Lorenze, 4 goals; John Edisbury, 4 goals; Rick Martin, 2goals; Art Clark, 1 goal; Anton Passchier, 1 goal; Karl Morrison, 1 goal. Mike Watson played in goal with a 0.86 goals against average per game. Also outstanding de- fensively were centre half Don Nicholson and fullbacks Leonard Stamper and Nathan Peel. The hardest worked men were the midfielders Anton Passchier and Jim. Le Grand.

This young junior team will be the nucleus of next year's team. They had a fine season. Senior soccer The Mustangs' season record of one win, four losses and one tie did not give a true reflection of the ability of the team. Three of the losses were by one goal only and these goals were scored in the last minutes of the game. The team's best display was in beating St. Marys 3-0 and tying Clinton 0-0. Both these teams made the playoffs. The toughest defeat to accept was the 4-3 loss to Mitchell in the o Penins game of the season. In this game the Mustangs built up a 3-0 lead but allowed the Blue Devils to come back and score four times, the winner being scored in the last minute of play. Through all adversity the Mus- tangs displayed an excellent team spirit and always gave loo per cent. Dale Whitfield, captain, and Brad Klos, vice captain, led the team in"these categories and Brian Arnold played strongly in goal with two shutouts. Mike Dennis and Ken Metzger provided most of the scoring punch, with three goals each, and Gord Alton, Brad Klos and Frank Leahy recorded singles. Next season, with a little more luck and the "run of the ball", the Mustangs should enjoy the success that evaded them Icer most of this session.
