Hawks tangle with Irish, Exeter comes out on top
By Ben Forrest
TIMES -ADVOCATE STAFF
LUCAN The Exeter Hawks
posted an overtime victory Nov.
12, beating the Lucan Irish 4-3.
Exeter s Jake Jeffrey opened
the scoring early in the first peri-
od on a goal assisted by Thomas
Harnett. Lucan answered back
with two goals in the next three
minutes, the first coming from
Zack Yeo and the second from
Jimmy Kim.
Lucan increased its lead in the
second period on a goal from
Dustin McTaggart, but Hawks
players Scott Muirhead and Har-
nett scored late in the frame, eve-
ning the score at 3-3.
There was no further scoring
until the second minute of over-
time, when Exeter s Jake Jeffrey
iced the victory, scoring a power
play goal.
Hawks coach Jamie Pearce said
he was pleased with his team s
effort on the night, calling it a
good effort all around.
As has frequently been the case
this season, the Hawks goalten-
ding was a strength.
Our goaltending is keeping
us in games, Pearce said. The
whole team has won the game,
but a lot of the games that we ve
lost, we ve had a chance to win.
Our goalies are the ones that
have given us that chance.
Irish coach Russ Morningstar
tipped his hat to Exeter s effort,
but expressed concerns about his
own team s consistency level.
We seem to let the other team
bring things to us, he said. At
times we played really well, and
other times we just don t.
The biggest thing for Lucan at
this point in the season is try-
ing to get any points you can,
Morningstar said.
I know that Exeter and Lam-
beth are really battling, and they
want to make sure they make
the playoffs, he said. I m sure
they re both looking up and
saying, We can catch Lucan or
Parkhill or whatever the case
maybe.
For us, we just want to keep
pace and hopefully put a little
string together and catch Mt.
Brydges or at least catch Parkh-
ill ... and challenge for those top
two spots.
Lucan sat third in its division
at press time, behind Mt. Brydg-
es and North Middlesex (Parkh-
ill).
They battled North Middlesex
Nov. 15, losing 4-1. Lucan s lone
goal came from Adam Hartman
with roughly five minutes re-
maining.
Our effort level s there, said
Morningstar. We want to skate,
we want to win, so the competi-
tiveness is there. It s just chan-
nelling the effort in the right
direction.
The thing I really like about
our team is that we want to
win, he added. It s just some-

times you struggle to find ways
to win.
You 11 see a team like Mt. Bry-
dges who always seem to find a
way to win a hockey game, and
we re just trying to discover that
in Lucan. There s always a way
to do it, and we ve got to figure
it out.
The Hawks, who sat in fourth
place in the Yeck Conference
at press time, also need to find
ways to win. They struggled to
find the right mix Nov. 14 against
Thamesford, losing 8-1.
Exeter s lone goal came from
Harnett late in the first period.
The Hawks faced a barrage of 55
shots, and surrendered five goals
in the second period.
It came down to a one -period
lapse again. Something hap-
pened in the second period, and
they couldn t find the [on/off]
switch, said Pearce. That s
been pretty much the story all
year.
He cited quality victories
against top teams but also games
when his team has gone to sleep
for a period.
There s a switch there some-
where, he said. I m still look-
ing for it.
Injuries remain a concern for

Exeter as soon as one guy
gets healthy, it seems like two go
down Pearce said but their
coach is not yet in panic mode.
Reaching the playoffs and play-
ing .500 hockey remains Pearce s
goal, and one he thinks is within
the team s reach.
Next steps for the Irish
Next up for the Irish are games
against Lambeth and Wellesley
two teams that are not high in
the standings, but cannot be tak-
en lightly, Morningstar believes.
I don t think you can take any
team in Junior hockey lightly,
he said. You never know what s
going to happen in Junior hock-
ey, especially at the Jr. D level.
The biggest thing for us is not
to worry about who we re play-
ing but let s more worry about
our style and where to correct
our shortcomings.
Indeed, Morningstar s goal for
the first 20 games of the season
is to get Lucan s own house in
order.
Let s worry about ourselves
and make sure our game plan
and our style is up to par, and
not worry too much about what
other teams are doing right
now, he said.
