(Mcllwraith photo) Seaforth Creamery team budding fastball dynasty R4' DAVID BROOME Dynasty is a word that has been tossed around with some frequency of late in the sports world, When the national football season started a few weeks ago more than a couple of experts figured the San Francisco 49ers were on the verge of a long stay at the top. But when they were upset on the first Sunday of the gridiron year, the Minnesota Vikings once again proved what looks good on paper does not necessarily transfer to the field of play. W hen you win it all, don't expect the opposition to roll over and die next time around. To be fair, we have witnessed some great dynasties during our sporting past, The Montreal Canadians of the late 50s and 70s; the New York islanders and now, possibly, the Edmonton Oilers. The Edmonton Eskimos weren't exactly dead skunks on the side of the road either. Here in Seaforth we have our own budding dynasty. The Seaforth Creamery clubbed the Villagers 9-2 Sunday, September 15 and swept the mens fastball championship three games to nil. It was the Creamers fourth consecutive title and chances are, it won't be the last. The Creamery originated as the Travellers about 14 years ago and were a woefull bunch to say the least. They won just one game during that initial season. However, things have gone full cycle and they have been the authority in the mens league the past few seasons. The team broke their own record and won 28 straight matches this term and many were of the lopsided variety. Obviously, the good clubs also win the close ones which they did. Te get on top and stay there the organization has drafted wisely through the years. First they nabbed pitcher Doug Leonhardt and that move turned them into an instant contender. But they have also added some good speed, youth and excellent gloves to compliment the pitching. The ingredients are there for a long reign. It is interesting to note the Creamery won seven games this past year without their ace on the mound. Virtually all teams in sport have at least one guy that seems to excel above the rest. The Oilers have Gretzky; the Bears have Walter Payton; the Mets have Dwight Gooden and this list goes on. Even at the pro level you hear the belly aching about how "we would have won had so and so not played." It's all sour grapes. The biggest obstacle the Creamery faces to stay ahead of the pack probably won't be the opposition but the biggest bug -a -boo of all — boredom. Doig . places 13th in PGA event Ian Doig finished 13th in the Canadian Professional Golfer's Association (PGA) Championship held September 12 at Bramp- ton's Golf and Country Club. Mr. Doig who has been on the professional golf circuit for just over a year qualified for the tournament by finishing 12th in a field of 80 in an earlier qualifying round. He shot a 75. At the actual tournament Mr. Doig started out poorly shooting an 80 ending up in 87th place after the first day of competition. On the second day he improved somewhat shooting a 74 and moving into 56th spot. Day three's 70 put him into 40th position which he was able to improve on in the fourth day of the tournament when he shot a 67. That 67 score was the low round of the tournament and placed him in a tie spot ahead of top Canadian golfers Dan Halderson, Dave Bauer and Jerry Anderson. Mr. Doig took home $1,393.75 in prize money. On September 17 Mr. Doig also competed in the Canadian Tournament Players Division Championship held at Brampton's Castle - more Golf Course. Because of fog that tournament was shortened and golfers had to play 27 holes in one day. Mr. Doig finished plus three for the 27 holes and tied for 11th spot. in golf action on the Labor Day weekend Mr. Doig travelled to Endicott, New York for the B.C. Open (named after the cartoon strip.) Despite playing well and shooting a 69 he missed qualifying by two shots. Next week Mr. Doig will be attending the USA Tour School in Sarasota, Florida. He is also looking for financial assistance in the form of sponsorship. He finished 13th this year on the Order of merit, a listing of players based on the amount of money earned during the year. Mr. Doig brought home approxi- mately $5,600 for six tournaments. Seaforth golfer wins Huron -Perth A local student has captured the individual boys high school golf championship. Todd Doig took the title when he shot a 75 round at the Huron -Perth High School Golf Championships held at the Goderich Sunset Golf and country Club Monday. Also performing well in the competition was the girls team of Jennifer Watt, Kathy Turnbull, Allison Scott and Tammy Taylor. They finished second. The boys team finished a disappointing seventh but will have the opportunity to improve their finish when they compete in the Western Ontario Secondary School Associa- tion MOgA)'s competition on Thursday. 1
