The Wildcats trying to get a tying goal in the third period against the Monkton managed to hold onto their lead until the clock ran out. Corbett Wildcats. The score was 2-2 in the game up until the Wildcats photo. Crusaders record 9-6 win over Seahawks BY DAVE BROOME • The Brussels Crusaders braved the ig-' nominious temperment of old man February and trekked 20 miles south to engage the Seahawks in a game of shinny at the local pond Friday evening. While the Brussels chaps' engines were humming like those of a new Rolls Royce, our side beared a frightening resemblance to my miserable bucket of rust and missing parts. The 'Hawks were in dire need of gasoline anti -freeze, a couple of new plugs and maybe a battery boost. They didn't get any of the above and succumbed 9-6 to the cold - weather Crusaders. The score flattered our chExcept for a 10 -minute nap by the winners during the latter stages of the first frame, and early part of the second,_ the night belongeil to Brussels. They approached the contest with the alacrity of a terrier on the tail of a rat and the leadfooted locals were no match. Hugh Hanley got things rolling for the Crusaders early when he tallied at 2:53 of the opening period. They held on to that one to nil lead until 9:53 of the frame. That's when Doug Anstett connected to bring Seaforth even. Jim Campbell and Brad Hymer then scored just four minutes apart to propel the 'Hawks into a 3-1 lead. Hymers' counter came with just two puny seconds left on the timer. Dave Murray opened the second scene of this one act play with a pretty effort just 41 seconds in. That gave our fellas a seemingly comfy 4-1 bulge, but looks can be deceiving. A series of silly penalties by Seaforth gave the trailers in this affair all the incentive they needed. The Crusaders erupted for five straight goals, three on the power play, to roar into a 6-4 advantage. Kevin Cousins and Kevin Dietner each had a pair for the slick skating Crusaders group and Trevor Pocoluyko chipped in a solo shot for good measure. It wasn't one of puck stopper Derek Cooper's better outings this season. He had a dismal night and struggled miserably. To be fair to Cooper, he had about as much help from his mates as the Captain of a sinking ship gets from the rats. He faced 19 drives during his final appearance. The overwork - PUT THE GRAB ON HIM - A Seahawks player tries to keep a Monkton defenceman from making a breakout pass while Gerard Ryan waits for the puck in front of the Wildcats' goal. The game on Sunday was tied 2-2 going into the third period, but Monkton scored with only five minutes left in the game and managed to keep the puck in front of them unil the buzzer finally went. Corbett photo. ed goalie was replaced by Keith McCLure for the concluding 20 minutes. Unfortunate- ly for our side, Cooper's replacement didn't fare much better. Just six minutes bad evaporated during the last period and Brussels had counted three more scores and a huge 9-4 lead. Kevin Dietner had two of those and the slick Crusader forward ended this productive meeting with a nifty four goal effort. Randy Clarke had the final Brussels marker. Dave Murray and Rob Core, with a rocket from just inside the blue line, rounded out the Seahawks scoring. Seaforth's play dur- ing the final 20 was much better than the first 40 minutes, but it was a case of too lit- tle, too late. Doug Anstett raced in alone and clanged a zinger off the goal post with just a few seconds gone in the third. One ponders the outcome had he scored. Seaforth did out- shoot their foes by a 16 to 12 margin but many of those were of a feeble nature. NOTES: The 'Hawks are a better club than that somnolertt effort against Brussels. They have to be considered a favorite come playoff time. During one powerplay chance the locals looked sloppy and disorganized and failed to get a single shot on net. They are much better than that. Pete Ben- nett, Bob Nash and Bill Dale were absent Friday. These two outfits don't like each other very much and you . can bet on fireworks if the pair meet in post season play. Brussels outshot the Seahawks 37-31 on the night. Nineteen of those drives came during the second when the home town lads played 12 straight minutes shorthanded. Seaforth had onlyJour on the Crusaders net. in what was, no dofibt, their worst 20 minute showing of the term. The 'Hawks will be starting playoff play soon. This is a young group with lots of potentiaL So come out and watch. They just might entertain you.

Exeter beats Bantams by a 4-1 score, local The Seaforth Bantams played an exhibi- tion hockey •ame against Exeter Wednes- day night, but lost 4-1. Scoring the lone Seaforth goal was Kevin McLiwain. He was unassisted. Jacks down The': Seaforth Centenaires Showed a bit of their best and a bit of their worst this week as they took on the Brussels Bulls and the Wellesley Apple Jacks. The•Worst came early hi the week when the Cents' played the Bulls and lost 12-3 in Seaforth last Tuesday. The Bulls were short players and had a lot of midgets in their line- up, but they still managed to run up the score against the Centenaires. Rob McEwen scored twice for the Centenaires and Kevin Williamson got the third and last goal. Defenceman Mike Schoonderwoerd assisted on all three goals, and Terry Pugh and Andy Ball also each got an assist. Brussels, a team the Cents' had beaten on- ly days earlier, really gave Seaforth the horns and ran the score up to 12 goals, six of which were scored in the third period. Shots on goal in the game wereor the Bulls. SEAFORTH 2 - LEY 6 The Centenaires put their loss behind them when they travelled to Wellesley to take on the Apple Jacks. Missing for this game were two important offensive weapons in the Cents' arsenal: an injured Mike Betties, the team captain and scoring leader; and Rob McEwen who has been do- ing a lot of scoring lately and recently had a five goal game. But the Cents' got off on the right foot as Brad Carter, back in the lineup after a long time out an injury, knocked in the first goal of the game, with Kevin Williamson assisting on the goal. Something has to be said about the of- ficiating of this game which was ques- tionable, if not right out to lunch. The referee nut a int of (hnf1 air thrnnoh his Centenaires whistle, and he got started about midway through the first period. Wellesley got two power play goals to take a lead. Seaforth's Carter put another goal in for the Centenaires, but the referee disallowed it saying the goalie had been interfered with. When both teams returned to full strength the Apple Jacks scored a third goal to start a comfortable lead. The Centenaires played strong hockey throughout the game, and particularly in the third period as they held Wellesley to one goal and scored one themselves. Kevin Melady took a pass from Mike Schoonder- woerd to score on a power play and keep the Cents' in the game. The third period saw more of the same good hockey as the Centenaires fought to get back in a game they were losing- 4-2. But it was the referee who ultimately tied their hands as he put his whistle to work again. He disallowed a second Seaforth goal and started loading up the penalty boxes. Wellesley got another two power play goals to put the game out of reach, but even they were telling the referee to let the teams play hockey. Wellesley was called for 34 penalty minutes and Seaforth was nailed for 80, in- cluding two game misconducts which resulted in further suspensions. The final score was 6-2 for Wellesley. The Centenaires will be playing just two more games in the regular season. February 12 they take on Brussels again, and on February 14 they play the Mitchell Hawks. Following the regular season they will start a five game series against Mit- chell to see who gets a playoff spot. Thursday nighters rack up points whopping 306 single. The on the spot always ready to help super spare Carol Cusack swept the women's weekly high with a sizzling 614 triple and an outstanding 219 single. I suggest all of you captains book her ear- ly for the playoffs... she is good. Now for the astronomical point total for the first stunning round of playoff games... Wingers - 2, Swingers - 2, Team 3 - 0, Expos - 4, Misfits - 2, Hlghballer - 2. Yes, I agree these huge numbers are mind boggling. However, we must learn to live with them. They will only increase in magnitude over the next nine weeks so be prepared. P.S. We all wish the BIG/E fun in the sun and you will have it in writing: we are going to let you bowl ahead. Of course we may not..on second thought, I'll save the rest for a surprise when you return to us. ENJOY. Everyone must have spent last week pen - sating entirely on their bowling game because they all came prepared to rack up the points for the first night of playoffs...many attaining seasonal highs. Two of the lucky ones to break their previous bests were Karl (V.P.) Teichart recording a personal high single of 270 and Steve (Sec.) Oosperbosch with a 256. The exec's were certainly on a roll but the ever dazzling D's were not far behind. The infamous D -Team were on a triple streak with Doug Procter's - 732, Don Deighton matching - 732 and Dan Bennewies - 704. Perhaps next week we could persuade them to give the rest of the alphabet a chance to bask in the spotlight.

Sandra Nivins and Lori Hill played great in net to keep the low margin score for the Jr. Farmers. PARR LINE 3 QUEENS 0 The Parr Line ladies got three tyrant goals. The first one came from Joan Henderson unassisted. The opposing goalie mistakenly directed the ball to her. The se- cond goal was by Lori Hill, also unassisted. She was helped by the opposing defence. The third goal was Heidi Elliott who had a superb shot on net and scored with the help of Sandi Fremlin. Queens ladies were totally confused the whole game. It seemed they couldn't do anything right. WINTHROP 1 PERTH 0 Deb Murray got a break as she took a look at the net and let the ball strut its stuff right into the net. Perth ladies were distinguished on the ice. They tried to score but nothing was achieved.
