SPORT THOUGHTS ou Braa Kelly Late Goal Gives Orono a 3-2 Victory The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, August 29,1990 11 Some people in the Town of Newcastle must have been awfully busy in the off-season. That's the only logical explanation I can come up with as to why there are so many recreational programs available. Anyone who read last week's Statesman, couldn't help but notice the advertisements on the sports pages. For those who weren't counting, counting, there were seven ads listing registration times and places for various programs offered within the Town. And there was a wide variety for both boys and girls. Instructional swimming, swimming, girls' hockey, boys' hockey, Eagles' try-outs, competitive swim team, and figure skating all had ads listing dates and times of registration for the upcoming season. Those seven are some of the more popular pro- Ï rams but that list oesn't even begin to scratch the surface of what's available. Take a quick glance through the Town of Newcastle Activity Activity Guide, and you'll find hundreds of programs available for both the young and old. But all of this. got me to wondering: Are there really enough people in the Town to fill all of these programs? Are there enough volunteers to help support these programs? programs? And most important, important, do people in the Town have enough extra money to spend on these programs? You bet. There was a time, back before a population explosion explosion hit this area, that those questions could have easily been answered. answered. There were, or so it seemed, the same people participating and running running the programs year after year. And when the climate changed and the activities moved from indoors indoors to outdoors, the sâme pèople would follow. Teams Head for Ont. Finals There weren't as many programs offered in those days, but then again, there wasn't the need. Times have changed. Today, having your leisure leisure time filled with recreational recreational activities is considered considered the "in" thing to do. Gone are the days when it was the norm to come home and plop down in front of the T.V. So far gone, in fact, that anyone who does that now is labelled a "couch potato." The Community Services Services Department, along with many hard working volunteers, give people in the Town an alternative to being a "couch potato." They combine their efforts efforts every season to provide provide people in the Town, with the best possible recreational recreational programs anywhere, anywhere, as wellas the best facilities. The Recreation Complex, Complex, the Fitness Centre, Memorial Park, all have something to offer the people of this community. After last week, nobody nobody can tell me that there isn't anything to do in the Town. That excuse just won't cut it anymore.

Kelly It was everything the third and deciding game of a soccer playoff should be. Encf-to-end play, ous scoring cnant loads of action. And, like every deciding game, it was too bad one team had to leave the pitch as the loser. But in the playoffs only one team can advance to the next round. And that team will.be Orono. A goal with less than 10 minutes remaining remaining lifted them to a 3-2 win, and a date in the semifinals semifinals with Tyrone. The. goal was a heart- breaker for Solina who found themselves behind during the entire series.

And in the final game, they fought back from a 2-0 deficit to tie the score mid-way through the second half. But Orono's Mike Cairns delivered the knock-out blow when he mis-kicked a shot that eluded Solina's goalkeeper goalkeeper Tom Langmaid, and found its way into the back of the net. "All I tried to do was get a shot on net," said Cairns, as he described the game winning goal. "I didn't get all of the ball, but it was enough to handcuff the goalie." goalie." Based on the performances performances of both teams in the first half, one would never have guessed that the game would be decided in the later stages. Orono, on goals in the first half by John Satiriadis and Shawn Bailey, looked to be on their way to an easy win. They controlled the first half of play, and when Solina did work the ball in close, goaltender Adam Clarke was unbeatable. Until the second half. Solina came out with a fire in their eyes and took the play to Orono. The constant constant pressure resulted in goals by Kevin Werry and Kevin Wilbur to tie the score. "We just sucked it up and tried to go after them in the second half," explained Solina's Solina's Bud Westlake following the game. "We knew we shouldn't have been behind, there were no excuses. We gave them, two extremely easy goals." "But give them some credit," he continued. "They are a good team, and they've put a lot of work into getting a winning team in Orono." For Westlake, it will be the first time since '63 that ho won't bo involved in the finals. The strong second half Solina had was more a case of what Orono did wrong, ns opposed to what Solina did right, according to Cairns. "Wo came out fiat in the second half," ho began. 'Wo stayed back and played a reserved reserved stylo instead of the aggressive typo of game wo usually play/ The win sots up a semifinal semifinal encounter with l\rono, who received a bye in the first round because of their first place finish in league P in their three encounters during the regular season, Orono won two of the games. "The series with Tyrone is going to be a tough one," predicted Cairns. 'We're really going to have to make them play our game." "It's going to be a good series, series, ana it's hard to say who is going to win.')' League Parity was .evident "ih, the first round of the playoffs, as all three series went to a third and deciding game. The biggest upset was pulled off by Hampton, who eliminated eliminated Bowmanville. In the other other series, Courtice outlasted Salem...The semi finals begin begin tonight with Orono visiting visiting Tyrone, and Courtice in Hampton.

Tykes Advance The tykes advanced to the O.B.A. playdowns with playoff wins over Pickering and Ajax. In both cases, the series went to a third and deciding game. "I knew we had a good team from the beginning of the season," said coach Maurice Maurice Landry who guided his team to a 27-17 record in league and tournament play. "All of the boys had a lot of natural ability." "The majority of the boys did exactly what I had hoped. When they had to put out, they did." In both playoff rounds, the Orioles found themselves themselves in a must-win situation. situation. In the first series against Pickering, they dropped the opening game 14-7, but came back to tie the series in.game two with a 10-6 de-, cision. In the third and deciding game, they found themselves themselves down at one point 7-2, but rallied for a 15-11 victory. victory. In the finals against Ajax, the Orioles dominated the first game and cruised to an easy 16-5 win, only to have Ajax come back and win game two by a narrow 8-7 margin. In the third game, the Orioles Orioles scored four runs late in the game for a 13-9 win, and the right to represent the E.O.B.A. in the All-Ontario tournament. It was the never-say-die spirit of his charges that impressed impressed coach Landry the most. "Our ability to come back really impressed me," he began. began. "Even when we were down, the boys kept swing-, ing the bats and hitting the ball hard." "When we got down you could still see the excitement excitement the boys had on the bench, and you just knew there was something special about them." Bowmanville has drawn the host team from Markham Markham for the opening game on Friday night. Win or lose, Landry is pleased with the season his team has had. "I'm veiy pleased we got this far, especially at this level. All the kids will have to perform well for us to win." Juniors Sweep The juniors took a different different route on their way to the O.B.A. Championships. Coach Kel Bamsey took to heart a line from a famous famous Frank Sinatra song, and did it "his way." As an example, he gave this quote following the teams first win on June 14 against the Port Hope Juveniles: Juveniles: "I'm not worried...I've been telling these guys all along not to worry about the losses." And following a loss on July 12 against Newmarket, Bamsey said, "I'm not worried worried about the losses...We're playing for the playoffs. If we win we win, and if we lose it's no big deal." Do you think it's possible he knew something the rest of us didn't? After stumbling through the season with only four wins, the juniors disposed of Belleville in two straight games in their best of three series. The winner was. guaranteed guaranteed a spot in the All- Ontario tournament in Exeter. Exeter. The juniors travelled to Belleville for the first game of the series and returned home with a 16-2 victory. In game two, Bowman- Kel Bamsey ville rode the arm of pitcher Jason Carroll, who had a nohitter nohitter broken up in the eighth inning, on their way to a 9-1 win. All of Bowman- ville's runs were scored iri their half of the eighth inning. inning. . JV "It was a good series,'" summarized coach Bamsey'-' "The second game could' have gone either way, anddf> they had some relief pitch-1 ing they might have won." "T The juniors' fate in the- tournament may lie in the' hands, or elbow, of Derek Zander. 'Z', as he's known to 1 , his friends, threw out his el-, bow and it wasn't known; whether it would heal in, time for the tournament. "He is probably one of our' better players, and if he can't play we'll have a hard; time winning," predicted) Bamsey. ;;'j "I'll also be looking to Jason Jason Carroll, Rick Suchin.i Scott Munro and Jeff Larid; for some leadership. If those:, four don't go, we don't havej a chance." /, Bamsey hinted that this: tournament may be his last as the manager of the jun-v iors. After 13 years of coach-: ing, the thought of retiring', is playing on his mind. ' 1 . i 'j "I'm going to retire win or< lose," he revealed.
