Port Tweens give fine Provincials performance It has been said that *'close on- ly counts in horse-shoes," but dur- ing the Ontario Provincial AA Championships held last week in Etobicoke, it also counted in Ringette, as the Port Perry Pro- vincial A Tweens came ever so close in all their games, giving them some self-confidence, and making their parents very proud of them. Last week it was reported that the girls were forced by the On- tario Ringette Association, to compete in the AA Champion- ships rather than A, and they were also told that they had played at least two of these teams and beaten them. As it turned out, we had played their A teams and not the AA. On Thursday we met up with those two teams right off the bat. Sudbury, who are expected to be in the medal round, handed us a 7-1 loss with 4 of their goals being on powerplays. Later that day, we met Ottawa and had them 3-0, un- til the roof fell in and it ended 5-3. On Friday we finally saw some sunshine when we started off with Scarborough and tied them 7-7 and then met Kitchener and had a real barn burner which ended 2-0 for Kits. It was 1-0 after 1 period and only went 2-0 with 7 seconds left in the game. The girls narrowly missed several goals, and in a direct quote from the Kits coach, he stated 'I expected we would lose this one in the second period to you guys, you have an excellent team." - Saturday morning saw our on- ly blow-out, which we expected as we met the Gloucester AA team who are expected to win it all. Asst. coach Wayne Fox gave some well needed incentive, as he promised the girls $100.00 each if they won, and coach Lloyd Morden increased that by another $100 each. Some perspiration started to show when it was 1-1 half way through the first period and only 4-1 at the end, with Port girls ringing several off the post and the goalie catching about 4 loose rings right on the goal line. But Gloucester continued their domination and ended it 12-1, with 4 of their goals being scored when we were short-handed. Our final game was against London who had been forced to go "AA" as we were, and had been blown out in every game, 13-1 by o 73 Excerpt#2: The Right to Windows That Are All They're Cracked Up To Be.

OASHWEOR # 7) International Ragrmened Trade of 1200 Phillip Murray Ave. OSHAWA 436-1344 DRC ea pre rare Land Sudbury. Properly attired in baggy boxer shorts, with their nicknames across the rump, they took the ice, hopeful of the first victory. After disrobing in front of numerous fans and spectators, they went at London, but '"OH, OH," London scored first. A serious look came over everyones face, and enough was enough. At the end of the first, it was 4-3 for Port and the game ended 7-3. It should be noted that Kim Pop- pleton, Jennifer Morden, Michelle Fitzpatrick and Shannon Fox worked extra hard on defense throughout the tournament, and got their chances forward during this game. All of the other girls, filled in for them on defense and did a magnificent job. The big story that came out of the tournament was the outstan- ding goaltending of Tracey Pelow. Excluding the Gloucester game, Tracy had an average of 4.8 G.A.A. and probably stopped close to 175 shots from the best Tween sharp-shooters in Ontario. In a direct quote from coach Morden, "Tracy has had the best year of her career and has been the back-bone of our club." Goals and assists during the Championships went as follows: Megan Marlowe 5 goals, 2 assists; Tammy Pillman 1 goals, 2 assists; Karen Kett 1 goal, 3 assists; Amanda Webb 1 goal 2 assists; Shannon Fox 3 goals 2 assists; Jennifer Morden 3 assists; Amy Parliament 1 goal 2 assist, Michelle Fitzpatrick 2 goals 2 assists; Lyndsay Dutkewich 2 goals 2 assists, and Kim Poppleton 3 goals, 6 assists. We would like to extend our con- Complete Hi Tech FIREPLACES gratulations to the girls for some very good games and excellent all-round effort. At this time, we would like to thank our sponsors, Allen Siding Products, for their support throughout the year, and a very generous contribution towards our entry fee for the championship. As well, a very big thank-you goes to the Durham Region Police Association who also helped in a big financial way. Some local businesses also made contributions to the girls and we take our helmets off to Malmont Farms, Port Perry I.G.A., and Bonne Bell Cosmetics, represented locally by David Halligan. Over the past 4 years, the ma- jority of these girls have stuck together through thick and thin. They have supported each other, both on and off the ice and the Town of Port Perry can be very proud of them, as well can Oshawa be proud of Megan Marlowe and Tammy Pillman, who joined our ranks this year, and we thank them. Over 4 years, these girls have reached the All-Ontario Finals 3 times, been Ontario Champions once, won their league twice, won numerous Provincial tourn- maments, and have been in the finals on several more occasions. The coaching staff would like to wish them well in their future ringette endeavours or any other sports activity they choose to take up. As well, a wish for success in life at whatever they may do, and we are certain that these girls will all be successful. FIREPLACES Call: OVER RIDGE RENOVATOR Reach Industrial Park, Unit 4, Reg.

Trailing the best of five se- ries two games to one, Port needed to win in Hespeler that night to force a deciding game back on home ice. In a see-saw match in which the lead changed hands several times, the end came at 5:06 of sudden death overtime when Hespeler's Mike Hack found the range to give his team a 4-3 win and a berth in the all- Ontario final series. This is the third straight season Hespeler Juveniles have advanced to the final round. Port Perry got goals from Gerry Douma and Mark Barkey with a pair. Port Perry had taken a 3-2 lead early in the third period, but Hespeler got the equalizer with just over six minutes to play, setting the stage for over- time. Coach Dave Barkey said later the loss was "very disap- pointing" for the team. He noted that three of the games were decided in OT, and he took a certain measure of sat- isfaction from the fact his club turned in a very credible playoff against a good hockey team, Games so close Game one was somewhat ot an upset as Crandell's squeezed past Norton's 3-2. Counting for Crandell's were Rick Hope 2 goals, John Robert- son 1 goal 1 assist, and Gary Lance 2 assist. Fighting back for Norton's was Henry Forderer from Bill Van Camp and Donovan Smith, and Brian Norton from Terry Rose and Mark Jobb. The second game was a tightly matched affair in which Compton edged out Blanchard's 2-1. Tallying for Compton was Carl Fitzgerald 1 goal, 1 assist and Wayne Fox had the other goal. The lone marker for Blan- chard's was Dan Horner unassisted. Game three was opened up a lit- tle bit as J & D handled Larocque by a score of 4-1. Scoring for J & UD were Dale Bronson 1 goal, 1 assist, Tom Pat- ton, Ron Jeffrey, and Bob Tarbot- ton 1 goal apiece. Assists to George Gladish, Kelly Lee, Joe Curran, Dennis Lycett, Dave Milton, and Bill Bridge. The lone marker for Larocque was Kevin Trapp from Wayne Norton. The fourth game saw Sport- sland double the efforts of Ander- son's by a score of 4-2. Scores for Sportsland were Fred Moffatt 1 goal, 1 assist, Larry Page, Glen Hudson and Dick Martin 1 goal each.
