Pieces put in place for long post-season run Continued from pg. 1 With injuries and school commitments, the Bulldogs have yet to play at full strength at any point this season, but almost everyone could be back for the Akwesasne series. Founders Cup overtime hero Dylan Gilbert has been out for a month with an ankle injury and returned for game three against Markham. Fellow power forward Brendan MacDonald is nearly ready to go after missing the entire regular season with a shoulder problem, while defender Keegan Witton is out for the duration with torn knee ligaments. Norval's Luke Laidlaw has returned to Halton Hills after a season with Brampton Jr. A and averaged more than three points a game playing alongside brothers Seth and Peter. Some good fortune also fell into the team's backyard when former Gloucester Griffin forward Blake Kenny recently moved to Milton and joined the Bulldogs in the off-season, leading the squad with 34 goals and 81 points this year. Veterans Brad Mazzocato and Shawn Stringer were acquired from the Hamilton Bengals late in the season to complement talented prospects such as Connor Sellars, Jordan Dance, Mike MacDonald and Jayson Crawford. In goal, returnees Ryan Kelly and Dustin Hanzelka have provided stability in their second year together as a tandem and McCauley doesn't hesitate to make a switch to try to swing momentum in his team's favour. The Bulldogs now also have a Jr. C entry in the Ontario Lacrosse Association to help develop players for the Jr. B club and after starting the season at 2-3, the Acton-based Jr. Cs reeled off nine straight wins to sit in first place in their division. Should Halton Hills advance past Akwesasne, another classic showdown looms with Clarington, an opponent McCauley's side has faced in the past four post-seasons. The top-ranked 22-1 Green Gaels are taking on the sixth-seeded Newmarket Saints in the other East Conference semifinal matchup after the Saints upset Kahnawake in the first round. The Six Nations Rebels were the last team to win back-to-back Founders Cups in 2007-08 and are the top seed in the OJBLL's West Conference this year with a 19-1 record.

Club Connection Gloria Sinclair Gloria Sinclair, Captain of the Women's Section at The Club at North Halton, first became a member in 1960 when she was just 13-years-old, to play with her friends. She later rejoined as an adult member in 1984 and has been a driving force in women's golf ever since. With a seven handicap, Sinclair holds the club record for championships at 20. This life time of accomplishments all started with just 10 dollars she borrowed from a family friend and golf has continued to be a part of her family ever since. Sinclair remembers the first time she watched her son walk up the first fairway at North Halton on his own. He would later be walking up fairways in the U.S. while going to college on a golf scholarship. She loves golfing with her grandkids and teaching them the rules and etiquette of the game. When asked what she loves about being part of The Club at North Halton's community, she says, "I think one of the biggest benefits are the friends. When you spend four hours on the course with someone it makes it seem like you've known each other for much longer." Sinclair's accomplishments do not just end at her club championships, or with the pride of her family golfing. She has been involved with the Golf Association of Ontario (GAO) and her wins include a Provincial Senior Championship, a Canadian Senior Team Championship and a third place finish at the Women's National Senior Championship. In 2010 Sinclair was awarded with the "Contribution and Achievement Award" by the GAO, recognizing her golf achievements and volunteer contributions in the world of golf. Everyone at The Club at North Halton is proud to count Sinclair as a friend and member! Planning to visit Halton beaches this summer? Check beach water testing results Ærst!
