On Friday night, sixth-seeded Toronto Lakeshore led 3-0 early in the second period on a goal by local resident and OJHL Second Team All-Star Alex D'Oliveira, going on to a 5-1 win to even the series. Nathan Feric had a hat trick for the Pats, with rookie defender Santino Centorame getting third-place Georgetown's lone goal.

CtK's boys, who lost just once during the regular season, defeated Oakville's Holy Trinity Titans 5-2 on Thursday at the Sixteen Mile Sports Complex to capture the Halton title. After taking the fi rst two penalties of the contest, CtK settled down and took advantage of an undisciplined Holy Trinity side, with Daryl Hanzel- ka scoring twice and Mike Nicolucci adding another in building a 3-0 lead through the fi rst period. "We have a pretty talented group but sometimes they think they can just get by on talent," said CtK head coach Scott Van de Valk. "Our discipline was the differ- ence today. We told them, 'Take some abuse, keep your feet moving and you will put yourself in good position to win.'" Hanzelka ended up with a hat trick on the afternoon, with Nicolucci notching three assists. Brad Ranson also tallied and defender Connor Mor- timer collected two helpers. A 1-0 loss to Burlington's Assump- tion in last year's HSSAA fi nal disrupt- ed the Jaguars' recent dynasty. In girls' action, Christ the King was edged out in the Halton Tier I semi- fi nals last week by Corpus Christi of Burlington with a 3-2 defeat in Oakville.
