Hard Core Athletics Independent & Free Press, Wednesday, February 27, 2008 17 OT appeared to have righted the ship in the second game. Trailing 9-7, the Red Devils ran off five straight points and gradually increased their advantage to 19-13. Georgetown, after calling a couple timeouts, slowly began the comeback. The Rebels served up a pair of aces and got kills from Chelsea Jensen, Kodi Veenstra and Lindsay McCabe to build a 24-23 lead. OT power Jenny Pierce made a nice tip on the next point to tie the game 24-24, but subsequently served the ball into the net to give the Rebels the lead once again. After the next few points went back and forth, McCabe ended the match with a smash that barely eluded Pierces diving dig attempt. McCabe attributed Georgetowns comeback to team spir- it. It also marked the fourth time in the past five years that the Rebels have knocked off the Red Devils in the Halton final. We didnt have the same energy in the second game. When we got ourselves pumped up more and cheered after every play, we found they got down more and that gave us a chance to get back, she said. Its such a team sport. When one persons down, everyones down, but if one person gets up, everyone gets up. In the junior match, the Rebels dealt Assumption its first loss of the season 25-16, 16-25, 15-13 in a battle of the undefeated at the Sheridan College gym last Thursday. The two teams were supposed to meet in the last sched- uled regular-season game, but a snowstorm forced its can- cellation. After splitting the first two sets, Assumption led the decider 6-3. Georgetown rallied for five straight points, however, to take the lead for good. Assumption narrowed the gap to 14-13 before Georgetown gained the final point. (Assumption) is absolutely the toughest team weve faced all year, said Georgetown coach Katie Mouriotoulos, in her first year with the team. If I had to mention anyone on our team, it would be captains Tori McCracken and Nicole Bond. Theyve taught me so much. Hockey Georgetowns varsity boys squad needed a victory at home against Lester B. Pearson of Burlington on Tuesday afternoon to advance in the Halton playoffs. The teams tied 2-2 on Thursday to set up the sudden- death second game. Christ the Kings Jaguars were defeated 6-1 at Notre Dame, bringing their playoff run to a close. Blake Seaton had the lone Jaguar marker. In girls play, Acton is the lone Halton Hills team remain- ing in the post-season and the Bearcats face a 7-1-1 White Oaks team today (Wednesday) in Oakville in a quarterfinal matchup. Georgetown was eliminated Thursday after a 6-1 loss to T.A. Blakelock, while Christ the King was edged 4-3 by Loyola. Rebels still have Devils number Continued from pg. 16 Halton Hills Jr. B Bulldogs veteran Brandon Goodfellow was selected in the fourth round of the Major Series Lacrosse draft recently by the Barrie Lakeshores. The draft is composed of five rounds and only those players born in 1986 who have exhausted their junior eligi- bility were able to be selected. The Dogs lefty was acquired from Orangeville Jr. B prior to the 2006 season. He responded by putting up 26 points in 14 games with his new club. This past season was a breakout year for Goodfellow as he was second on the team in scoring with 59 points in the regular season. That also put him in 15th in the East Division scoring race. Goodfellow then pumped in 22 points in 11 playoff games as the Dogs enjoyed their best-ever playoff run. I couldnt be happier for Goodie, said Bulldogs GM Mike Hancock. Hes just a great guy and he deserves a shot to keep playing. Its nice when guys get noticed playing Jr. B and get a chance to advance. It just goes to show, if youre good enough, people will take note. Goodfellow wont be the only former Bulldog in Barrie camp. Matt Lyons was protected by the Lakeshores, who are affiliated with the Orangeville Jr. A Northmen. Also being selected was former Bulldog David Brock. Brock finished the 2006 season with the Halton Hills Jr. B Bulldogs. In 2007, Brock played for the New Westminster Salmonbellies of the B.C. Jr. A Lacrosse League. He was selected in the fifth round by the KW Kodiaks. Goodfellow taken in Major draft
