The Bulldogs will be in Bowmanville tonight (Friday) to take on the Green Gaels of Clarington in the opening match of their best-of-5 Ontario Lacrosse Association East Conference semifinal series. Game two is set for Georgetowns Alcott Arena Saturday at 7:30 p.m. Second-place Clarington, 17-3-0 on the season, defeated Barrie 3-1 in their quarterfinal series, while the 15-5-0 Bulldogs are well-rested after taking out Newmarket in three straight games. The Gaels won the only regular season encounter between the two clubs, 11-10 on May 8. The Bulldogs may have caught a bit of a break as one of Claringtons top players, Mark Cockerton, is play- ing for Canada at the under-19 field lacrosse championships and will miss the first two games of the series. Theyre the reigning champs for our conference and no matter who theyve got in there, well have to be at our best to beat them, said Bulldogs coach Blaine McCauley. Although the undefeated Green Gaels swept Halton Hills in last sea- sons East Conference final, all three games were closely contested. It was the farthest that the Halton Hills franchise has progressed in the play- offs. Clarington went on to lose to the eventual Founders Cup champi- on Six Nations Rebels. The 2008 Founders Cup national Jr. B championship tournament will take place in Guelph in late August. vs. OLA Jr. B East Conference best-of-five semifinal series Game 1 Friday, July 11 @ Bowmanville, 8 p.m. Game 2 Saturday, July 12 @ Georgetown, 7:30 p.m. Game 3 Thursday, July 17 @ Bowmanville, 8 p.m. x-Game 4 Saturday, July 19 @ Georgetown, 7:30 p.m. x-Game 5 Monday, July 21 @ Bowmanville, 8 p.m. x-if necessary
