two other goals while Humber got a pair and three assists followed by Lewis with three assists Previous to Saturday s game Burlington was unbeaten this season a fact which t lost on coach Gary McFadyen I m very pleased with the way the guys played in both games against two very good teams I think the whole team feels great about it it gives them and the management confidence we know we can play with anybody this league and we showed it Helping increase their con was the ability of their big line to come through again in their second game Catherwood scored the first goal assisted by Humber and Lewis to get the team going Humber assisted on the second goal when he set up Matt To add to the team s good for tune one of the team s key players Rob looked to be fully recovered from the shoulder surgery he underwent last year scoring the game win neratll of the final period He was feeling pretty good out there After scor ing he was trying to do some end to end rushes said Solid goaltending was also on the menu for the Raiders with Jason Nicholson getting the nod for both matches He stopped 23 shots Brampton and kept the door closed on Burlington which Georgetown 3525 Nicholson really steadies things up for us in our end he knows what to do with the puck The defence has been working really well together lately said McFadyen The coach added that he was also happy with the way the team has developed and the different strengths they have demonstrated On Thursday they showed they can put out a lot of offence and on Saturday they showed they could play a strong control ed defensive game We could have gone to start off putting us in a really big hole but things look different now Rebel football seniors still winless GDHS Rebel senior volleyball player John

Herald photo By ROBERT RISK Herald Sports Editor The Georgetown District High School Rebels senior football team is still searching for its first win of the season after losing to Burlington Central on Friday afternoon Coach Rick Redshaw said weather played a part in limiting some aspects of his team play though he put all the blame on Mother Nature With the pouring ram that day it was really tough to make our passing game work We had a lot of trouble getting into their end zone but we definitely had some chances Three times we got inside their ten yard line but couldn t score Those three attempts were stopped by an interception on the first drive a fumble on the next and the team was unable to make a short first down attempt on the last Though he said some of his backs had trouble getting their footing in the field receiver Rich made the best of a bad by catching two pisses for good field tioneith lime I encouraged way we contained their offence which isn easy since thej a minor program which helps develop them earlier than our players They re a good hitting team which is tough to run against That s we re working on our ground attack a bit more now said The senior girls basketball team lost their second game in a row on Thursday due to a decision dealt to them by the by Bishop Reding hosts The seniors had dropped their last the previous da at home to E Drury and weren t able to overcome the point differential put on the board by Reding this week They stayed ahead of us the whole time They got up by points at one time but our team fought back playing a lot better in the second half but we couldn get closer than five points said Gary Southworlh the senior coach The team played their most re cent tournament this post weekend in Port Credit losing two of their three games We saw a lot of good teams there this weekend In our first game we lost to Chatham Kent on and our first game on Saturday we lost Southworlh the team faired a lot better against
