Raiders avoid upset In trying to keep pace with the front-running Burlington Cougars, the second-place Georgetown Raiders discovered on Saturday that no Ontario Jr. Hockey League opponent can be taken for a granted two points. The 22-7-2 Raiders trailed the basement-dwelling Milton IceHawks 3-1 before the contest was 10 minutes old Saturday evening at the Alcott Arena, but rallied for three second-period markers to pull off a 4-3 victory in front of more than 400 spectators. Alex Lubczuk, Josh Burnell, Tyler Shiplo and Brock Labelle tallied for the home side, which outshot the 4-24-3 IceHawks 3824. Georgetown trailed Burling- SPORTS & LEISURE ton by four points in the race for top spot in the OJHL's West Division heading into the Raiders' visit to Buffalo Monday night to face the Jr. Sabres. Also this week, the Raiders travel to Stouffville Thursday to take on the 16-8-5 Spirit and will host the Jr. Sabres Saturday beginning at 7:30 p.m. The Raiders toughened up their defence corps last week by signing 20-year-old Shayne Salmon, who got into a scrap in his Georgetown debut Saturday. The 6-foot-2, 185-pound Orillia native had three goals and an assist with 88 penalty minutes last year with the now-defunct Couchiching Terriers, playing just a few games with the Alliston Jr. C Hornets this season. 11 Independent & Free Press, Tuesday, December 7, 2010 Egg Nog Jog goes Sunday The 28th edition of the Georgetown Runners' Egg Nog Jog will be run on Sunday, Dec. 12 at the Terra Cotta Conservation Area.

The team consisting of Sharon Babin, Dianne Jackson, Christine Kogon, Kate Switzer and captain Gill More defeated one of the host teams, the Green Witches, to claim the Women's C Singles Team Event title at the largest tournament of the year stateside each year held in Rye, N.Y. On the way to the final, Georgetown prevailed over teams from New York City, Washington, D.C., California, Connecticut and Ottawa/Montreal, compiling a 21-4 won-loss record. "The competition was tough, but we kept the Georgetown flag flying with good wins against all of the teams we played," said More. "The pressure was intense as well, with each of our ladies playing five matches in a period of three days. Our final hurdle was the New York team, who we beat 4-1, and that put the competitive C Division title in our hands." Kogon capped off a banner month for the GRC by capturing the gold medal in the women's 60-64 age group at the Ontario Closed Masters Championships in Vaughan. As well, Christ the King Secondary School teacher Mike Bertin placed second in the men's 50-54 division at the provincials. A women's squash team from Georgetown claimed the Howe Cup U.S. championship after beating competition from across North America at the recent tournament in New York.
