SPORTS The Trenton Golden Hawks are built around a defence-first strategy and the Georgetown Raiders couldn't break through Monday night. A 2-0 triumph for the Hawks gave the hosts a 2-1 series lead in the closely contested best-of-7 Ontario Junior Hockey League championship matchup. Game four of the Buckland Cup final was played Wednesday night at the Alcott Arena and game five is set for Trenton's Duncan Memorial Arena Friday evening. For a game report from Wednesday's contest, visit www.theifp.ca Former Toronto Patriot Mitch Emerson scored on the power play late in the second period Monday and added an empty-netter at 19:58 of the third period for all the offence the Hawks would need. The goaltenders were in the spotlight Coming up The Scotts MLB Pitch Hit & Run Competition is set for Fairgrounds Park in Georgetown on Saturday, April 30 for boys & girls age 7-14. For more info visit www.hhmba Raiders hang tough with Hawks once again, with Trenton's Daniel Urbani earning first-star honours with 29 stops and Georgetown's Andrew Masters making 22 saves to net second-star recognition. The Raiders went 0 for 4 with the man advantage. Attendance in Trenton for game three was listed at 1,092. If a fifth game is required, it will be played Saturday at Georgetown's Alcott Arena. Trenton was missing one of its top defenders as Jordan DaSilva sat out the first of a two-game suspension for a head check on Raider rookie Jack Jacome in game two Saturday, a 3-2 double OT win for Georgetown. Jacome did return to action. In the series opener last Friday, the South/West Conference-champion Raiders took an early 2-0 lead in Trenton, but the North/East Conference-representative Hawks rallied for a 5-4 win.

In the championship game, the Twisters fell behind in the first minute of the contest against the Cambridge Roadrunners, but kept their composure and rallied for a 3-1 victory. North Halton's novice Bs, who were the Lower Lakes League Central Division champions in the regular season, cruised through the preliminary round at the provincials, scoring 15 goals while giving up just one. The weekend before the provincials, the Twisters had picked up silver medals at the Lower Lakes Female Hockey League's Best of the Best tourney. The only other North Halton team to win an OWHA title was the bantam B Twisters in 2003.
