Christ the King's Jaguars are set to make their third appearance in the pro- vincial boys' high school hockey cham- pionships in the past four years later this month in Brampton after defeating the Bishop Ryan Celtics of Hamilton 5-2 Tuesday in the Golden Horseshoe Athletic Conference fi nal at Alcott Arena. Scoring for the Jags were Connor Mortimer, Mike Nicolucci, Mike Wallace, Adam Charalambides and captain Josh Kalbhenn, while netminder Mitch Chris- topher fended off a spirited Bishop Ryan squad that brought about 300 supporters wearing green and white with them. The Hamilton-Wentworth-champion Celtics took six straight minor penalties in the fi rst period after opening the scor- ing with the man advantage four minutes into the contest, allowing Jags to take a 2-1 lead into the fi rst intermission on a pair of power-play markers. "We really fed the puck to the net and took a lot of shots that forced a few re- bounds and we were able to capitalize on those," said Kahlbenn, who had to leave the game in the second period with a sprained wrist, but came back to score into an empty net with a couple of min- utes left in regulation. "(The Celtics) were really chippy and when we found that out, we just didn't do anything when they retaliated and we got chances to score from that." Kalbhenn, a Grade 11 student who likes to park himself in front of the opposition's net and cause havoc, started wearing the C for the Jaguars in the fall following a season-ending injury in the fi rst game by initial captain Teagan Gilian.

This year's 16-team AAA/AAAA event runs from March 19-22 at the Powerade Centre in Brampton. "We've been there before, and when you get to OFSAA it seems like every team is a powerhouse," said Van de Valk. "The nice part is that it's pretty much a tournament at home for us. We won't have to stay in a hotel like the other teams." •T he IFP• H alton H ills, Thursd ay, M arch 7, 2013 15 APRIL 27, 2013 • ERIN • ONTARIO Deadlin e to regis ter - March 29th Bookyour booth NOW - this show sells out FAST! 9TH or pick up a form at the Erin Town office For more information contact Mary at 519-217-1630 or ewcchomeshow@gmail.com This event is proudly sponsored by the East Wellington Chamber of Commerce East Wellington Chamber of Commerce Invites Exhibitors Come out & take the opportunity to promote your business in your community Centre 2000 Arena, 14 Boland Dr. in Erin 10:00am - 4:00pm Registration forms are available online at www.ewcc.caBox Office 519.855.4586 Fridays & Saturdays 8:00pm.

The best-of-7 Ontario Junior Hockey League South West Confer- ence quarterfi nal series was tied 2-2 heading into Wednesday's game fi ve at the Alcott Arena. The third-seeded Raiders jumped out to a 2-0 start in the fi rst period Tuesday, only to give up a goal to the Patriots with 1.5 seconds left in the frame. Sixth-placed Toronto Lakeshore never held the lead in regulation, but managed to overcome 4-2 and 5-3 defi cits in the third period and then Tyler Currie blasted a shot through Raider netminder Keegan Wilson four minutes into extra time while Georgetown's Nick Perruccio was serving a penalty for a dubious goaltender-interference call. Alex Botten, Jacob Bauchman, Perruccio, Anthony Marra and Ty- ler McCarthy tallied for the Raid- ers, who were outshot 40-36. Game six of the series is set for the MasterCard Centre Friday at 8 p.m., with game seven, if necessary, to be played Saturday at the Alcott Arena facing off at 7:30 p.m. Raiders blow two-goal leads in loss to Pats Jaguars headed to OFSAA tourney By EAMONN MAHER Staff Writer Christ the King forward Adam Charalambides screens the Bishop Ryan goaltender on a shot by Jaguars' teammate Brad Ranson (57) that just missed going in during the Golden Horseshoe fi nal Tuesday, won by CtK 5-2.

The 31-year-old right-handed pitcher, who won a gold medal with Canada at the 2011 Pan Am Games in Mexico and started the semifi nal for his country ver- sus Cuba at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Greece, has thrown six innings so far in spring training for his new Major League team, the Detroit Tigers. Hill also threw one inning Tuesday for Team Canada in an exhibition game with the Milwaukee Brewers, giving up one run on two walks. Game time is 2:30 p.m. on Rogers Sportsnet.
