The Raiders lost 6-3 to Burlington Cougars, in Burlington last Friday, effectively ending their 1992-93 hockey season. Burlington closed out ae Raiders in three straight games, it the Central Ontario Junior A West Division best-of-five playoff- opening series and did so in con- vincing fashion. The Cougars had posted com- fortable 7-1 and 10-3 victories leading up to the Friday night con- test. Raiders fell behind 2-1 after the first period Friday, but Raiders netminder, Jason Sirota couldn’t be faulted, making 19 saves in the first frame alone for a game total Burlington opened up a 5-2 two period lead and Georgetown never really recovered. Two of the first three Cougar goals came on the power play, putting the Raiders behind the eight-ball early. The teams matched third period goals, but the damage to the Raider cause had already been done in the sandwich period. Trevor Elinesky, Trevor Brandt and Kris Arro scored for the Raiders. Brandt added an assist to go along with his goal, Steve Weisar had a pair of assists, with single assists going to Ante Galic, Tan Ellis and Jake Mashinter.

GFSC ready to unfold dreams By Sally Plackett “Let the Dream Begin” is the name of the Georgetown Figure Skating Club’s 28th carnival. The show is a tribute to Andrew Lloyd Webber’s music and shows. We will be featuring four of his shows; Phantom of the Opera, Cats, Joseph and his Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat and Starlight Express. Phantom of the Opera is a popular love story and has captivated audiences worldwide. The story is of Christine and her mysterious teacher, the Phantom. The masks and the music will be enjoyable for all. Cats of all kinds will also be featured. We will have young cats, old cats, cats of all types and it will show their good times and their bad times, the memories of those growing old and the lively times of the young. Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat has a mystical atmosphere and various musical themes. The narrator tells us the story of Joseph, a gifted child who has the ability to interpret people’s dreams. For this ability, his father presents him with a multi-colored dreamcoat which becomes the envy of his brothers. You will follow the joys and sorrows of Joseph’s life until the realization of his ultimate dream coming true. Starlight Express was done on the stage with rollerskates so makes the show an ideal one for the ice. It tells the story of trains, the old versus the new in a race to be the champion and the power of believing in one’s self will help the champion to succeed. This is a show to let your imagination work and dream.

A short lapse in concentration late in the second period cost the Raiders the game and eliminated them from the OMHA playoffs. For most it was the first time they had ventured this far down the road towards an OMHA championship and the abrupt end to their season left an empty feel- ing after an intense month of com- petition. However, like most tests in life, time tends to heal and reflections bring out the positives. For goalies Andrew Craig and Steve Heinz, defencemen Tim Diardichuk, Andrew Elinesky, Jeff Hewitt and Kevin Lumb, for- wards Parul Agius, David Boere, Marc Boucher, Jamie Briggs, Dave Doole, David Kotsos, Scott Lahey, Gary McNiven, Paul Sandifer and Brad Spears, coaches Dan Curtis and John McGrath, managers Bill Briggs and Bob Craig and sponsor Dan Bodanis, there were lots of positives.

Krista Petty Figure skating milestone Krista Lee Petty of Rockwood has achieved a milestone as a member of the Acton Figure Skating by passing her Gold Freeskate Test. It is believed to be the first time in the Acton Figure Skating Club’s histo- ty that this Gold Medal accomplishment has occurred. Petty, 15, of neigh- boring Rockwood, has been a member of the Acton Figure Skating Club for as long as she has been skating. Currently, Krista trains four days a week in Guelph as well as two days a week in Acton. This past year has definitely been Krista’s best to date. She has completed over 10 C.F.S.A.. (Canadian Figure skating Association) tests, three of which were in the freeskate category. In figure skating, a skafer’s qualifica- tions are related to the number of set tests that are successfully completed. As an extra special award, Krista will be the recipient of the Kim Petty Memorial Trophy which was donated by Krista’s parents, Ken and Carol, in memory of their second daughter. This prestigious award is presented to any Acton skater who achieves the status of Gold Test Skater. Krista becomes the second Petty daughter to receive the award, following her oldest sister Colleen, who is a Gold Dance Medallist. Acton Novices nip Grand Valley By Ellen Piehl was able to kill it off. It was end to end action at the Acton Community Centre on Saturday afternoon as Acton’s novice hockey team defeated Grand Valley 1-0. Acton was pressing hard in the first period to score, but Grand Valley’s strong defence denied them a goal. ‘The second period started out the same way it did in the first. Midway through the period, Acton got a two minute minor, but With less than five minutes to go in the second, Acton’s John Field scored the only goal of the game on the power play. Grand Valley added a lot of pressure in the third period, but Acton prevented them from getting a good shot on net. Near the end of the game, Grand Valley had a clear breakaway, but Acton goal- tender, Chad Greenwood, was able to make a huge save and Acton hung on to capture the victory.
