Win in Overtime This was a hard fought gamne, tiring the Toros some, as they had only 1 hour to rest and were back on the ice for the final game, which was with Unionville. Bowmanville and Unionvil!p were two teams very closely matched, so much so, that at the end of three hard periods the score was 2 to 2. The teams went into over- time. Three minutes 58 secon- ds had been played when Mark Hickey came through, scoring the winner. There was a lot of pressure on the goaltenders in this ganîe, both making many saves for their team, but Todd Balson again came away the winner.

The series of events started last Sunday, March 18 when Joe South signed the game sheet to play for the Engles in this contest. Gananoque play- ed the game which the Eagles won by a 7-6 score, protesting the illegal use of South, a player who played this season with the Queen's University Team at Kingston. Rules state that a player who is playing on a team which is in the running for national championship (which includes Queen's) cannot drop back to a lower level that season. The Gananoque team was aware that Joe was on an Eagle card and were waitîng for the right opportunity to protest. The protest was upheld and the hard-fought-for two points were taken from the Eagles and awarded to the G-Men tying the series. Short-staffed, the Red Eagles travelled to Ganan- oque Tuesday night and as was expected when the b9nib- shell was dropped just, before the game, Eagles proceeded to take a 10-2 shellacking. The teams came back to Bowman- ville for the sixth game, less than 24 hours later and the Gananoque team figured l they had to do was skate out and go home with the Eastern Ontario Championship. But this did not happen because several people were not about to see an innocent mistake take the opportunity for the provincial title away from the Eagles. The series of events which followed could be described as a truly, community sports- minded effort which saw several calîs made back and forth to Florida where Eagle regulars Wayde Preston and Dan Strike were holidaying. With the help of the Walter Frank famîly, Wayde and Dan were homeward bound on a flight from Miami in time for the game. Jim Cryderman met the flight at Malton. Gerald Brunt who attends York University and plays the Engle weekend games also came home. With this three- some~ in the lineup, the other players had a tremendous physical and psychologîcal lift. In the game that night, the Engles tied the series with a 7-4 win. The teains continued the grueling series the next night in Gananoque for the seventh and deci ding game. The G-Men, aided by penalty calîs, had a powerful start in which they almost blew the Eagles into the middle of the nearby St. Lawreance River. The strong goaltending by Stu Roberts and excellent check- ing by the rookie defenceman, Mike Adams, up from the juvenile team, held the G-Men to two goals. Eagles weathered the storm and tied the score after two periods. They then went on to a 6-2 win - probably the first time in history where it took 10 points to win an eight-point series in a Junior C playoff. i The Wednesday night game with a huge, partisan Red Eagle'- rowd in attendance along with several fans from the Port Hope and Cobourg area, saw the G-Men jump into a two-goal lead with their- first goal scored on a power- play effort by George Mangan with assists to. Tim Higgons and Steve Green. The second goal was a rebound off the goal post with Steve Dickson scoring for Daryl Townsend and Steve Emmons. Red Eagles got on the scoreboard when Dan Strîke's point drive was tipped in by John Conboy assisted by Gary Nemisz. Eagles' tying power- play goal came from Jerry- Leddy reaching for the puck after a point shot by Dan Strike, assisting John Conboy who started the play. Conboy's shorthanded goal with 19 seconds lef t in the period was set, up by Dan Strike. Conboy forced Jim Myles in the G-Men net into making the first move and then deposited the puck behind hlm. RXM'ICryderman, lef t un- covered in front of the G-Men net early in the second period popped in another goal for the Eagles. Cryderman took ful advantage of his opportunity. set up by linemates John Conboy and Gary Nemisz for the goal. Rick Scott's low, powerplay drive found the mark assisted by Conboy and Cryderman to take care of the remainder of second period scoring. The two teams ex- changed goals in the third period with Tim Higgons firîng in a loose puck. Eagles' Wayde Preston stickhandled his way through the heavy traffic, scoring while moving across the crease. Assists went to Conboy and Cryder- man, Then the G-Men's power- play clicked agaînst Stu Roberts in the Eagles net. He had a piece of the puck but was unable to hold on with Pat Mangan getting his stick on the loose puck for the score. Ralph Cryderman's power- play goal finished the scoring with assists to Rick Scott and John Conboy. The win for the Eagles tied the series. The teams completed their triple header Thursday in the seventh and deciding game. G-Men jumped into a two-goal lead, scoring at the 47 second mark of the first period with Pat Mangan stealing the puck from Eagle defender. He was assisted b y Steve IDîcon. The second goal came on a powerplay effort, Steve Dick- son from Steve Emmons and Barry Sullivan. Brad, Godfrey started the Red Eagles' counter-attack, scoring on a close-in Jerry Leddy rebound. Godfrey found the opening on the short side for the only first period score from the Eagles. The second period saw the Red Eagles starting to take the play away from the G-Men on the strength of a weIl-bal- anced attack. Don Farrow scored the only second period goal set up perfectly by Wayde Preston. Third period saw the Red Eagles scoring go into high gear. Dan Strike, still with the Florida sand on his feet, moved into the slot set up by John Conboy and Tom Dwyer. The Eagles stalled temporar- ily when Steve Dickson's directed in goal was allowed to stand. The èxperienced Eagles turned a line-change by the PEACOCK LUMBER LTD. Building supplies.

The insurance goal was by John Conboy, left uncovered by the overworked G-Men defence. Conboy was set up by Wayde Preston and Ralph Cryderman. Cryderman's empty net goal finished the G-Men's season. Conboy assisted. The Eagles' performance climax- ed a great team effort. In looking back on the series, the protest by the G-Men probably hurt themn by bringing the Eagles and their fans dloser together as they faced the challenge. The OHA decision was a harsh one which clearly favored one team. Before the Eagles play Gananoque again, they had better get representation through either a conscîentious convenor or a sharp lawyer. irriaay, Marcn 16tn, and couldn't seem to get untrack- ed losing their first game of their last six by an 8 - 3 score. Bowmanville found the of- ficiating somewhat harsh, however couldn't use this for an excuse as they lacked hustle and concentration during the game, pickingup some unnecessary penalties. Uxbridge were flying and couldn't be denied the victory. Ralph Watts, Steve Huisman and Steve, Maguire were the Delta Faucet goal scorers with Kevin Welsh, Scott Chapeil, Jack Bouckley, Steve Maguire and Brian Canfield each earning an assist. Brian Smith and Terry fJoombes shared goaltending duties, for the Bowmanville squad.
