On February 4th, Newcastle visited Orono for a return match with our local heroes winning 7-1. A new line put together by the coaches struck for 4 goals as Jamie Shetier (with 2), joined Daryl Reid (2) and Mike Landers (4 assists). Jamie's fast skating and digging in the corners worked well with Daryl and Mike. The other line was weil represented as Henry Kaldeway opened the scoring with the first of Iwo goals and, on, the samne shift, Michael Dreslinski, popped one in. In recent gamres, Michael has shown a good scoring touch as well as being a keen backchecker. Yet once more little Steven Sargent showed his mettie in goals, the only shot to beat himi be- ing a deflection in fr-ont of goal. Rounding out a good all-round performance was Drew Hansen (2 assists), Brandon Meadows (2), Greg Knox (1), Mark Foster (1), teams traded goals with Dustin Reid circling the net and slipping home the puck for Orono. The Fuelers gave it their best shot but were ijust simply no match for En- nismore, who wvere by far the strongest teami Orono hias met alI, year. Although disappointed, the Fuelers did well to be runners-up in a well- organized tournamrent. Jason Hill (2) and Andrew Burton (2). On February 5th the team travelled to Port Hope where they participated in a close, tight checking game that end- ed up 1-1. There was nio scor- ing in the first period although there was many good stops at each end. Michael Dreslinski, playing in goal for the first time this year, looked comifortable as he turnied away shots. Midway through the se- cond period Daryl Reid main- tained his scoring streak as he was set up by Jamiie Shetier and Michael Landers. The boys kept up the pressure and could have added to their lead when the referees called a tripping penalty on a clear penalty shot situation. Finally, Port Hope scored on a long shot that just caught the corner midway through the last period. AUl in all, a good, close, low scoring game that had the parents on penterhooks throughout, and a good warm--up for the big match-up between the two Orono squads on February lth. Tykes 1 versus Tykes II, always a headliner at the local arena and this year's teams have providedthe fans with some barniburners this year in the exhibition season.

My, it wras fun. Well this game was even bet- ter. Tykes Il scored after only 14 seconds, a great start to any game. They went further ahead after 6 minutes and at that point Team 1 decided enough was enough! Mark Foster passed over to Mike Landers who set up Daryl Reid for his first. Despite good pressure applied by I, Teamn Il broke out and widened the score to 3-1 when Brian Good popped his second of the game. Not to be outdone, Team 1 camne right back and Michael Dreslinski scored from Bran- don Meadows and Andrew Burton. One minute later, Il got their fourth to make it - let's see, it's hard to keep up! - 4 to 2! Aaron Staples scored his second in the final minute. Team 1 pulled back again as Daryl scored again from Greg Knox and Jason Hill. This period was as ex- citing a display of hockey as one hias seen-recently, with many fine saves from Chad Maartense and Jamie Shetler (his first gante ever in goal); some great defensive plays (one in partîcular stands out - a Teamn Il player diving to keep the puck in the offensive zone,, so good for such a young. player). And,, of course, lots of nice goals. The tempo and quality of play was way better than we have seen coming out of -,the Toronto Maple Laffs this year.
