Bowmanville matched Pickering in the early going, going, but an 11-point run at the end of the first quarter gave the visitors a 26-12 lead. Problems securing defensive rebounds rebounds were to blame for the lopsided score in the opening quarter. Much of the same continued continued in the second quarter, as Pickering built a 40-24 half-time lead. 'They have a much •faster team than us, and we had to play a lot of zone defence because of their quickness," summarized summarized coach Johnson. "Skill wise, they weren't a lot better, but they have a big player at every position." "No question we have a lack of experience. We have no starting seniors from last,year. We played well, so I can't complain." The Redmen were ice cold-to start the second half, and were only able to score six points in the entire third quarter. In an attempt to get back into the game, they were forced to fire three point bombs that wouldn't fall. Pickering continued to benefit from their height advantage, especially on the offensive boards. They enjoyed numerous second and third chances on missed shots, and increased increased their lead to 51- 30 to close out the quarter. quarter. Paul Woodlock led the Bowmanville offence with 13 points, while Bryan James was close behind with 12. It was a statistic that Johnson was pleased with, as he singled out three guys who, he hopes, will emerge as leaders on his young team. "Mainly Woodcock, James, and Estabrooke (Adam) could probably play with anybody in the league. They didn't hit their shots today, but they are all good 15 to 20 foot shooters." "We are an outside shooting team, and those three were in double digits digits each game in the preseason. preseason. We tried to set picks along the three point line for them today, but they just weren't hitting." hitting." Pickering made it a clean sweep over Bowmanville Bowmanville in the three games. Their midgets won 47-43 and their junior junior team won by a count of 89-34.

Tim Bydal tried out defence for the first time and was a whirlwind out there. It was a total team effort. On December 1-2 we were in a tournament at Ennismore Ennismore which saw us playing playing three games on Saturday Saturday and one on Sunday. At 10:00 a.m. we faced off against a team from Apsley. Apsley proved to be formidable formidable opponents, and the combination combination of a weeks layoff, a small ice surface in the Warsaw Warsaw arena and the shock of coach Powell's new haircut all contributed to us getting off to a slow start. We found ourselves down 2-0 early in the second period. Our team battled back to tie the score with We scoring from Steve and Nick getting the equalizer from Colin Ga- linski. Late in the second period, period, Apsley scored again Period Period number three produced end-to-end action with many missed chances and lots of hard hitting but neither side was able to find the mark. This was our first loss of the season and our boys were disappointed but not discouraged. It proved to be a character builder and everyone everyone was determined to make a respectable showing for Bowmanville. Game two saw us in the Hastings arena arena at 2:00 p.m. Our opponents opponents were Lakefield who were unfortunate to face a fired up Lange's squad. We scored early and often with the final score reading 6-1. In the first period Jason Bubar notched the first goal with assists from Damien Jay and Nick Katsikis. Then Steve Bonneau struck on a pair from Ryan Brannigan. Period two saw us find the mark twice more with Wes Thompson and Damien Jay each helping the other score. Lakefield scored late in the second period, but Wes from Mick in the third rounded out the scoring. Game three found us back at Warsaw for a 9:00 p.m. meeting with the host team of Ennismore. Our boys were tired and we were down to 10 skaters. Ryan Brannigan was moved back to defence alongside Steve Bonneau and Jason Lawrence Lawrence who we had borrowed from Big E for this tournament tournament was paired with Jason Bubar. Wes Thompson between between Jamie Powell and Tim Bydal and Nick Katsikis Katsikis between Dave Chambers and John Ashton were our forward combinations.-ir-, Our strategy was to build up an early lead as we expected expected the bench strength of Ennismore to take its toll in the later part of the game. The plan worked to perfection perfection and we went into the third period carrying a 4-0 lead. We managed to score one more in the third period while keeping our end clean for goalie Jeff Parry and helping him to a well deserved deserved 5-0 shut-out. 6 Scorers were David Chambers with two and sin- ;les going to Steve Bonneau, "es Thompson and Jason Lawrence. Nick Katsikis had two assists and Tim Bydal Bydal one. Our prayers were answered answered on Sunday as we faced off against Apsley for the 'A' championship. This was a classic match up and some of the unsportsmanlike unsportsmanlike remarks issued by a few Apsley players after our first loss mad our boys even more determined to pull this one off. The game exceeded all expectations. expectations. Lange's scored first with Jason Lawrence getting a pretty goal from Wes Thompson. Apsley fought back to tie the game and period one ended at one all. Period two saw punishing checks thrown by both sides and end-to-end action. Jeff Parry in goals and his counterpart counterpart for Apsley were brilliant. brilliant. No goals were scored and we knew that period three would be a nail bitter. Apsley struck first at the five minute mark but our boys kept coming. With 3:33 remaining in the game, Colin Colin Galinski banked on in from the blueline to tie the score. This set the stage for overtime. At 4:15 of the overtime period a tired Steve Bonneau Bonneau took a pass from Wes Thompson and found the en ergy to blast one by the Apsley Apsley goalie for the victory. For Bowmanville it was a great ending to an exciting weekend of hockey. Congratulations Congratulations team! You gave us our monies worth. We now have a couple of weeks off for a well deserved rest. Our boys can revive their aching muscles, coach Powell can grow his hair back and assistant coach Bubar can get his voice bach. By the way, if we keep winning and the Leafs keep losing, the rumor mill has coach Powell going to Toronto Toronto in exchange for coach Tom Watt and a roll of tape.
