Big Brothers of Newcastle 623-6646 If You Can't Beat Him Then Get Him on Side The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, Wednesday, October 16,1991 9 M.J. Hobbs Teams Place Second in Soccer Finals by Brad Kelly Last year he dashed any hopes the Bowmanville Eagles Eagles had of winning the Central Central Ontario Jr. C tide. This year, he is hoping to make it up to them. Kelly Chalykoff, in a round-about way, was the player responsible for bringing bringing the 1990-91 season to an end for the Eagles. It was the seventh and deciding deciding game of the - league championship scries between Bowmanville and Uxbridge. A loose puck lay in front of Eagles' goalie, Chris Massey, just past the midway point of the first period. Chalykoff scooped up the puck and directed directed a shot towards the goal. It found its way past Massey. Massey. And ultimately, it stood up as the series-clinching goal in a game that ended 1- 0. When he walked through the dressing room doors of the Eagles for his first exhibition exhibition game against Port Perry, he would have accepted some of the kidding players from last year's team may have given him. He was prepared for it, but it never materialized. materialized. "I didn't really feel uncomfortable. uncomfortable. They (the players) accepted me real well. They were great," said Chalykoff after last Thursday's Thursday's practice. "They were making fun of the goal, saying it was offside. offside. But I don't think it was offside," he said with a smile. Just prior to the goal, the puck came out to the Eagles blucline, and was thought to have come outside before being being shot back in. The goal was argued, but the call was never changed. Who would have known at the time that the goal would ultimately decide the series? The 16-year-old grade 11 student at Paul Dwyer High School in Oshawa, began this season in the camp of the Lindsay Jr. B's. He then trav- The Bowmanville Eagles have signed the playet who scored the goal that eliminated them from the playoffs last year. Kelly Chalykoff, who played for Uxbridge last year, is expected to give the Eagles some much-needed speed on the forward lines. died back to Oshawa lor a try-out with the Legionnaires, where he remained in camp for three weeks before being released. Although he accepted his return to Jr. C, he wasn't expecting expecting the reply he got from Uxbridge when he called about returning to them. They didn't have room for him. "I was looking forward to going back and having a good year -- a better year than last year -- and improving," improving," he said. "Things just,, didn't work out that way, so I called Bowmanville." ' The speedy forward will help to bolster the Eagles' scoring attack, and his speed will likely be utilized killing penalties. But any plans coach Mike Noonan had for Chalykoff will have to wait. A slight shoulder separation in the first period of the Eagles' first league game will keep him out of the lineup indefinitely. indefinitely. Ironically, the game was against his old club, the Uxbridge Uxbridge Bruins. His role with the Eagles hasn't been discussed yet, but with a year of experience under under his belt, he knows what the Eagles will be expecting of him. "I'm a veteran, so I know what I've got to do: score a lot of goals and make the pretty plays. I just have to be there for the team at crunch time." Crunch time is something he is used to after his experience experience with Uxbridge. They were an intimidating club that used their size to dominate along the boards and in front of their own net. The formula was perfect for the team that manager Chuck Phillips had assembled. With the Eagles, there are significant differences in the make-up of the team. But that won't detract from the success success of the team, says Chalykoff. Chalykoff. "We've got a couple of , big guys, but mostly we're medium size," he began. "Uxbridge last year was real big and strong and we had to muscle our way through, ... "This teqskwW'be pretty good. We haVt^tB' mold together. together.

Meanwhile, the McRobbie sharpshooters managed to score twice.

He sent us a report recently on his current current status at the school. Things in the sunny south have taken a turn for the better. However, I still want a chain saw to cut through all of the red tape. Those scissors are worn out! I flew here August 7, as per schedule, and immediately went to my grandparents' trailer trailer park and remained there ün- dcf-cover. It's a seniors' park, so technically, I was staying there illegally. I went to the school to settle all of my requirements and things went smoothly. So, I be- First Win for McRobbie McRobbie Photo peewees relied on strong forechecking and a stalwart defensive game to record their first win. Both teams started off playing playing a tight defensive game. Midway through the first period, period, Adam Millar opened up the scoring with an unassisted shot from the point. The second period saw no scoring as the goaltenders at ei ther end played well. Going into the third period with a one-goal lead, McRobbie McRobbie had to step up their defensive defensive strategy. Assurance came when Darryl Fclstead scored in a goalmouth scramble, assisted by Craig Schumaker and Randy Auld. Congratulations to Jesse Anger and Robbie Dennis on a fine shutout performance. Knox Christian School Captures Harrier Championship g an looking for a place to stay. Sound easy? HA! The college doesn't provide housing. I eventually became roommates roommates with a couple of other students. The process was quite difficult, difficult, though. With my not being being 18, I could not sign any documents. None of us had any credit or rental history. We were turned down at three complexes before we found a place. We didn't get to move in until after the first week, of school. I'll always remember going to every first class for each subject and having to tell the prof, that I couldn't give them my address or phone number because I didn't have one. Then, one of my teachers said, "Oh, you're one of the homeless." A week after school started, I got a note in class to go see the registrar. It's deportation time. I had some more paperwork paperwork and now it is settled. I have a new F-l student visa. The baseball team was quickly informed that St. Pe- tersburgh Junior College has pride in their baseball program. They placed all of last year's graduating ball players with a new school on scholarship or a pro contract. Priorities are: 1. School 2. Attitude 3. Baseball. Coach Davis is very hard on people, but if you can play for him, you can play for anyone. Soon after practices started, we learned about Coach Davis' conditioning program. Pitchers, Pitchers, catchers, and scholarship players jog Monday and Wednesday at 6:00 a.m. All of the rest of us jog Tuesday and Thursday. ■ Friday is awards day. If, for any reason, you get on the coaches' bad side, you run sev- r en miles Friday at 6:00 a.m. as an award. That is one award I intend on not earning. Wc started with 90 ball players and arc at a fall schedule schedule of 50, and I am one of those. Wc practised for about three weeks, and then three teams were selected. One team is comprised of all scholarship players, while the other two arc made up of walk-ons. I'll play in 26 inter-squad games. Final cuts for the team are December 13, So far, I'm hitting .333 with four stolen bases. J. E. QUANTRILL CHEVROLET - OLDSMOBILE - CADILLAC LTD.
