10 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanvillc, Wednesday, May 20,1992 Sports Update Banquet Concludes Successful Season for Golden Age Bowlers Marchment Named as Newest Eagles Coach by Brad Kelly The country club atmosphere that has surrounded the Bowmanvillc Bowmanvillc Eagles dressing room the past couple of seasons will no longer exist exist with the hiring of Wayne Marchment Marchment as the team's new head coach. Describing himself as a "no nonsense" coach, Marchment was introduced last Tuesday as the team's newest head coach, succeeding succeeding Mike Noonan who resigned at the conclusion of last year after two seasons behind the bench. A replacement for assistant coach Paul Reed, who also left the club, has not yet been named. There were a couple of prominent prominent factors that entered into manager manager Mike Laing's decision to hire Marchment. His track record as a coach and his reputation of being a disciplinarian were the keys, said Laing. "He's got great experience and he also comes from a good hockey family," said Laing. Marchmcnt's father, John, has been associated with a number of teams. And, yes, his brother is Bryan, the rugged defenceman defenceman of the Chicago Black Hawks. . "At the Junior C level, the kids need discipline and when we sat down and talked, he felt that way also," continued Laing. ; "His philosophies on the game are right down my alley. He demands demands commitment on the ice and in the dressing room. Once he's in the arena, he's the boss and that's what we (the Eagles) needed." • Marchment has spent the last two seasons as the coach of the Lakefield Chiefs. Prior to that, he coached a bantam team in Lake- field, and the Young Nationals minor minor midget team. I, His decision to leave Lakefield •was based primarily on travel. The trip from his home in Courticc to the Lakefield arena twice a week was exhausting. "This is a great place for me to coach," said Marchment, 28, of his upcoming season in Bowmanvillc. "It's a great hockey town. They (the Eagles) get a good following and I like that." Marchment suffered through a dismal season with a young Lake-. field team this past season. The club finished last overall with only five wins in 34 games, and were eliminated in the first round of the playoffs by the eventual league champions from Port Perry. The strain of a losing season evident evident on his face as he began to recall recall the past year. returning as one of the team's over- agers, whom Marchment views as one of the league's best all-around players. Dennis, who played in only 24 games during the regular season after after coming off knee surgery, emerged as the team's leader both on the ice and in the dressing room. He tallied 19 goals and added 26 assists to finish third in team scoring. scoring. Help, in terms of players, will be on the way from Cobourg, who have jumped to the Junior B ranks for next season; Bowmanvillc have affiliated with the Cougars, and also have a working arrangement with the Oshawa Legionaires.

"I pulled the goalie 10 times in Lakefield last year," he said in reference reference to the number of close games his team was in. "I just couldn't get a win and it just became became harder. I'll miss coaching up there, though." Two seasons ago, in his first year behind the bench with Lake- field, he inherited a team that had only six wins the previous season. He guided them to a 19-17 finish, good enough for fourth place. This season may also prove to be a long for Marchment, as the Eagles Eagles will lose as many as 10 players from last year's roster. He will have the advantage of Nick Dennis from his players as being the key to winning in the league, Marchment sees his job as more than just putting putting wins on the board. "I'm there to teach and work hard. I would never ask them to do anything I wouldn't do and I expect them to respond to that. "It's not just hockey. I want to teach them about life. Winning is important, but I want to make these hockey players young men." Last year, the Eagles finished third in the overall standings. After eliminating Cobourg in five games in the quarter-finals, Bowmanvillc fell to Little Britain in the semifinals semifinals in six games. First Section Tuesdays by Lou Dewell Dewell Men.
