It-was a game in which Bowmanville won 10-0 and, at the time, thought they had , advanced to the semi-finals against Markham. But Barrie filed a protest with the OMHA, claiming that Bowmanville coach Bob Luxton shouldn't have been behind the bench of his team for the seventh game. The protest stems from an ejection that Luxton received during game five of the best- of-seven series. At the time, it was thought the ejection carried a one-game suspension which he served in game six of the series. But the OMHA has ruled that because of the number of penalty minutes accumulated by Bowmanville in that game, a two-game suspension should have been served. Bowmanville has appealed the ruling, and were still awaiting further word as of Monday night. "I've always adhered to the rules, and I wouldn't do anything to jeopardize the team," said manager Don Luxton, who was still baffled by the OMHA decision. Once the decision was rendered on Friday evening, Bowmanville immediately filed an was poised for another run at an Ontario championship. Needless to say, none of the players was too happy when informed of the OMHA ruling prior to a practice on Sunday night. were all disappointed and upset," said Luxton. If the decision by the OMHA isn't overturned,. Bowmanville will return to their league playoffs to compete for the York-Simcoe championship. said Luxton of the original ruling.
