i Page 6 The Clarington/Courtice Independent, Bowmanville, Saturday, August 9, 1997 Darlington-Mason Windows 86ers' Rise lo First Place in CSL With 3-0 Victory Over Cobourg The Darlington-Mason Windows 86ers' travelled to Lions Park in Cobourg for a match with the home town Generals. Although the 86ers' would hold a large territorial advantage over Cobourg during the first half, poor finishing and strong defending by Cobourg would see the first half end scoreless. In the second half, the boys played with much more urgency. Numerous changes narrowly missed or crashed off of the goal frame. Finally, with eight minutes remaining, Devon Potter lept over the fallen Generals keeper to score the opening goal. Moments later a hard-charging Jeff Bouma saw his efforts rewarded for the second Darlington goal. A long looping shot by Ryan Fowler from the left wing side line finished the scoring scoring for the 3-0 victory. This win along with the surprising 2-1 win by Whitby over North York Azzuri has allowed Darlington to slip into first place in C.S.L. action. Outstanding performances were seen on defence by Justin Andrews and Scott Rietze who turned in strong games both defensively and on the counter attack, definitely made a difference difference in the results. The Mason Windows 86ers' would again like to thank Eric Kemp who filled in for vacationing players and turned in a strong performance. This week, the boys travelled to Peterborough where they would meet the Peterborough Lions II. This game proved to be one of our strongest and most successful team efforts of the season, with Darlington showing excellent pace and control from start to finish. Each player produced a better performance over their previous match, the 86ers' would earn a one sided 9-0 win. Mason Windows were led by Ryan Fowler and Brandon Kane with two goals each, while Adam Hobb, Derek Van Heuvelen, Trevor Delpippo, Brad Griffin and Scott Rietze each added singles. This match showed the potential that this team really has and what will be necessary to hold off second and third placed Pickering and North York in the race for the C.S.L. title.
