wp" 24-- Scugog Citizen -- Tuesday , March 9, 1993 Midget Eagles reach All Ontario final Port Perry Precision Construction Eagles qualified for the OMHA Midget BB championship series by eliminating the Collingwood Legion Vets. Port won three games on the weekend to complete a 4-game sweep in the semi-finals. Friday night, the Eagles travelled to the edge of Georgian Bay for Game 2, and, as they have done in so many playoff games, struck early A beefed-up starting lineup paid off with a goal just 35 seconds after the puck dropped Jason Phillips sent Brad McArthur down the left side, from where he laid a perfect pass into the slot for Steve Desautels to deflect past Rob Ring in the Legion Vets' net.

RIVERBOAT Just over 4 minutes later, Chad Kearns doubled the margin, finishing off a play by tipping a Sean Ellis shot by Ring. Ryan Ridgeway also drew an assist on the goal. Before the period was half over, Port had extended the lead to 3-0. Desautels and Sean McEnaney combined to feed Duane Empringham at the point, and the Eagle captain blasted one past Ring, who was screened by a hard-working Daryl Bourgeois The Eagles didn't respond well to the big lead, as some indifferent and undisciphned play allowed the under manned, phyt game Colling- wood team back into contention. Rick Hutchinson was called on to hold the home team at bay several times, and two second period goals drew the Legion Vets to 3-2 Bourgeois provided an insurance goal late in the second, slipping a bad-angle shot through Ring off a Jeff Card pass. The third was scoreless, allowing the Eagles to leave town with a 4-2 win and a 4-0 edge 1n the point sernes Saturday night, a decent 15 WATER ST., PORT PERRY 985-3281 MARCH LINEUP SPRING BREAK Beach Party SATURDAY, MARCH 13th Wet T-Shirt Contest, Best Male 'Buns' Contest, Lots of Prizes to be Won!

Todd Smart and Jeremy Geer both had a pair of assists Card, Desautels, and Scott Heasman each counted a single helper. The Vets arrived for Game 4 with reinforcements, dressing 14 skaters after having only 10 and 9 in the previous games. The extra legs seemed to help and 1t took Port almost a full period to get on the board Phillips showed the Collingwood defence that being knocked down in front wasn't enough to stop him, backhanding Desautels rebound into the cage while on his knees.
