At the first 'time out' Port held a one-point lead, 7-6 over Brock. Then Brock picked up three points. The fans encouraged the team on, "Settle down, you can do it", but Port lost 8-15. One com- ment made from a fan was "they'll come back. They like do- ingit the hard way." Stan Zuly made the comment to the Rebels, just before game two; "I like your strategy. Give them the first game so they think they can beat you." In game two Marci started the line-up with accurate serving.

Congratulations to the Brock Bulldogs, a fine team, the silver medal finalists. It was tough competition and the third game could have gone either way. We hope coach Pam Byers is enjoying herself overseas with the Girls Field Hockey Team. In her absence, during the DYS- SAA playoffs, Sophia Brendon did the honors of coaching a splendid team along with the assistance of Ms. Marianne Froehlich. The team's mascot "Cheeky Monkey" a gift given to Sophia by the team attended most of the games. Our young- est spectator at many of the games was Emily Parliament. Many thanks to the Zuly's, Ball's, Parliaments and McCrae's for assisting in driv- ing during the volleyball sea- son. The coaching staff feel Marci Zuly should be recog- nized as the MVP. Congratulations girls, your school is proud of you, along with your fans.
