"Scugog's Community Newspaper of Choice" Port Perry Rebel Shawna Cornish displays fine form while Port Perry Figure Skating &® » going for a lay-up early in match versus Paul Dwyer High School. The Rebels went on to win the game 50-42 last Friday in Port Perry. PPHS girls basketball team wins at tourney It was a busy 24 hours for the P.P.H.S. Senior Rebels, as they played three games in theirown "Austerity Cup" tournament on Friday, followed by a trip to Gravenhurst H.S. on Saturday morning for a doubleheader. In the Friday tournament, the Port girls reigned supreme, with victories over Eastdale Collegiate 53-22, Dwyer Secon- dary 50-42 and Henry Street High School 58-45. The game against Dwyer, 1991 Regional Triple A representative to the Ontario Championships, was particularly intense as the Rebels built an early lead and held on for the win, despite four starters fouling out and in the face of fierce Dwyer pressure in the late stages. Coach Bryan Davies was particularly pleased with both the team spirit and enthusiasm that his players displayed and, in spite of some clear lapses, the greater com- mitment and better under- standing the girls showed with the defensive side of their game. Shawna Cornish set the tem- GOLF SPECIAL! 2 Green Fees (18 holes) 4 1 Power Cart *45°° po of the Port offence, with her sister, Gretchen's, nice shooting touch providing offensive punch. Vanessa Gibson, im- proving with every game this season, played a tough, physical role througtout the tourna- ment. The team that travelled to Gravenhurst on Saturday was composed of four senior girls and juniors Marci Zuly, Julie Ball, Andrea Rudy and Enn Hassal. Port Perry lost a tough 50-48 decision in the first game, but took the second half of the doubleheader 43-38 against the Gravenhurst Senior, with the Cornish sisters again leading all scorers, Grade 12 forwards, Alicia Bentley and Kylie Kearns, repeatedly outfought bigger, stronger opponents for rebounds and juniors Zuly and Ball showed a nice quickness at both ends of the floor. There remains a great deal ahead for the Senior Girls, but the components are now in place for a drive to both the LOSSA and DYSSA titles.

Billyjojimbob honored For trotter Billyjojimbob, the true beginning of his illustrious career all came down to The Breeders Crown. A victory in the 1991 edition of the Crown for horse trotters was an immediate springboard to international fame, instant fortune and unprecedented suc- cess for the owner-trainer team, Lori and Mike Wade and their uniquely named horse. "BJ," a son of Balanced Image overcame the worst post posi- tion and an off track to trot past his ten worthy opponents and break the beam in a track record 1:57.4 for catch-driver Paul MacDonell in the $394,000 event. The homebred was voted the aged trotter of the year in Cana- da, the U.S. and on The Ontario Jockey Club circuit after ending his stellar campaign with 12 wins and a hefty bankroll of $349,052. Named for the closing good- night scene in the hit TV series, "The Waltons," Billyjo has maintained his championship form in 1992, winning 16 of 19 races and $453,449 in purse money. Among the victories were the Horsemen's Series Trot, Sweden's $500,000 Elit- lopp, three legs of the Su Mac Lad Series and numerous Free For All events. The road to stardom hasn't been without its obstacles. On Aug. 8 at Yonkers Raceway, Bil- lyjo choked down, fell and didn't finish in the prestigious Inter- national Trot, in which he was favored to win. : "He's fully recovered," con- hrms trainer Mike Wade, "his wounds were superficial and he's back to his old self." Proofofthat was back to back wins in Mohawk's Free For All Trot on Sept. 19 and 26 as Billy- jo regained his winning form and is now poised for his second Breeders Crown championship. Immaculate Conception Catholic School hosted a soccer tournament at the Scugog Soccer Fields last week. Pictured are the local team taking on a squad from St. Josephs. i A a ili. ec vr ee
