\ \, \ N DONNY | N\ Photos of champs and finalists wanted Minor hockey needs help to complete Wall of Fame By Kelly Lown Port Perry Star Port Perry Minor Hockey wants everyone who enters Scu- gog Arena to be able to relive all the glory days of local teams by viewing the Wall of Fame. Over the years Scugog Town- ship hockey teams have won 39 Ontario Minor Hockey Associa- tion Championship or Finalist banners, which hangin a promi- nent place at the arena. The goal of the Port Perry Mi- nor Hockey Corporation is to have a team photo to correspond with each of these banners. The Wall of Fame, which is lo- cated on the wall behind the seating area, has several photos placed on the wall by the Arena Board. In October 1992, minor hock- ey president Grant Laird made a proposal to the minor hockey board, which was accepted, to have the organization expand the wall. The banners date back more than 30 years from the 1959-60 season when the local Merchant Juveniles won the champion- ship up to the 1991-92 Midget champions and Juvenile final- ists. Of the 39 championships teams, Port Perry Minor Hock- ey currently has six correspond- ing photos. The organization has been supplied with photos of the 1959-60 Juvenile champs, the 1970-71 Cy Wilson Midget champs, the 1980-81 Stone Re- alty Peewee champs, the 1986- 87 Malmont Farms Atom champs, the 1989-90 Pearce Novice champs and the 1990-91 Canadian Tire Midget finalists. There are still 33 remaining banners that minor hockey needs a photo to go along with. If you were a member of one of these teams who brought home a pennant years ago, or know someone who was, dig out your scrapbook and share the photo with the rest of the community.

Guardian Tweens win silver medals The Guardian Drug Tween As ventured to North Bay to test their skills against teams from other regions in the prov- ince Jan. 22-24. In their last tournament, in Port Perry, the team earned the gold and were looking forward to the competi- bion they would see this week- end. The first game in this five team division was against the highly touted team from Nepe- an. The Nepean supporters not knowing where Port Perry is, must have wondered what hit them. The opposition was first to hit the score sheet just three minutes into this fast paced match. Port not to be outdone evened the game on the next shift when Janine Hammond finished off a lead pass from Janna Senyk. The pace spiralled upward as the teams went end-to-end with scoring chances for both teams. Standout goal tending by Katie Senyk inspired the team. Be- fore the end of the first period Shona Moase put Port ahead on a pass from Dana Hooker. At this point our girls seemed to gain the upper hand and took the game away from Nepean.. No more scoring took place until half way through the final peri- od when Janine moved the ring out of her end to Cara Vander Slagt in the centre ice area who found Laura Hooker and there was some breathing room. Heather Tredway moved the team further ahead when she finished off a three way passing play started by Brooke Shanley and centred by Natasha Bur- gess. After a line change Janna again started the play in her. own end moving it up to Laura and on it went to Janine who rounded out the scoring.

The Doors had complete con- trol of the game from start to finish and played the best game of hockey to date. Every man played flawlessly and a total team effort made for a very en- Joyable game for the home town fans. The first period saw Ux- bridge's goalie facing a barrage of shots from all angles but he was more determined to stop the Doors after two humilating games allowing 19 goals. The period ended 0-0, but Uxbridge was no threat. The second period saw Puck- rin set up Derek Tindall who scored the first goal of the game and 33 seconds later, Dave Gai- ney popped in their second goal on a fine set up by Skerrat and Tindall. Shane Savage made three excellent saves but was not tested often by a frustrated bunch of Uxbridge boys. Period three began with the home team even stronger with Puckrin again feeding the puck to Jeremy Gibson who made no mistake firing the puck high for Port's third goal. Uxbridge answered back with just five minutes left in the Turnto Page 35 PORT PERRY: STARS Tudsdiiy Fob] 1053 - 9B KELLY LOWN/PORT PERRY STAR The Knights of Columbus International Free Throw Com- petition for local schools was held at Immaculate Concep- tion Catholic School on January 28.
