20- PORT PERRY STAR - Tuesday, August 12, 1997 "Scugog's Community Newspaper of Choice" «woe From Page 19 title wasn't decided until tournament day when Campbell's played Winters. The inning was scoreless so the tie vaulted the Storm into top spot and the league crown. Winter's finished at an impres- sive 10-1-1, Campbell's at 9-2- 1 while both Super Spud Reds and Martyn Consulting fin- ished at two wins and 10 losses. Intermediate Tournament The tournament was a dif- ferent story as Winter's lost their opening game to Super Spud and needed a third game win over Campbell's for a chance at the double win. Campbell's started strong in game one beating Martyns 20- 16. They waited until the open inning when they scored eight runs to take a 17-13 lead into Campbell's last at bat. Winters held the opposition to just three runs and escaped with a one run victory. Craig Asselstine and Lawrence MacDonald led Campbells with a pair of dou- bles each while Stuart Cochrane scored four runs. Stephen Delore headed the Winter's attack with a home run and scored three times while Megan MacArthur con- tributed with three runs as well. This set the stage for the final with Campbells facing Winters in back to back games to determine the 1997 tourna- ment winner. Five runs in the sixth proved to be decisive for Campbells as four RBIs led to the runs. From there the defense held and limited Winters to just one run over the final two innings to take the title by the score of 15-10. Squirts Final Standings Swain Seeds Sluggers - 9-3; Dr. Workman Hawkeyes -6-6; Cummings Backhoe - 5-7; Pineridge Sports -4-8. Dr. Workman Hawkeyes 24 Cummings Backhoe 21 Fast and furious was how the Diggers finished off the regular season. Three up, three down and three out headed by the fine pitching of Brad Figden. The first four innings belonged to the Diggers as Mite call-ups Tim Gibson and Mike Hobbs led the attack with three singles each. Mitch Truax picked up a triple while doubles were hit by Brandon Hoskin and BraPineridge Sports Blues 17 Swain Seeds 13 Pineridge finished off play- ing with only eight players as a grand slam home run by Blake McLaughlin in the bot- tom of the fifth inning proved to be the winning hit. All eight players scored at least once with Chase James and James Hobbs getting three each. Call- ups Cody Rundle and James Hobbs showed their stuff with Rundle collecting three singles while Hobbs played well at first base while contributing with a bases loaded single to tie the game in the fourth inning.

Port hosts Uxbridge Thursday 13-year-old shoots ace at Wolf Run Happy birthda By Chris Hall Port Perry Star A Port Perry teen received a surprise birthday gift on July 15 when he shot a hole-in- one at a Janetville golf course. Trevor Lance, who turned 13 that same day, was playing the seventh hole -- nicknamed "Old Rail" -- at Wolf Run when he teed up at the reds with three friends. ~ Using a seven iron, the teen hit a perfect shot and watched his ball roll on the green and into the cup 115 yards away. "It was fun and I guess it was sort of a lucky shot," said Trevor about the shot he made in only his second round of golf in 1997. While he's played for three years, he admits that he has only golfed maybe a dozen times in his young life. "It was kind of neat to see," he said modestly when asked about the feat that takes many people years to accom- Phin, if at all. 2] The irony of the event, says his mother Vicki, is the timing of the ace. "He made the hole-in- one at around 9:46 that morning and he was actually born 13.years at 9:57 am." ' Also golfing with Trevor, who will be Shtering Grade 8 at Immaculate Conception this fall, was Mark y Ace!! From Page 19 single, two doubles, RBI; Cameron - walk, sin- gle, RBI; Harris - single, double; Herbert - single, McLennan - two singles, RBI; Smart - two singles, RBI; Vander Slagt - single, RBI. Herbert pitched seven innings, striking out nine, walking one, allowing four hits and one earned run. The Port Juniors then proceeded to meet the undefeated Innerkip team and once again, the game was a close and exciting one. Both teams scored in the second inning and in the fifth, with Innerkip leading 2-1. Smart hit an Important triple to tie the game. In the final inning, Innerkip were able to CROSSWORD ANSWERS Cl~H|C|~ Z|O|~|m DIT I> |» omioimim|X|n miXi>»|=~ >IT |=H>|Q]> orice m|<j---|r miO|--~{»|> Z|mi< D|=|m|x mimi» [D(¢0|- mi=|>|D|- DI>|>|0 vl=-|Z|»n Ojr|w|o Ool»|O X|0|> miO|v zim|o m|<|m|z ®|oi>|0|® T A M P A @im{O|m|O wi-|D|i>|v Dic Jim Zimirio = |D|Om DIZ|IDIM{~[ZI>|r Z|>|0|> 2 > Z| |m ®»|O|D Z|>|D|- o|Cl|Z Z|=|r >(=|D>|= oim|r|m |r|» o{m|mim|O --"Zim|=|>|r s|m|im|O J ------ he Poul Perey Say and Rime Derby Winners Summer Fishing | bring a runner across the plate to win the Junior B Provincial Championship. This tournament was the 75th anniversary for the OASA and each player was presented with an impressive crest commem- orating the occasion as Junior B finalists for the province of Ontario. Even though the team was short handed, each player and coach can be congratulat- ed on a great team effort that never gave up and always remained in the game. It was a fun-filled day in spite of the heat, and at the end of the day the players were feeling good about themselves and sat- isfied with the effort they put forth as individuals and as a team. In league play, the team has been getting strong pitching from Venning and Hebert. On Wednesday, Port lost to the excellent men's _ team from Claremont by only one run, and prior to that had a four point 6-0 over the Bramalea Juniors. The only game this week will be on Thursday night when the Uxbridge Senior team visits Port for an 8:30 p.m. start. Over the last 10 days, the team has been working hard on a fundraising pro- gram to help offset expens- es for their trip to Fargo, North Dakota. There will be 104 qualifying teams participating in this World Series starting Aug. 20.
