McClelland Port Perry Star The Port Perry MoJacks made it two consecutive home ice wins Sunday night as they clipped the Little Britain Merchants by a 6-4 margin. That's the same score the MoJacks used one week ago in downing the Georgina Ice and the back-to- back wins are the first for the green and white this season. ) The win over the Merchants marked a positive debut for newly appointed assistant coach Neil Evans, who joined the club earlier in the week and will work with head coach Murray Parliament and long time assistant Scott Pinkerton to try and salvage this hockey season by getting the team in the play- offs. The 44-year old Evans comes to the MoJacks after working several seasons as an assistant with the Uxbridge Bruins. "We are very pleased to have Neil join our club," said Mr. Parliament. "He has a great knowledge of the game at this (Junior C) level and relates well to hock- ey players of this age."

Port stayed with this strong team early in the game as Jonathan Brouse decked the defenceman and shot it between the goalie's pads while slid- ing on his knees. Andrew Van Camp scored one of the nicest goals of the year as he did an inside-outside move that lost two Haliburton defenceman at his own blueline then flew down the ice and fired a shot into the top corner.
