PAGE 16, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1981, WHITBY FREE PRESS Saints steal senior's shot at three . Dwyer stop Hawk teams insemi-inal The Paul Dwyer Sain- ts Football teams proved to be bad news for the Henry Street Hawks last week stopp- ing both the junior and senior clubs dead in their tracks during the Lake Ontario Secondary School Association (LOSSA) semi-final matches. The senior Hawks fell just short of the Saints 33 to 28, ending their chances of tucking a third consecutive LOSSA championship title under their belts. The juniors came out on the short end of a 35 to 7 decision. In the senior match up last Tuesday night the Hawks did not relin- quish their lead until the last quarter when Dwyer's Vince Kacaba picked up a team mates fumble on the Hawks eight yard line and ran it into the end zone for the major. The defending champ- ions opened the scoring running the Saints kick off 85 yards for a touch- down. The Saints tur- ned around on the next series of plays and ran the ball into the Hawks end zone. A missed two point conversion and the sc.ore was 7 to 6. The Hawks scored again on their next series extending their lead to 14 to 6 with John Planeta picking up the major. One more touch- down for the Saints and the quarter ended 14 to 12. Quarterback Rob Dobbins ran the ball into the Saints end zone for the only touchdown of the second quarter. The Hawks led 21 to 12 at the half. The Saints struck first in the third quarter narrowing Henry's lead to 21 to 19. Planeta took the ball on a 75 yard run on the next Hawk series finishing off Henry's sècring for the day, giving them a 28 to 19 advantage. Dwyer closed the gap to 28 to 26, scoring on the last play of the third quarter. With the final quarter just past the half way mark Dwyer's defence stopped John Fusco on a fourth and five attempt paving the way for the winning Saint's major. The Saints stayed tough for the remainder of the contest forcing the Hawks to wait until next year for another shot at the title. The junior Saints easily handled the Hawks the following night at the Civic Fields allowing the lone Hawk major in the fourth quarter. WISC looking for swim officials By ANN GOULDING WISC Membership There are ways of being in the swim with- out getting wet. Be a swim official. At a swim meet you will see about 25 people, dressed in white and wearing badges of dif- ferent colors, moving about the deck in a busi- nesslike but calm man- ner. They are the people responsible for the smooth running of an aquatic competition. They act as timers, judges, starters, recor- ders, scorers, announc- ers, marshals, referees and so forth. To qualify as an offi- cial you attend the ap- propriate clinics and acquire on deck exper- ience. Starting at Level One (timer, place judge, marshal) a person may go alll the way to Level Five, master official, and be involved in com- petition at the inter- national, national and provincial champion- ship levels. Or you may restrict your participa- tion to your local club. To get you on your way the Whitby Iroquois Swim Club will be hosting a Level One clinic at Iroquois Pool on Saturday, November 14,- starting at il a.m. The clinie runs for about one and a half hours. Other clubs in the Durham Region are in- vited to send officials to this clinic. Whitby hosts six or seven home meets from October to June. That would be the limit of your participation, unless your choose to go on to bigger things. For further infor- mation call 668-9533 or 668-8097.
