He played with Mimico of the Metro Junior League last year and was with Richmond Hill of the same league at the start of this year.

Cambareri was expected in the lineup for yesterâ€" day‘s game in Brampton against the Capitals. Blades general manager Murray Walker said Cambareri "has the instinctive ability to go to the net and finish off. He has good hands and a good shot." He said Davey will "beef up the blueline. He likes to go in the corner and he likes to hit." Both need to work on conditioning because they haven‘t played much this year.

"We didn‘t like to make the deciâ€" sion, considering the position (in the standings) we were in but we had no other alternative." The removal of White Oaks proâ€" duced a huge shuffle for the third through sixth playoff positions. Loyola, Blakelock and Queen Elizabeth Eagles all ended up 5â€"4. Bothwell said the problems did not stem from one particular inciâ€" dent but were "a combination of things...It was kind of serious." He wouldn‘t elaborate. The decision comes as a shock because the Wildcats held a 4â€"3 record, including a victory over divisionâ€"leading Bishop Reding. Wildcats coâ€"coach Doug Bothwell felt the decisionâ€"â€" reached by the school administration, physiâ€" cal education heads and coaching staffâ€"â€"was the right one to "maintain the program‘s integrity." As a result, White Oaks forfeited its final two regularâ€"season gamesâ€"â€" Monday against E.C. Drury and Wednesday against Loyolaâ€"â€"and were pulled from the Volpe Division standings. Citing discipline problems and lack of commitment, White Oaks Secondary School has pulled the plug on its senior boys basketball squad.
