I don‘t want to waste a year of eligibility for you," said Fozo, who has yet to play any games for the 10â€"3 team. The redâ€"shirt idea seems a sure thing. Gilligan, a respected coach at Lamar for 15 years, has told Fozo that he is "his project." Not a bad one, either. Fozo is 6â€"footâ€"3 and 200 pounds and "still growing," his dad, Ron, proudly points out. He hit well over .300 in the Central Ontario Junior Baseball Association last year, clubbing a home run in the allâ€"star game. And then there‘s his arm, which was pretty much wasted at first base where he had played most of his career. His throw from home to second base was timed at 1.86 seconds at a Florida camp in December. Those are Benito Santiago numbers, although, Fozo admits, "in game situations, it all changes."

Red Devils now advance to the Golden Horseshoe Athletic Conference championships, Friday at St. Thomas More in Hamilton. Game time is 4:15 p.m. Their opponentâ€"â€" the Hamilton public or separate championâ€"â€"was not know at press time. In that third game, the Red Devils took a 5â€"2 lead thanks mainly to BC miscues. But the Trojans roared back to take an 11â€"6 lead on OT errors, the towering net play of Dana Cooke and two fine serves by Kim Kirby. OT though didn‘t waver. A good serve by Tara Trbovich, kills by Heather Cole and Julie Vanier, a tip by Emily Patrick cut the BC lead to 11â€"10. Trojans seemed poised for victory when backâ€"toâ€"back kills by Cooke put the score to 14â€"12. But two BC errors and a . winning serve by Kristy Turton put OT ahead 15â€" 14. And then head referee Hal Watson of Oakville called Anne Brisbin for being out of rotation. "There was a frontâ€"row player standing in the back corner," explained Watson. "She was the farthest player from the net. It‘s hard to end a game like that but when it‘s so obvious you have to call it." OT coach Maria Seto would have liked to see the match end in a more conventional matter but it‘s all part of the game. "I wasn‘t really looking for it (violation)," Seto said. "I was more worried about Tara to find a Saturn, and only the coupe and the sedan to buy. Now there are 251 places in North America to shop, with more on the way Iwo years ago there were only 28 place Left to their own devices, they‘ve been known to multiply. C THE OAKVILLE BEAVER "The Family Business That Service Built" (Trbovich) getting the ball over the net on her serve." "I can‘t comment on the accuracy of the call," said a dejected BC coach Doug Lampman. "It‘s an awful way to end the season. These were hardâ€"working kids. "The girls got tougher as the match wore on," Seto said. "We got our serves in, they gave us some free balls and we attacked them. We threw everything at them..." It was a nervous and tight Red Devils squad that took to the floor against Georgetown. In game one, OT made numerous passing and servâ€" ing errors and the mistakes continued in game two. But with the score 9â€"3 Georgetown, the Red Devils got the boost they needed when Brooke Ruschiensky served five straight zingers. Georgetown took a 14â€"11 lead but the Devils reeled off five straight points, two of them on net violations. In game three, Georgetown went ahead 14â€"9 but Ruschiensky produced her serving heroics one more time. Five tough deliveries and two Georgetown errors eave OT the match. "I was thinking they‘d better go over and in," Ruschiensky said. "I was saying to myself they need to count right here (in the second game). If there was ever a time for one, it would be now." "We played well when we had to. We were definiteâ€" ly nervous in that first game...We knew we could do it and we did." "The girls just had to relax and play," said OT coach Kirsten Campbell. "They never lost their confidence." Saturn SW Saturn SC and seven Saturns to choose from, including JUNIOR come on by. As we‘ve always said, the more the merrier. two brand new wagons.
