Mavs sharp Midgets are back e from OPENER on page 20 net for about three quarters of the night and surrendered juat two goals. Milton came out firing on ail cylinders - mounting 6-0 and 10-1 period leads on the way to one--of their biggest blowout wins of the season. Leading the attack was graduating veter- an Jimmy Leworthy Jr. The 21-year-old began bis Iast week of junior lacrosse in commanding fashion - scoring five times and adding a nifty bit of physicality along the way. Remarked Wednesday's MVIP, "I'm not sure that I put an extra challenge to myseif tonight. 1 was just excited to be playing in thse Founder's Cup. I woke up really early today thinking about it." Leworthy Jr. admits; he expected a little more fight fromt the British Columbia team. Nonetheless, hie was impressed with bis own club's showing - especially aliter being off for three weeks. "Everylhing went great. We made some line changes, which I think was a good ides. They were getting stale," hie said. Any tire lthe Islanders came packing was doused within tIse first few minutes and entirely extinguished by intermission. i ternis of mobîlity and overall offen- sive skills, they were thoroughly out- classed by tIse hosts - who didn't giVe up a goal until 12:08 of the second period, shortly after Dowdell took a two minute minor for illegal equipment. Rookie Mike DeBoer, a fan favounite in round one of national play, came in briefiy and made two quick saves during this mid- evening discrepancy over Dowdell's shoulder padis. He would eventually close thinga out between the pipes - stopping five of six shots in the final 11:48. Cory Leigh stood rail with thre goals and three assista and captain Andrew Harthoît delivered a spirited performance as well, setting up three tallies and sinking one Isimself. Other singles were recorded by Graham Darling, Ryan Felix, Chris Powless and Bryan Reid. Replying for Delta were Alex Fink, Rob Johnson and Greg Rennie - who was clearly their top gunner, but effectively neutralized by Craig Hedley and Matt Jackson. In other opening round action, the Edmonton Minera upset tIse Green Gaels 10-9 before being beat 16-13 by the Elora Mohawks. Milton continued round-robin play past deadlîne yesterday with games againat Edmonton and the Green Gaels. Tonight they battle Elora at 8 p.m. Semifinal games will be held at 1l a.m. and 3 p.m. Saturday wîth the winners squaring off for the national title Sunday at 2 p.m. A bronze medal gamne will be played three hours earlier. The Red Sox are back in the saddle again. Milton's Lions Club mitiget basebaîl team stumbled brietly through the rail end of regular season play, but broke ii shaky stretch and ended thinga with a 9-3 trounicing of dise Oakville A's last week. Ali the elements of their gamne were back in tiptop shape. as they struck early and often to dominate the entire evening conteat and capped a season sweep of their regional rivais. Kevin Cooper clelivered a standout performance on the bih - striking out 10 batters and surrendering juat three bits and no runs over four inninga of relief. Starter Paul Duff and Michael Volpe - who came in to close - were effective as well, giving up only a pair of bits each. Offensively, Milton enjoyed a well balanced attack with pro- duction coming from up and down the order. Leading the way was Reese Davies. He went 3-for-5 and amassed a handful of RBI. Other multi-hit efforts were offered by Volpe, Jeff MacLeod, Nathsan Perrott and Mark Antonelli - who snapped a mini slump with a double, two singles and three runs scored. The Red Sox couldn't have picked a better fimie to regain somne momentum, with provincial qualifying action set to begin tonight ini Oakville. Tbey'll take on Erindale and Martin Grove in the double knockout tournamrent, with tic winner advancing to thse Ontario "A" Championshipa Labour Day Weekend in Sanît Ste. Marie. "We've smoked Martin Grove aIl year and beaten Esindale two of three times," said manager Larry Black. "Unless we really fail spart, we should go on to Sault Ste. Marie." Thse teain currently sits at 22-13 overaîl this season, wbich includes a final regular season standing of 12-7 - that was good enough for fourth place in thse Central Ontario Basebaîl wishes to announce his retirement from medical practice at 69 Main St. E., Suite #1, Milton as of August 27, 1999.
