Mul.é'Is Doiphins head into provincials on a hot streak Have enjoyed league and tournament success this spring If late-season momentumn is the measuring stick for succesa, Victoria Mulé's Etobicoke Doiphins must be feeling pretty good about their chances at the provincial championships in Brampton. The 14-year-old Miltonian and hier 'AA' bantain girls hockey tearn go into this weekend's showcase on quite a roll - having enjoyed a hefty hardware haul already this spning. The Doîphins' latest title triumph came at Toronto's Beatrice Ice Gardens Sunday afiemoon, when they disposed of the North York Storm 3-1 to clinch the North Metro crown. in an even more thrilling encounter Saturday, Etobicoke squeezed past the Burlington Barracudas 3-2 t0 reach the charn- pionship finals. Before that, the eventual league champs gutsed out a best-of-three qualifying victory over the Durhain Lightning - overcoming an early series deficit to advance. Mulé - a fast-skasmng forward with lots of play-making ability - made the winning deposit in a 3-0 game-two whitewash and sank an insurance marker ini a 5-1 series- clinching win. The Doîphins have also flour- ished in tournament play - most recently striking; silver at the 35th annual Brampton showcase. Their penchant for coming out ahead in low-sconing affairs - cer- tainly an encouragmng sign heading rnto the provincials - was once agamn seen with narrow victonies over Aurora (2-1), Michigan (3-1) and Chathamn (3-0). This round-robin sweep put them in the semnifinals, where they blanked Durham 2-0. Unfortunately, Etobicoke would end up on the opposite end of the shutout gaine duning championship play - getting stoned by London 4-0. This weekend's trip to the provincials was made possible by a best-of-three qualifying series win over North York ini late February. Eleven teains will compete for the Ontario titie. /Localfoursome lead Twisters The Halton Hila 'BB' aton girls hockey teai have ing and were rock solid in both gantes laat weekend. secured hardware at juat about every turn this season, Before that the local girls' collective efforts pow- thanka in large part to a local foursome. ered Halton Hilas to championship honours ai the 35th Katie Blasco, Ksta Dermott, Brooke Hartwick and annuil Bramipton Canadattea Tournament.
