the colborne citizen rtsisports/sports/sportsisportsisporl Kingston on top in matches In the two return games between the Martin Elect ric Bantam team from Kingston and the Grafton Falcons played in Grafton arena this last weekend, Kingston took both hard fought games. On Saturday night Kings ton took an early lead, with goals by Brent Henry and Alan Scott and from then on it was catch up hockey for Grafton. Top goal tend ing by rookie Danny Moore stopped Kingston from tak ing an insurmountable lead. In the last five minutes of play Grafton got second wind and apart from an odd sortie to the red line, Kingston never got the puck out of their own end. But for the superb goaltending of King ston's Ron Prunster, Graf ton could well have taken this one. Other scores for Kingston a pair by Rick Thompson and a single by Randy Levac. Grafton markers were Owen Turk a pair, Greg Usher and Garth Robins singles. Final score Kingston 5, Grafton 4. Brent Henry again gave Kingston an early lead on Sunday with a dribbler that somehow got by Moore who was hard pressed with some very accurate shoot ing. Then Kingston saw a 3-0 lead disappear when Owen Turk completed a hat trick. Kingston went two goals in front again but Grafton again came back to even the score with goal by Kevin Taylor and Greg Usher. Late in the third period the winning goal for Kingston was put in by Mike Lloyd his second of the game, on a four-man breakaway with only one defender back for Grafton. Other scores for Kingston -Randy Levac a pair, and a single for Brian Ayling. Final score Kingston 6 -Grafton 5.
