Doug Rickard started on the mound for the Lakers and was relieved by John Robinson at the end of the sixth inning. The big guns for Whitby were Bob Artner, Dave Sorietti, Greg Macisaac, Tom Spaxman and Jim Scherer. The standouts for the Lakers were John Robinson, Jeff Fox and Allan Farrow the Laker catcher.

The story of the game again was the Oriole defence or lack of defence as Peterborough scored ten runs on only five hits, This reporter takes off his hat to Chris Moffat as he lasted four innings of very sloppy defence. The Cowan Pontiac defensive defensive star of the game goes to John Mutton. Due to a recent lack of save opportunities, Doug Ritchie brought his stopper in to give him some work and John struck out three in three innings and picked two baserunners off of third. Mutton proved to the Peterborough batters that you can't hit what you can't see. Honourable mention goes to Chris Michelson as he played an outstanding first base.

Girls travelling travelling to Pickering for another encounter with their soccer club, this time against the Cosmos. Unfortunately, all we came back with was wet feet (again!) as Graham's was outscored 4-0. The first three goals were primarily the result of defensive defensive lapses on the part of the girls as they were unable to keep the ball out of our end of the field. They were also the result of some interesting interpretations of the offside rule by the referee. (I have some sympathy for the way the Soviets felt after their loss to Belgium in the second round of the World Cup!) Graham's play tightened up considerably in the second half with Christina Thrasher moving into goal and doing a superb job, limiting the Cosmos Cosmos to only 1 goal! Offensively, the girls were continually frustrated by the strong clearing kicks of the Pickering ■ midfielders and defense: They prevented Graham's from keeping sustained sustained pressure on the Cosmos. Cosmos. Despite this, Jessica Hull and Kim Bates did make several good rushes. With this loss. Graham's head into their next home contest against Whitby oil Wednesday, June 18, with an 0-1-2 record. Good luck in this game, girls!
