a Aiea x LAOREET LAAN EY, SON A Pa Jubilation and sadness. It was that kind of an evening at Scugog Arena Sunday as MoJacks finally beat the Lindsay Muskies 10-9 in the second overtime period. MoJack players raise sticks in delight after MoJacks drop second play-off game one of the goals, while Lindsay player looks down in disgust. Next game in this best of five series is Friday night in Lindsay, where a victory would wrap things up for Port Perry. Take close third game from Muskies by John B. McClelland A goal by Phil Cochrane at the 2:46 mark of sudden death overtime gave Port Perry MoJacks a 10-9 victory over Lindsay Muskies and a two game to one lead in their best of five quarter finals. The game Sunday night at the Scugog Arena was the most exciting match the Junior C's have played all year, and had nearly 500 fans sitting on the edge of their seats all evening. Before Cochrane scored the winner from 15 feet in front of the net on a set-up from Bill Bridge and de- fenseman Colin Wackett, the teams had traded two goals each in the 10-minute straight time extra period after the score was dead- locked 7-7 at the end of 60 minutes.

Port Perry won the first game of the series 10-5 on February 3. The game Sunday night was a see-saw affair with the MoJacks unable to keep to a two goal lead they held on several occasions. With the score tied 6-6 and less than a minute left in the third period winger Bill Bridge scored what seemed like the winning goal on passes from Cochrane and Rob Greiner. However, the Muskies pulled goalie Paul Wiltshire for an extra attacker and with just four seconds left Gary Beukeboom scored from a scramble in front of Ray Gibson to send the game into overtime. MoJacks argued furiously, claiming that one of the Lindsay players had skated into the face-off circle before the puck was dropped, but to no avail. In the first 10-minute over- time period, Beukeboom gave the Muskies a lead at the two-minute mark when he tapped in a rebound. Twenty seconds later Phil Cochrane tied it up again, and then with just two minutes left in the first over- time, Darrin Jobb pounced on a stray puck to the side of the Lindsay net and steered it into the open goal. Once again MoJacks seemed to have the victory within their grasp, but with 1:25 left Bill Lockwood netted the tying goal on a rebound after goalie Ray Gibson had stopped a point-blank break- away. That set the stage for sudden death and when Cochrane got the chance he made no mistake. FRIDAY NIGHT The victory will go a long way in boosting the spirits of the MoJacks who played a terrible game Friday night in Lindsay and watched help- lessly as the Muskies scored at will en route to a 14-4 win. In that one Lindsay built a 5-1 lead by the mid-point of the first period, increased it to 9-1 by the end of 20 minutes, and then coasted home. While the Muskies looked very impressive in that one, the MoJacks simply could not do anything right. Ray Gibson in the nets got no help from his team mates, and in the second period Charlie Durward also had the same problems. With the score 3-1 for Lindsay at the 3:50 mark of the first period, Darrin Jobb got tossed from the game for high-sticking on Muskies Tom Lucas. That carried with it a five minute major plus an automatic two- .

They lost their first game but rebounded to win the next two to take home the consolation trophy. In the first game Port Perry ran into a group of sharp-shooters from Mid- land and lost an exciting game 48-44. The Redmen came out blazing in the first quarter and after 1:19 caused the Midland coach to take a time out as Port held a 6-0 lead. When they took an 8-0 lead it. appeared as though the Redmen would win in a cake walk. - Then late in the first period and for all the second, Port Perry seemed to fall into a lapse, and Midland took: full advantage of it. When Port turned the ball over, as they did frequently, Midland almost invariably scored, usually from twenty feet out, when they could not penet- rate the tight Port Perry zone. A basket right at the half time buzzer put the Midland team in front 22-20. One standout for Port Perry in the first half was Scott Wilbur who played a strong defensive game. In the third quarter Midland returned to their outside shooting attack, one of the toughest that Port Perry has had to face this year, but the Redmen seemed to hold it in check. In the last eight minutes Port Perry installed a rarely used defensive maneuver off a man-to-man defence. It worked quite well as they forced turnovers. But when Redmen got the ball back they did not shoot accurately and consequently they lost 48-34. In their next two games Port Perry Redmen showed an awful lot of intestinal fortitude. The games were their third and fourth in the space of twenty four hours and they responded to the challenge in a manner that would have made anyone proud. They defeated the host team Orillia in a 51-47 nail- biter when they needed three free throws in the last twenty two seconds from Rob Morris and Mike Patton. Patton was the team's high scorer with 16 points and Wilbur had 11. Morris and Gord Simmonds each had eight. Cope and Greg Fedyk each had four. Cope and Patton led in rebounds with 13 and six respectively. Fedyk had three steals and Wilbur had three assists to lead in those categories. The consolation final gave Port Perry -a chance to avenge themselves when they whipped the Warblers of GW Williams from Aurora 67-50. Two weeks ago Port Perry had been defeated in a carelessly played exhibition game in Aurora. The game started off at a lightning pace as Port Perry instituted their potent fast break offence early. That was matched by some hot shooting from Williams as Port held a razor thin 14-12 lead after eight minutes. Gord Simmonds and Mike Patton excelled in the middle periods as the momentum swung in the direction of the Redmen. The offence was doing an excellent job. In the last eight minutes Port Perry used the fast break play as well as they have all season. Scott Wilbur was the gunner on the play and he played his part almost flawlessly. = Mike Patton and Greg Fedyk were on the throwing end of it and they too performed it well. Late in the game, with the consolation prize sewn up, Coach Arend Dekker put in reserves Ron Southern and Wade Oosterman who each did fine jobs. For the fourth time in the last five games Captain George Cope had over twenty points as he tossed in 22. Patton had twelve, Fedyk had ten as did Wilbur. Fedyk has been a real bright spot for Port Perry in the last five games and he really deserves it. He is one of the hardest working players on the court. Morris and Simmonds each had six points and Southern rounded "(Turn to Page 22) 'Player of the Week' ATOM House a Ho " io tmnt JIM JACKMAN Homestead Furniture & Appliances Hwy. 7A at the Lake 'Player of the Week' ATOM Select CARL DURHAM Country Variety Mart Port Perry Plaza
