PPHS senior girls basketball team win consolation The Port Perry High School senior girls basketball team took the consolation champion- ship at the annual Brock High School basketball tournament held on Oct. 5 and 6. After a tough 56-50 loss to highly regarded O'Neill Colle- giate of Oshawa in the opening round, Port Perry rallied with two hard fought victories, a come from behind 34-29 win over Gravenhurst and a 38-33 triumph over Midland. In both victories, the Port girls combined tough man to man pressure with the offence of high scoring Gretchen Cor- nish to take the game from their opponents. Guards Sherri Hvidsten and Andrea Rudy (only in Grade 10) played virtually error-free de- fence and shut down any perim- eter shooting from the opposi- tion. Forwards Linda Crawford, Jodi Konich, and co-captain Sa- rah Douglas all played strong two-way games throughout the tournament. Coach Bryan Davies believes that his team will better the DYSSA finalist placing of the 1990 team, as Port Perry has now run its record to five wins against two losses. By Kelly Lown "Bowling for dollars" was ex- actly what Bev Childs and Gail Smith did recently when they bowled their way to $10,000 in the Pro-Am bowling tourna- ment. Childs, who bowls out of Cen- tennial Lanes in Port Perry, be- longs to the Master Bowlers As- . sociation of Ontario, and Smith, who bowls out of Ajax Bowl, belongs to the Ontario Five Pin Bowlers Association. The team placed second in the Second Annual Pro-Am Tournament that took place on Sept. 28 in Hamilton. The tournament consisted of 70 teams of two bowlers. Each team is made up of one Master and one Amateur bowler. In April, Smith competed against 42 other bowlers and placed first, which qualified her to compete in the Pro-Am tour- nament with Childs. Going into the tournament the couple had 137 (Smith), and 209 (Childs) averages. Going into the final game, the duo were only 10 pins out of first, but at the time did not know they were sitting that well. "I knew we were sitting well, - and knew we were in the mon- ey, but I didn't know we were that close," Childs said. The duo bowled five matches and finished the tournament with a 307 pins over average for the tournament. The top team finished with plus 390. There was $60,000 in cash and prizes up for grabs in the tournament. Childs bowls on Monday nights in Ajax, Wednesdays in Port Perry and Thursdays in ax. She also helps with the Youth Bowling Council at Cen- tennial Lanes. Smith bowls in a Monday night league in Ajax, and is in her first year of bowling. "I never dreamed of win- ning," Smith said. The duo have not decided what they are going to do with the winfall. Each said they are still in shock about winning and will decide what they are going to do with the money once they haveitin their hand.
