Falcons stay on top The Georgetown Falcons, with a 3 and 0 record played host to Bolton, also with a 3 and 0 record, last Friday night at Alcott. The outcome as expected was a close score but the score did not reflect the play as the Falcons outlasted the visitors for a 3-2 victory to keep their win record intact and ike sole ‘Sosition for the lead in the Peel Halton League. Joe Clare has been playing superior, soccer in recent, games this nig] at the same time as he was a thorn on the side of the opposition players. Joe was involved i 1 three Falcons goals as the home side coasted to a 3-0 lead before faltering and allowing the Bolton team to get back into the game. Joe Bilick, who usually gets only _ Spot playing time was allowed to “start this game and he quickly grabbed his opportunity to show his worth. He and Clare soon began to exploit the Bolton weakness down the right flank and after about 15 minutes Bilik sped down the wing and placed a perfect cross for clare to meet and finish off with perfect timing to give Georgetown the lead. Inspired perhaps by Clare’s play, and then Spiller each com- aa brilliantly with Clare as first Oram scored followed quickly by Spiller. Bolton hardly knew what hit them as they found themselves three goals down after only 35 minutes, but they managed to get one back shortly before half time with a really strange goal. The ball, from a weak shot was off target, was about to cross the line for a goalkick when the Falcons keeper, George Tzimas, dived tor ecover the ball only to watch helplessly as it bounced off his forearm over his shoulder into the path of an oncoming Bolton fore Aleaying.by him an empty net in which to scot The tet half was a different game as the Bolton squad began to push more and more players for- ward and put some pressure on the Falcons defence. The Georgetown back four however, were ready for throw at them. Led by some out- standing play from Tim Racinsky and Tim Davis and ably supported by the hardworking duo of Jay Anderson and Dan Gallagher, the Bolton attack was continually stopped by clever offside traps. The few players that beat the offside trap were then frustrated by the ex- ceptional play of the Falcons keeper who held out until the last five minutes before conceding a well taken goal after some good play by the visitors. The Falcons defence had by this time lost both Anderson and Gallagher to injury and who was there alongside the versatile Derek Oram helping to stem the Bolton tide?? Why Joe Clare of course, finishing the game as he had started it. On top form!!! Met moves to town Continued from Page 14 he knew I played cricket and it’s similar to baseball,’ said Lawrence, moved to Mississauga when he was nine. ““My cricket background did help because of the hand-eye co- ordination needed to hit a ball in cricket is much the same in baseball: Lawrence went on to play for Brantford of the Major Inter- County league before helping On- tario’s baseball team capture the gold medal at the 1981 Canada Games. It was there that he caught the eye of the Mets and signed a free-agent contract. Lawrence credits Ron Cabot with his baseball success. Ironical- ly, Cabot is also a major-league scout, holding that position with the Toronto Blue Jays. “We spent a lot of time working Out together because I had never played until I was 14?’ he said. “That just goes to show it’s never too late?” More and more Canadians have made it to the majors recently, and Lawrence figures, with the right coaching, more can follow. “T think the Americans get a lit- tle bit better coaching and tend to play the game at an earlier age’’ Lawrence said. “But I also feel that a lot of Canadians, athletically speaking, have the ability to play major-league baseball?” The Falcons next meet Chingy at Victoria Park on July 6th at 8:30 p.m.!!
