"A Family Tradition for 127 Years" ep RF 2a 2h Bb BE 41 o Toa Bo J PORT PERRY STAR - Tuesday, February 23, 1993 - 33 Fishfull [6 Thinking $9 To the average fisherman the idea of a perfect morning is casting spinnerbaits along the edge of a fresh green lily pad patch, as the hot July sun peeks above the dew stricken trees around them. Blackstock Brewers win first broomball crown in 17 years After going through all 20 games in the regular schedule the final standings were decid- ed this past weekend in the lo- cal broomball league. In the first game of the day B & R Swamp rolled over Emmer- son's Insurance by a total of 6-1. day, March 7 with B & R host: ing Woody's at 4:00 p.m. fol- lowed at 6 p.m. by Blackstock playing host to Monsma. = The 'Merchant Ladies team showed up for their second game of the playoffs short- handed and it showed as they lost 5-0 to the Rookies. This forces a third and decid; game in two weeks time at 2:3 p.m. In the other series the Sun- derland misfits bowed out to Courtice 2 games straight. Dale Lown held the hot broom as he accounted for 8 goals and a single assist. Other goal scor- ers were Mike Mole, Ken Bryant, and Brian Robinson. Assists were picked up by Tim On that same July morning there is a selected group of anglers who's minds are infested with a different vision. For these anglers the thought of aluminum boats and 9 h.p. motors is not enough. They are | driven by the challenge of competing with nature and 298 other anglers with whom they will compete against for the next nine hours. These anglers have made it in the big leagues. They are professional tournament fishermen. Just like professional hockey or baseball Ashbridge, Mike Mitchell, players, they compete in their chosen sport as a living. Something Brian Pomeroy, and Willie Ed- they started for relaxation and enjoyment has now become their full wards with a pair. With B & R winning they forced Blackstock to win, or at least tie their game as the two were now deadlocked atop the standings. With Keith Trem- blay allowing only the one goal there was also the added heat of Blackstock getting a shutout as both teams were duking it out for the Goaltender's award. The Blackstock Brewers and the Framer's Gallery met next displaying their normal type of close game as they have all sea- son with Blackstock emerging on top of a 1-0 score. With this win the Brewers earned top spot in the league for the first time after a 17 year try. Tom Wotten and John Binning earned the assists on Ron Short's goal. Rick McLean earned both the top goaltend- er's award and his ninth shut- out of the season in this one. time job. These anglers pack these high tech bass boats with arms full of rods and various tackle boxes filled with a wide selection of the latest lures. And then it is off to meet up with the rest of the pros, until it is time to race off to their chosen honey holes. The top two tournament circuits in Canada are Bass'n'tario and Pro Bass Association. Just like any professional sport, pro fishing has its rising starts such as Bulk Tytler, the youngest individual to qualify for the pro bass and Bass'n'tario Classic. Others such as Nick Couvis and Herman Ing who are consistently placing in the top 10 and qualifying for Classics. For these young pros, tournament fishing has always been a goal that they have strived for and reached. But they do not deserve all the glory, they had a lot of pros to look up to and learn from. | am sure if you asked any of these young pros they could not have done it without their sponsors. 1 know that | would not be the youngest pro on the circuit without the help of companies such as Shimano, Canreel Lures and Manchester Collision. These are the companies who took a chance with a young guy and should be respected for it. So next time you watch a pro fishing weigh-in show keep an eye out for these future superstars. | have a feeling you will be seeing a lot mare of them in the years to come. : ENN ole - Tol ([ol- Bu OF V (ol A BB a l=) [=F Y= - Broomball ee {final Standings) ste L T GF GA PTS 3 45 .25 B&R Swamp 1 48 20 Woodys 1 43 40 Monsma 4 62 63 Framers 2 33 40 Emmersons 0 22 65 Goaltender's Averages (Regulation Time) TEAM NAME "GP GA.

Our local talent pool has represented our area quite well over the years and in fact the Taylor-Ford Mites All- Star team won our divisional All-Ontario championship in 1991. The 1992 "rep" team also advanced to the provincial championship tournament af- ter a fine season. Choosing players for the mites all-star team is usually a very tough task due to the high level of interest and numbers of aspiring ballplayers but the process itself is usually instruc- tive and rewarding for these young athletes because teach- ing from experienced coaches occurs in all sessions. Parents of all-star players will realize that there is a need for committment to practices, games, and iournaments.

As usual both male and fe- male athletes who are regis- tered with the Port Perry Minor Softball Association, are eligi- ble to try out tor any of the All- Star teams. Likewise, players from any of the Scugog commu- nitiés are encouraged to try out for the teams. Once again this year there will be indoor fastball condition- ing and skill-teaching sessions starting in March for players who intend to formally attend the on-field Mites All-Star tryouts to be held in April. Pre- vious high-level ball experience 18 not necessary for tryouts as "all-around" good athletes who are "coachable" often do well in the "teaching-first" atmosphere of our Mites development pro- gram. Athletes who are interested in perhaps representing Scugog on the Mites Fastball All-Star team and who were born in 1982, 1983, 1984 are invited to indicate their interest by call- ing 985-9860. Prior to the last game it was still undecided who Blackstock and B & R were going to play as Woody's Auctions and Monsma Electric were still battling over third and fourth in the stand- ings with Woody's ahead by two points. By the end of the regula- tion time it was determined that Woody's were to keep third as the teams were tied at 2 apiece. The overtime was all Woody's as they came out on top 8-4 when the dust had cleared. Charlie Dennis scored half the goals with all four coming in the overtime. Jim Gregg, Larry Maarse, Neil Woodrow and Rob Mason added singles each. Bruce Woodrow was the main setup man as he notched five as- sists through the affair, four in the overtime. Gene Woodrow added two more with singles go- ing to Keith Young, Neil Woo- drow, Gord Jones, and Jim Gregg. With Woody's representing Port Perry in the intermediate Tier 1 Division of this upcoming weekend's regional playdowns and Framers in Tier 2, there will be no play in Port.
