The play was made possible by John Richard- son, who cleared a pass from centre ice to the left wing for Irvine, whose shot resulted in the rebound. The Cents held the lead until 5:57 of the second period when Stayner's Steve Walker received a pass right on the red line and went in on a vo ee breakaway. Walker came in on the left wing, faked a move to the left and then to the middle before he went left again, stuffing the puck inside the post past goalie Jason Murphy. Stayner's winning goal was partly due to the work of Darryl! Verbeek, who forced Midland's Mike Larmand out of the Centennial's slot. With Larmand neutralized, Stayner's Bryan Henerson picked up a pass from Andrew Close, but not this time A close range wrist shot by David Bressette is deflected just in time by Stayner goalie Jeremy Van Severen.

The real killer for Midland came with just 11 seconds left in the se- cond period, with Walker getting his second goal. This was another clear- ing pass which found its way to Blair Inglis at the red line. A short feed pass by Inglis sent Walker in on the right wing. Walker made no mistake, putting the puck over Murphy's glove and into the top corner. In the third period, the When she went to yell to her sweepers, excitement took control and nothing came out. O'Hara bellow- ed from the sidelines and the sweepers took the rock in displacing the Galt rock for a count of two and the Ontario championship. Marg Moore viced for Brett while Nancy Deenen was second stone and Nancy Brett, lead. O'Hara had Dale Walsh at vice, Kathy Peter, se- Cents seldom challenged the Stayner end and when they did, the Siskins showed their superior strength in tying up any Midland players crossing the blue line. The Stayner goalie, Van Alstine, was impressive stopping 32' Midland shots.
