ennui mm in Wig max mamas coauan Statistics Favor Newmarket Squad Sports editorChris Aylott has been on vacation the ast couple of weeks and it hasgiven me chance to save closer look at the local sports scene Before that though its only fair to mention that Toronto Argonauts looked like champions all the way in their 2213 victory over Calgary Stampeders Wednesday ht mg ve never seen the Argos look better Their de fence was excellent and their attack Just as Impressive Perhaps determination and spirit are two of the most overworked words in sport but they best describe the Argos Wednesday night THEY FACED difficult assignment Calgary is leading the Western Conference and had lost only one previous game before running into the heppedup Argos Toronto on the other handhad four straight losses and as usual theyre fighting for playoff 0t Quarterback Wally Gabler executed many fine plays and probably the bi reason for this IS that coach Leo Cahill had Tom Wi nson ready to direct the club Matter of fact Wilkinson saw action for about 10 min utes in the second uarter and when Gabler came back he was great Not ing like aliitlc pressure to bring out the best in person Now on the local scene NEWMARKET and Lakeview Dairy rained out last night are scheduled to meet tonight in the sixth game of their bestofscven Barrie Fastball League final ser ies After losing the first two games Newmarket bounced back to take the next three Newmarket has more batting depth and when you combine this with the pitching talents of Dale Pegg and Gerry Case it would have to be considered an up set if Lakeview wins the next two games although dont count them out Over theregular season Newmarket had three bat ters over the 300 mark including pitcher Pegg who also won the batting championship wrth 328 over age They had seven players between 211 and 289 With the exception oftWo players the batting aver ages of Lakeview look more like the weight of each player Corby Adams was the only 300 hitter at 316 Gary Hines bad 291 average and believe it or not not one other member of the team got over the 200 mark Seven Lakeview players were between 125 and 150 This also might surprise you pitcher Don Dykstra with 150 average over the schedule was the fifth best batter on the club HOWEVER when playoffs roll around you throw out the statistics Anything can and usually does happen And to illustrate thispoint consider the fact that batting champion Pegg hasnt managed one lut in the five playoff games And how about the collapse of Camp Borden Flyers in the Barrie Intermediate Fastball League Barrie Coop took the title with three straight Wins in thersemifinals and breezed through Flyers in four straight games in the finals Flyers set the pace all season of they ing ace Guy Sonny and their top batter Larry Harker before the playoffs started This was the main reason for their poor perforrnancevin the finals DONT MEAN to underrate Barrie coop Pitcher TerryHodgson was superb and he received fine stip ort from his mates Even with Soucy and Harker glyers would have been only an even money bet to beat Coop Congratulations to coach Al Smith and his Coop team They fielded fine squad and deserve every hit of glory they receive Now its time to look ahead to the hockey season Barrie Arena could be packed Sept 27 when Los Angeles Kings and St Louis
