the cardinals will be venturing to the land of the big nickle after sweeping its bestofthree york region athletic association final wednesday with a 73 win over the host st andrews college saints with the score knotted at 22 after one period the cardinals jumped out to a 42 lead through two and never looked back keying the cardinals win was the line of tony rossi mike stollar and nick west which were in on six of the seven goals rossi had three goals and four assists while stollar delivered three goals west earned six assists jesse boucher added the other marker cardinals head coach dave turner acknowledged the rossi stollar and west line was the key to the game tony rossi was unbelivable he stole pucks and stollar outmuscled people in front of the net andwest was in on every goal that line scored turner also felt his clubs ability to adjust was critical to the final outcome they st andrews are a strong forechecking team we had out defence carrying the puck up the middle and thats hard for kids to do from a psychological standpoint turner also felt the outcome of the first game might have been a little too much for st andrews to overcome even though they outplayed the cardinals and could easily have won the game were it not for a disputed goal that didnt count st andrews definitely outplayed us in the first game turner conceded but i think it was a letdown for them to lose that game i thought we had control of the whole game even through the first period which was close we always had the lead in that period though in looking ahead at the ontario federation of school athletic association championships which will be held in sudbury from march 2224 turner expects his club which lost just one game all season long should get a favourable seeding we should be in the top three id be disappointed if we werent one two or three but were going up there to have some fun wolves ranked 10th in volleyball the unionville high school wolves senior girls volley ball team

wolves ended up in a tie with eventual goldmedalist mayfield secondary school obrampton and bronze medal ists waterdown for first but were relegated to the consola tion round on a tiebreaking procedure terry wollenzien wolves coach noted that canadian volleyball association rules were used in which a points ratio was utilized despite defeating waterdown 20 in its pool play match the wolves ended up on the short end the ofsaa reps are talking of changing this rule next year they realize it needs to be changed said wollenzien ill definitely be putting a motion forward to my ofsaa rep she added finishing the year 10th overall in the province wollenzien was happy with the way her charges performed in their ofsaa debut sure they were disappointed after the first day at ofsaa but putting things into perspective it was an excit ing year and rewarding only two per cent of all high school athletes make it to the provincials and finishing 10th is a big deal wollenzien is looking forward to next season as she notes that her team loses just one player to graduation knights bow out in two the milliken mills knights senior boys basketball team made a quick appearance at the ofsaa
