Wrestlers prove they are ready for zones TERRACE SCHOOLS wrest- lets warmed up for the zones with strong performances at - Charles Hays in Prince Rupert, Greg Buck, the boys team ‘leader for the past several -years, proved himself ready for the zones and the provin- ___¢ials with Terrace’s lone win Of the meet. -JP Lebreque was tough again _.. but found one better than him "at the meet, However, Lebre- - que has promised himself the number one spot at the zones. Also having to settle for the second was Ajit Jaswal, the _ first loss of the season and his career, ‘James Bohn fought well . despite a nagging injury and ‘came away with third against _ some very tough competition, - Babal: Sanghera also found ~ himself in a very competitive _ Weight class but handled him- ~ self well in finishing fifth. ‘On the girls side, Michelle Genereaux took second having had to face an. opponent two weight classes higher and who had been selected Outstanding Female wrestler at the BC Age Class championships. ‘Earlicr, Genereaux had defeated teammate Georgina Erickson in a close match to ‘leave Erickson in third. -Rosa Mikaloff and Tanya Daigneault provided the eam. with anather pair of seconds, Mikaloff losing to her Prince Rupert rival for the first time. Daigneault had reason to be pleased with her runner up fin- ish having defeated a BC Age Class second place finisher to. get there. Jamie Striker was again up against stiff competition in a perennial BC champ and her partner and forced to settle for third. And Karyn Audet was lelt to Going to the provin- cials will take money and therefore the team would be grateful for any support it could get remember the one that got away. She opened her tourna- ment against ihe eventual win-. ner and appeared at one point to have won the match on a pin, However, the call didn’t come and Audet was finally pinned herself, She took fourth in the division. The girls finished second in the team standings and eamed high praise in doing so. Coach Dave O’Brien said a highly ranked member of the province’s Officials Associa- tion had been at Hays to con- duct a clinic. Having watched the Terrace girls in action, he declared them one of the best teams in BC and suggested the entire team take a shot at the provin- cials. While that’s unlikely to hap- pen, O’Brien hoped to take half the team down to the Feb. 23-25 championships. However, he added, that will take money and therefore the team would be grateful for any support it could get to make the trip possible. Anyone who wants to help out can contact O’Brien at Skeena Jr. Secondary (635- 9136). Boys coach Joe Murphy anticipated sending three to the provincials as well: Buck, Matt Kerby and Lebreque. Buck and Kerby both made the trip last year and will be looking to improve their plac- ings in their final year of eligibility. Also in his last year of eligibility is Lebreque and, says Murphy, that’s a pity given Lebreque’s strong per- formances and steady im- provement in this, his first sea- son’s wrestling. Arrows hit target this time AFTER SPENDING the past few years watch- ing the trophies and cash leave town, local dart players reversed the trend at the Feb, 3-4 Open tournament here. _ The first hint came Friday evening in the mixed doubles where Terrace’s Mary Bishop ’. teamed up with visitor Noel Noble to beat out _ -Kitimat?s Janine and Paul Dejong for the title. -:-From there, the only interruption to the hometowners’ triumphant march was in the Ladies’ singles where Sue Simpson beat out Verna Potusak, Terrace 5 Coop I-CAL TECHN -CAT.

He's doing everything but his trademark difficult jumps, however he still has a month to get ready and feels there's lots of time. Pat Gillick, architect of the Biue Jays’ back-to-back World Series titles, spant much of the evening in conversation with 11-year-old § Andrew Robb and he wasnit trying te sign him as a replacement player. Andrew Is Easter Seals "Timmy" and before the main course was served he was wearing Gillick's World § Series watch and ring and setting his sights on Cliff Fletcher of the Leafs, hoping he might somehow wrangle an invitation to a hockey game. Lui Passaglia, who kicked the field goal that kept the Grey Cup f in Canada, seems to have no intention of retiring. But at 40 i years old he doesn't spend his winters practising 50-yard boots for B.C. “lL used to kick a lot more than | m do now,” said the man who got one of the loudest ovations of the night. "| like to save the best ones fora game so | take four months off and I'll kick again in April. “The field at the junior high school where | practise is full of potholes so that prepares me for any field | might see in the CFL.” Allison Sydor (pronounced Cy- § door), a world-class mountain bike rider who's training for the s Fan American Games, has so many bikes she fears she soon won't have room to sleep. “My team (sponsored by Volvo} gets me six or seven bikes a year. | could give them away at the end of the season but | get a attached and like little. things . cath eee ee by Jim Hughson about each one so | keep tham.” By the way, a championship mountain bike weighs just 22 pounds. Larry Walker anxiously awaits a settlement in the baseball dispute so he can find a team to play for. Walker is a free agent and the Expos feel he wants too much money so he'll move on. He confides he had one great offer but the Cardinals wanted him to play first base and he wants to stay in the outfield. He was asked a million times if he'd like to play for the Blue Jays but they have a pretty fair right fielder (how does Joe Carter gtab ya?) and besides, he'd rather stay in the National League. There were others swapping stories, too. Isaiah Thomas, Jim Kelly, Lloyd Maseby and former team-mates Ted Lindsay and Gordie Howe, who scored 1,180 goals but, like the others, deserve more attention for an assist they gave kids in need that night. - Give me your Your fractured racquets, Yearning to stillbe worth...
