Prince Rupert annual sanctioned swim meet

by Scott Browes

About 140 swimmers met
at the Prince Rupert
Swimming Pool
Saturday and. Sunday, to
compete in the Prince
Rupert Amateur Swim Club
CASA sanctioned swim
meet.

The teams finished in
order of numbers. Prince
Rupert had the largest team
with 45 athletes - they also
won the meet with 596.5
points.

The Terrace Blueback
swim club pulled second
place with 304.5 points and 40
swimmers. At 230 points the
Kitimat Marlin swim club
put their 29 swimmers to
task and gained 230 points
for third place.

The two remaining teams
in the competition were
Masset Eagles and Tasu who
finished at 131 and 110 points,
respectively.

Referee at the meet Gerry

McManus commented, “It
was Teally good to see the
smail clubs doing such an
excellent job." The clubs he
refers to are Massett and
Tasu.

Still in their adolescent
stage of growth the teams
have placed well in every
regional meet at which they
have competed for the last
few months of the season..
One outstanding swimmer,
Cheryl Bennett, of Massett’s
EavEagles, has placed in the
silver to gold category for
the last two of regional
meets.

In Terrace, not more than
a month ago, Cheryl won a
silver in the 9 and 10 year old
girls, She did the same in
Prince Rupert last weekend.

The Marlins of Kitimat
have been known throughout
the region to be one of the
strongest clubs- the one
others attempt to beat. The
club had only 29 swimmers

‘Petes’
overcame fatigue

- By SCOTT ABBUTT

SUDBURY, Ont. (CP) —A
lot of desire overcame
physical fatigue to carry
Peterborough Petes to a 7-2
conquest of New West-
minster Bruins in Memorial
Cup play Sunday, said Petes
coach Gary Green,

“Our guys weren't full of
desire yesterday,” said
Green, referring to a 5-2 loss
to TroisRivieres Draveuts in
the opening game at Sault
Ste. Marie on Saturday
night, “but they were up

otike Meeker and Bill
Gardner scored two goals
each for the Petes, cham-
pions of the Ontario Major
Junior Hockey League, and
Tim Trimper scored one goal
and assisted on three others
in the convincing victory
over New Westminster,
defending champions from
the Western Canada Hockey
League.

Keith Crowder and Steve
Larmer had Peterborough’s
other goals, while Larry
Melnyk and Doug Derkson
scored for the Bruins, a big
club with the reputation of
being aggressive but whe
were beaten to the puck
consistently,

“] had quite a lot of con-~

fidence coming into this
game today,” Green said.
“The mental attitude was

much better today. The thing
l was most concerned about
was the physical drain.”

But the Petés showed their ~

mettle by coming out and
taking the play away from
the well-rested Bruins,

“Naturally we wanted to

Green, a 25-year-old general
