Bantams miss
out on medals

The Peninsula Sidney Pharma-
save Bantam Rep Eagles hockey
team narrowly missed out on the
medals at a recent tournament.

The team played in the Parks-
ville Christmas tournament, and
finished in a three-way tie for
second place with a record of two
wins and two losses.

However, because of a more
unfavorable goals for and against
ratio, the team was out of the
medal hunt.

The team’s most valuable play-
ers in each game were Craig
Pelton, Ben Thornber, Mike
Kaercher and Gary Swanson.

Other players who turned in
strong performances were captain
Steve Postings and center Jason
Milani.

The two losses were against
Abbotsford and Racquet Club,
while the wins came at the

ge cxpense of North Island and a

team from Portland, Ore.
In league play, the Eagles have
two wins and four losses.
