Successful season ends for Panthers If everything had gone accord- ing to plan, the Parkland Panthers senior girls’ basketball team would have cracked the top 10 at the AA provincial championships last weekend. However, a few miscues and missed opportunities put the *& Panthers out of contention early at the B.Cs, held in Prince George. The Panther girls dropped their opening game Thursday 63-46 to Stanley Humphries of Castlegar, the second-ranked AA team in the province. They followed later that day with a crushing 71-70 loss in “overtime to. Lakes District, - «= ~ Parkland rallied for a 47-42 win over Kelowna Friday, but against Robron of Campbell River in the 13th-place game, the Panthers were beaten 51-40. For the second year in a row, coach Marg Metcalfe has taken her team to the B.Cs, and although they placed 14th out of 16 teams, she says the players enjoyed the experience and never let up. “We thought we had a good season and a good tournament. We did play some good basketball at the B.Cs,”’ said Metcalfe. However, a lack of consistency, plus some lapses at crucial times, __ cost the Panthers. In the opening game against Stanley Humphries, Parkland held a 26-23 lead at the half. It was a lead they couldn’t hold. “We just couldn’t keep up the intensity,” said Metcalfe, adding Atom Eagles going 10-for-23 from the foul line didn’t help. Joleen Hook led the Panthers with 18 points, while Genea Grist added 17. The overtime defeat to Lakes District was a good game from the Opening toss. The Panthers were poised to take the game, leading 49-39 after three quarters. But their opponents “switched defences, and we struggled,” said Metcalfe. Lakes District scored 10 unan- swered points to tie the game. From. there it was back and’ forth until the end and into the overtime frame, with Lakes District emerg- ing on top by a mere one point. “We just had that one streak where we lost it a bit,” said Metcalfe. Grist nailed 36 points, while Hook had 24. Both accounted for 60 of Parkland’s 70 points. The Panther girls rebounded with a win against Kelowna. They built an early lead of 10 after the first quarter, which held through the game. Fighting back after two disap- pointing losses the previous day wasn’t a problem, noted Metcalfe. “They kept their spirits up the whole time. They fought hard the whole way,” she said, praising her veteran team. Hook scored 18 and Grist had 14 against Kelowna, while Grist scored 12 and Hook added 11 in end season by taking B side of tourney The Peninsula Payless Atom Rep Eagles hockey team ended their season by winning the B side @>of the Campbell River Atom AAA Hockey Tournament last weekend. Peninsula dropped to the B side of the draw after being bounced in the opening game 9-4 by Clover- dale, the eventual A side winners. The bigger Cloverdale squad overpowered the Eagles with six third-period goals to break open what was a close game to that point, said team manager Glen Campbell. Undaunted, Peninsula came back with two convincing victo- ries to claim the B side gold. The Eagles defeated Parksville 8-3, and in the final soared over Comox Yalley 9-3. 4@ Mark Campbell had 10 goals and four assists in the three games. He was named the all-star center 5 5 ee ee for the tournament. Linemate Blake Munro added one goal and 12 helpers, while Mike Tutty chipped in with four goals and three assists. Reid Wilson was the team’s MVP in game two. He had four goals in the tournament. Goalie Bryce McFadden was the MVP in the final game. Tyson Vancadsand added two goals, each time set up by brother Dagan and Sean Wilson. Jeff Kotyk also contributed three assists, and the defence of Ryan Kennett, Matt Baker, Aaron Wing, Brendan Fletcher and Colin Tul- loch performed well. The tourney ends a very suc- cessful season for the Eagles, due in no small part to the contribu- tions of coaches Murray Kennett and Scott Munro. GLENN WERKMAN photo the final game against Robron. In both these matches, junior players who made the long bus trip with the seniors were liberally substituted into the lineup. Along with Grist and Hook, graduating players are key point guard Jenny Milligan, Jessica Cunningham and Shana Robinson. Reflecting back on the season that was, Metcalfe says she’s proud to have reached the B.C.s with a group she has groomed for a couple of seasons. “We made a couple of our goals, SO it was great.” TheReview Wednesday, March 18, 1992 — A25 S? 82 qo" oe yas! pd de co 2 RO 9 PAN) \°) Nis 3 \\) agi 3: v oP OO OE” ra \ a ce 2) : e sx ot aoe Sal or Ane ae MS gv NE ° Ww © = 10 Pores ot ota AW EMERGENCY NUMBER 655-4459 5-10025 GALARAN RD. 655-1313 3 COURSE DINNERS IN APRIL 95 STARTING AT 9 from our great daily specials plus our regular menu.
