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.” TOOK A BUS

‘hour overnight bus trip here” after the game.

A loss would have almost ended Peterborough’s. chances in the double round- robin affair in which the top two teams advance to the championship game next Saturday at the Sudbury Arena.

But the Petés showed their ~

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

“Naturally we wanted to capitalize early,’ sald Green, a 25-year-old general manager-coach who is a protege of coach Roger Neilson of the National Hockey League's Toronto Maple Leafs.

“We never expected to get that kind of a lead,” Green noted of a 4-0 first-period ad- vantage,
