Blazers dumped 7- 2<br />
Peewee tourney slated<br />
Don't count Quesnel out of race<br />
Early predictions are calling<br />
Fort St. John as the team<br />
to beat in the fourth <strong>an</strong>nual<br />
Quesnel Minor Hockey association<br />
peewee house tournament,<br />
but don't count the two<br />
Quesnel representatives out<br />
of the running either.<br />
The Fort St. John peewees<br />
will be the defending champions<br />
when they play in the six<br />
team, round-robin event slated<br />
for March 29 <strong>an</strong>d 30.<br />
Quesnel will have two<br />
teams representing the city in<br />
the event, boys selected from<br />
the QMHA peewee house<br />
league. The two teams, Weldwood<br />
<strong>an</strong>d Keis Trucking will<br />
join the squads from V<strong>an</strong>derhoof,<br />
Williams Lake <strong>an</strong>d 100<br />
Mile House, as well as the<br />
defending Fort St. John entry.<br />
Wayne Broussear will be<br />
coaching the Weldwood team<br />
with Don Gook as m<strong>an</strong>ager.<br />
Al Scholpp will be the assist<strong>an</strong>t<br />
coach to Darryl McCaw,<br />
head pilot for Keis Trucking.<br />
Len Doerksen is the m<strong>an</strong>ager<br />
of the club.<br />
Local businesses have donated<br />
trophies, medals <strong>an</strong>d<br />
various other supports to the<br />
event.<br />
The teams from Quesnel<br />
were selected from lists of<br />
four definite players <strong>an</strong>d four<br />
alternate players drawn up by<br />
the house league coaches. The<br />
boys were invited to try out<br />
for the house rep teams <strong>an</strong>d<br />
through the process of elimination,<br />
the coaches formulated<br />
their rosters.<br />
Weldwood has a few skaters<br />
who could be expected to<br />
turn in good perform<strong>an</strong>ces.<br />
Kyle Lorentson, Rodney<br />
Dallm<strong>an</strong>, Rob Clarke <strong>an</strong>d<br />
George Bell are all players<br />
Brousseau will be counting on<br />
to help out.<br />
Rene Gagnon, Rob Kolody,<br />
Kevin Mulloch <strong>an</strong>d Kevin<br />
Moore are players in the Keis<br />
lineup that McCaw <strong>an</strong>d<br />
Scholpp should be expecting<br />
solid perform<strong>an</strong>ces from.<br />
Harold Sw<strong>an</strong>son is the<br />
co-ordinator of the tournament,<br />
with Carl Kolody as his<br />
assist<strong>an</strong>t. Glen Delwisch will<br />
be this year's referee-in-chief.<br />
Mr. <strong>an</strong>d Mrs. Ed Mulloch are<br />
in charge of arr<strong>an</strong>ging billets<br />
for the out-of-town players.<br />
If players remember -the<br />
end of a season better th<strong>an</strong><br />
the first part, it would be safe<br />
to say the 100 Mile House<br />
Blazers will , associate fourpoint<br />
games <strong>an</strong>d the name<br />
Greg Moore.<br />
For the second time in as<br />
m<strong>an</strong>y encounters with the<br />
Blazers, the Quesnel Millionaires<br />
left winger has accumulated<br />
four points in a single<br />
,.; game.<br />
Moore scored three goals<br />
Wednesday <strong>an</strong>d assisted on<br />
one other to pace the Mil-<br />
' lionaires to a 7-2 win over the<br />
visiting Blazers before a sparse<br />
hometown crowd.<br />
1<br />
Bry<strong>an</strong> Dumaine, Kevin<br />
Lust, Mike Enemark <strong>an</strong>d Rich<br />
Odiorne all scored singles to<br />
round out the 'Millionaires<br />
goal-getting.<br />
Greg Aiken <strong>an</strong>d Albert<br />
Anthony replied for the Bla-<br />
' zers. •<br />
The meager crowd of fewer<br />
th<strong>an</strong> 100 people saw the<br />
Millionaires open up a threegoal<br />
'alead after the first 20<br />
minutes of play. ' ,<br />
Moore scored first with a<br />
powerplay goal at 4:33 of the<br />
premier st<strong>an</strong>za. Between that<br />
time <strong>an</strong>d the second goal of<br />
the game, a backh<strong>an</strong>der off<br />
thestick of Dumaine, the play<br />
of both clubs le<strong>an</strong>ed to the<br />
ragged side.<br />
Quesnel's third goal was<br />
scored by Lust when he slid<br />
the puck into the net under<br />
Blazers' goaltender John Gar- '_<br />

Brigade smokes<br />
snow competition<br />
Nine teams took part in the<br />
snowball tournament held in<br />
Wells last weekend with the<br />
Wells Volunteer Fire Brigade<br />
Smoke Eaters burning up the<br />
competition <strong>an</strong>d emerging as<br />
the top squad.<br />
Their toughest opposition<br />
came from the Likely-Hydraulic<br />
Lifters who ousted the<br />
Wells Gogetters, who finished<br />
fourth, <strong>an</strong>d the third place<br />
Cottonwood Wool Socks on<br />
their way to the finals.<br />
Snowball is really soft ball in<br />
the snow. The game is played<br />
with regulation slow pitch<br />
rules, but alterations have<br />
been made.<br />
For example, teams field a<br />
total of 13 players instead of<br />
the regular nine <strong>an</strong>d five of<br />
those must be of the opposite<br />
sex. The batting order is<br />
double its normal length,<br />
being 18 rather th<strong>an</strong> the usual<br />
nine.<br />
The use of "exotic equipment's<br />
permitted <strong>an</strong>d this<br />
includes everything but<br />
snowmobiles. A number of<br />
this year's competitiors made<br />
use of snowshoes while others<br />
employed fish nets <strong>an</strong>d a<br />
variety of other non-softball<br />
equipment.<br />
The org<strong>an</strong>izers of the <strong>an</strong>nual<br />
event were pleased with the<br />
tournament turnout, although<br />
a conflict of scheduling with<br />
the Mardi Gras in Prince<br />
George resulted in two teams<br />
dropping out of the competition.<br />

The Millionaires were held;<br />
scoreless in the second period<br />
while Aiken beat Quesnel<br />
netminder Ken Heppner with<br />
a rifle blast from the point,<br />
about mid-way through the<br />
frame for 100 Mile House's<br />
J<br />
first goal of the game.<br />
Quesnel had the pressure<br />
on Garcia in the third period<br />
wh en a rebound bounced high.<br />
Pounding on it <strong>an</strong>d batting<br />
the puck into the net, Moore<br />
had his second goal of the<br />
night.<br />
Just 21 seconds later Enemark's<br />
unassisted tally made<br />
it 4-1 for the Millionaires.<br />
Tempers beg<strong>an</strong> to flare along<br />
with the frustrations of the<br />
players during the third period,<br />
but the only outbreak was<br />
a scuffle between the Millionaires<br />

House Blazers' Darryl C<strong>an</strong>ning.<br />
•<br />
Anthony made no mistake<br />
when he forced the Quesnel<br />
defense to cough up, the puck<br />
<strong>an</strong>d set up a breakaway. The<br />
Blazers* player showed a lot of<br />
authority when he cruised in<br />
,". on Heppner <strong>an</strong>d blasted the<br />
puck into the mesh for his<br />
team's second notcher.<br />
Before the game's play was<br />
completed, Odiorne scored on<br />
a set-up from Ron Halvorsen<br />
<strong>an</strong>d Lust at 17:02 <strong>an</strong>d Moore<br />
finished off the scoring for the<br />
winners at 18:26.<br />
Blazers' coach Terry Moore<br />
labours under no false im-<br />
pressions about his team <strong>an</strong>d<br />
their abilities, but he still<br />
expresses cautious optimism.<br />
""We're weak, no doubt<br />
about that," Moore said, "but<br />
we do reasonably well for the<br />
talent we've got."<br />
Moore admitted the administration<br />
was hoping the club<br />
would be stronger this year<br />
th<strong>an</strong> it is, but cited injuries to<br />
players <strong>an</strong>d a iess-th<strong>an</strong>-perfect<br />
affiliation with Merritt<br />
for players as two of the<br />
reasons why the Blazers have<br />
turned into the PCJHL's<br />
weak sister.<br />
Their hopes for improvement,<br />
however, will not necessarily<br />
come from recruited<br />
players. The administration is<br />
hoping for local midgets to fill<br />
in some of the bl<strong>an</strong>k spaces<br />
this year's club has had.<br />
'We've got a good midget<br />
club this year in 100 Mile <strong>an</strong>d<br />
the peewees are strong too, so<br />

should do okay," Moore said.<br />
The Blazers' pilot felt his<br />
team did not perform poorly<br />
against the Millionaires in<br />
their 7-2 loss.<br />
"If we'd had some better<br />
breaks in the first <strong>an</strong>d second<br />
period around the net," Moore<br />
concluded, "it might have<br />
been different, who knows."<br />
Quesnel's coach, Wayne Inglis,<br />
was not overly impressed<br />
with the game.<br />
„"It was just a typical 100<br />
Mile-Quesnel game," Inglis<br />
commented, "<strong>an</strong>d I didn't<br />
think it was that interesting a<br />
game to watch."<br />
Inglis did say that he<br />
thought Garcia played well for<br />
the Blazers in net.<br />
"It's not just 100 Mile,"<br />
Inglis explained, "it's just that<br />
not everyone was ready to<br />
play. It was just one of those<br />
games."<br />
While the Millionaires are<br />
playing through one of their<br />
less impressive seasons according<br />
to the win-loss column<br />
of the club, one of the club's<br />
veter<strong>an</strong>s feels the team has<br />
been performing respectably.<br />
Bry<strong>an</strong> Dumaine, in his third<br />
season with the Millionaires,<br />
talked about this year's young<br />
club. • -<br />
"It's not too bad for the<br />
amount of young guys," Dumaine\replied<br />
when queried<br />
about his feelings oh the<br />
season. He feels it is difficult<br />
to say how the team will do<br />
come playoff time but thinks if<br />
they c<strong>an</strong> continue to play the<br />
way they have lately they<br />
should do well.<br />
The leading scorer for the<br />
Millionaires thinks everyone<br />
including the rookies of the<br />
"squad should hold up under<br />
the playoff pressures.<br />
, "Everyone should be used<br />
to playing in the league now,"<br />
Dumaine said, "so it shouldn't<br />
be too different in playoffs."<br />
Dumaine admitted it was "a<br />
little hard" to get up for a<br />
game against the cellar-dwelling<br />
Blazers, but also noted<br />
the team should not* be taken<br />
lightly.<br />
