Tournament Exhibition Games: Won Lost 5 The team started the season on the right foot by capturing the Consolation Trophy at the E.O.I.T. Tournament. At Christmas the team, in second place, trailed undefeated Ridgemont by two points. In the holidays, the Hawks were one of the four teams to represent Ottawa in the Carleron Invitational Tour- ney. Also in exhibition play, Renfrew, Cornwall, Arnprior and the Graduates all fell to the Seniors. Individually, at Christmas, Dave Medhurst and Lloyd Rossman were number one and two respectively in the Eastern League scoring race. The outcome of league action was quarter-final play against Ridgemont, the eventual champions. In this series, the team fought hard but were beaten by the experien- ced veterans in the green and white. The final game of this eventful twenty-three game season was against Arnprior, in which the squad, down by ten points with three minutes left, came back to pull it out of the fire, 52 - 51 . This game was indicative of the exacting and unpredictable team Mr. Boyce had to coach. The team would like to thank him very much for helping us have a good sea- son. Junior ( Sous ' (JSashetball This year ' s Junior team, although not very success- ful on the scoreboard, showed fine sportsmanship and initiative. The season record of four wins and ten losses was not indica- tive of the style of play exhibited by the team. They came within seven or less points of defeating every team in their respective league. Special mention has to be made of the expert coaching and patience of Mr. McAskin, who never lost spirit.

In between, the team played 8 league games, winning all but two. Both of these games were real thrillers. The first, on St. Pats ' home floor, was a last-minute loss on a foul-shot. The second was a low scoring 19-17 loss to the same team at home. Had we won either of these games we would have ended the season in first place. In the two game total point play-off, we lost the first to Lisgar by FIVE points, won the second by TWO and the

MISSING: Mr. Austin (Coach) Led by Rick Thrasher and Bruce McNaught in the scoring columns and Doug Boyes between the pipes, The Hawks made a very commendable showing this year. Although they were defeat- ed in the quarter-finals by Ridgemont, the Hawks ended the season with an 8 win 4 loss record, a good showing for the team, that had only four holdovers from the 64 - 65 Championship Team. Unfortunately the hockey players received little support in their endeavours which could have made a difference. For those who did show their loyalty, many thanks. Perhaps next year, with the return of the majority of this year ' s team, we will bring the High School Hockey Cham- pionship back to Hill crest. Honourable mention must go to Doug Boyes who lost the goal tending trophy by a single goal. His goals against average for 12 games was a fantastic 1 .59. Congratulations on a fine team effort.
