Collegiate Hockey Team Collegiate League Hockey By beating the Normal School 7-5 in a final series of two games that were as closely contested as anything seen in local hockey circles during the season, Tech hockeyists won their second provincial championship and retained possession of the Picardy Cup, emblematic of the Alberta Collegiate title. The final triumph came after the team had fought stub¬ bornly through a season that was marked with disappointments, internal friction and trouble. The team began the league schedule without a coach and with very little support from the student body, but after J. H. Logan, an ex-student, started to devote his spare time to guiding the team through its battles, prospects began to brighten, and at the final game close to 200 students packed the sidelines to cheer the warriors to victory. In the league schedule the squad was defeated by the Nor¬ mal School, but won the right to meet the west wing students in the finals by eliminating Mount Royal College. The loss of Maynard, one of the team’s star defence players, made things look black just before the finals, but the coach tightened up the team and allayed the player’s fears to such an extent that they came through both games with one-goal margins. There can be no doubt that this year’s hockey team has been more than a credit to the school. The class of play was wonderful and spectators from the city who saw the finals re¬ marked that it was almost equal to that seen in senior amateur circles. To the players and coach the student body extends its heartiest congratulations on their notable achievement in win¬ ning the Picardy Cup two years running. “MATTIE” WOOD, Goal—Played two years for Tech and one with P. T. Maroons. Considered by Junior League officials to be one of the best junior custodians in the city. “SHORTY” TALLMAN, Goal—A iv ' ce net-minder who can stop them from close in. Goggles handicap him and he is not so good on long drives. Played for Tech last year. “RED” WRIGHT, Left Defence—Noted for his solo rushes and the strong shot he packs in his stick. Wore the Normal School tri-color last season. “SPEED” MAYNARD, Left Defence—A wonderful stick-hand¬ ler, who didn’t appear in the finals owing to sickness due to over-training. Besides being guard for Tech, he was also on the senior Maroon lineup. “SCOTTY” MacKAY, Right Defence—Developed a nice-working hook-check with High R ; ver juveniles in 1927-28, and used it to carry the Green and Gold to victory. “JAY” BELL, Right Wing—A spectacular and speedy player whose only fault was failure to watch his man enough in back-checking. Played with Hussar juniors last season. “BUZZ” JONES, Centre and Captain—Combined Tghtning speed with clever stick-handling and head work. Is also a mem¬ ber of the 1931 edition of the Calgary Canadians. “DOUG” CORRIE, Left Wing—A dependable shot, who scored most of the team’s goals this season. Graduated from Fernie Rotarians. “JEFF” JEFFRIES, Right Wing—A n ' ce hook-checker and one of the top goal scorers, but had a habit of wandering from his position. Second year playing for Tech. “TINY” SASSO, Centre—A neat shooter who plays a defensive style at pivot position. An individualist. Spent 1929-30 season with Exshaw juniors. “PETE” GORDON, Left Wing—A fine combination player with an effective stick around the goal. Was on the line-up of the Red Deer juniors last year. “PAT” PATTERSON, Left Wing — Has makings of a good player, but lacked the weight necessary to be a regular on the team. Played with Ex-King George juveniles, Vancou¬ ver, last season. Page Twent p
