On Saturday in Halifax,- the Panthers were tired and
but inconsistent hockey and this is what caused their 4—
1 loss at the hands of.SMU£ This coming weekend we can
V.on1y hope the Panthers play
against St. FX as they did
against Moncton. If the Panthers do we will be in,
‘the Atlantic Finals but if not, well ? .
The #7 th ranked team in 'Canadawill be coming off wins over UNB and Dalhousie
Val Mitchell and company
go to St. F. X. this week- end looking to upset the favoured X—men in their home rink. This is a semi—final action and, looking at the Panthers' defeat of Moncton on Wednesday night, ( 6-3), anything is possible in
such a short series.
In Wednesday's defeat of Moncton, it was only fitting that a graduating player, Lennie Kelly, scored the gamefiwinning goal at the 65 second mark of the third per- iod. Four members of the Panthers will be leaning our ranks at the end of this season and they all will be greatly missed. Gerry Mac— Carron for his tough brand of hockey, Lennie Kelly who shows leadership and scoring ability, Carl Trainor who always kept hustling on the ice and Lorne Carmichael who
‘ added a great deal of hockey
sense to a young team.
In Acadia the Panthers showed the Axemen what it means to play 60 minutes of hockey against a good hockey team.
Bob Mitchell, Lorne Car- michael, Philip Claybourne, and Lennie Kelly all scored as the Panthers scored a 4 — 2 victory in Wolfville.,
‘ looking to upset #1 ranked Acadia in a game which could mean lst place in the AUAA as well as a standing of more prominence in the NatO ional Rankings. ‘ ' On Sat. night in Wolf— , ville ,N.S., the Panthers will face possibly their
biggest test this season. The Panthers have been play—
ing tough basketball in the last few games and on Sort. they have the chance to put it all together.
Over the weekend Ken Rowe
had a big game in UNB, where‘
he connected for 28 points and totally demolished a
young team which is definitely
not in the same calibre of basketball as the rest of the AUAA. Rowe also had 13 rebounds while Tom Kappos scored 20 points and hauled down 19 rebounds.
On Sunday at home, against
Dal the Panthers opened the game up and never looked
back when graduating senior Rick Millard hit two quick baskets fodlowed by Kappos
and Rowe each scoring 4 pts.
in a space of time where Da
only hit for A points..
Dal was never really in the
game from the start but the loss of Bob Fagin at half—

The final score of the Dal—

The Lady Panthers.obvious1y did not read the Cadre as I had previously predicted an upset OVer Dal but instead they were beaten 72 - 48.
The Lady Panthers were .- beaten on Friday night in UNB by a godd solid basket- ball team and returned home Sunday looking to take out their frustrationuon the Tigerettes but this was not to be the case, The Dal squad outscored the Lady . Panthers 43 ~ 20 in the first half and then had to hold On to win.‘ , -
The Lady Panthers played 'a solid game~in the second‘ half where they were only outscored by one point 29»

Ken Rowe shot well from the 'outside and Rick Millard's coverage of Bob Fagin was impressive. Kevin Feighery and Mark Vickers although not showing up brilliantly on the scoring side of the game did feed Kappos a lot of.easy shots. Feighery and Vickers have the talent
' to make things happen and in
Sunday's game they made the Dal squad make mistakes and then fed the big men under the boards. The Panthers had 43 rebounds to dominate the defensive boards as well as
control the offensive boards.
rKevin Feighery, Rick Mill—
‘ ard and Gordie MacKay all 1 were honored before the start
of the Dal game and rightly
at the end of this season a and without these three the
time due to a sprained ankle Panthers would probably not

be fighting Acadia for the #1 spot in AUAA. ' Rick Millard came to UPEI
looking to play Out his el—.
igibility with a national contender and he has fit in with the Panthers to become one of the leaders when the going got physical under the boards. .
Gordie MacKay came to the Panthers at the first of the year and added that extra bit of experience which was needed to keep a young team
from.sinking. The last of the Panther
graduates, Kevin Feighery, is the best guard ever to graduate from UPEI.and he has made his presence felt throughout the league . Kenin is the general of the Panthers when on the court
and without his excellent
shooting the Panthers would be in trouble. Kevin makes everything look so easy as he does everything closeto
so. All three are graduating
48 with Sharon MtLure and Sheri Sterns both picking‘ ,gup 12 points with Sterns hauling down 13 rebounds. As a team the Lady Panthers shot 31 Z from_the floor whilethe Dal squad shot .” 38 Z. The difference in the game Sunday was the Lady Panthers' inability to . play basketball in the‘ first half. Barb Mullally' and Co. will have to put two good halves of basket-
ball together in order to defeat Acadia or SMU this Upcoming weekend.
On Sunday, Janet Ellis played her final homegame in a Panther uniform. Janet v.came to UPEI from Dalhousie
two years ago and she has
been one of the steadying .
