By Phil Stanyer

A stunned Group of UPEI Panthers returned from the Dalhousie Lobster Pot

Hockey Tournament Satur-'

day, after two consecutive losses bumped them from further competitibn.

The Panthers lost 4-3 inan

overtime shootout to the Mount Allison Mounties, Saturday, after dropping a 6-5 decision to the St. Mary’s Huskies Friday.

UPEI were certainly the favourites going into Friday’s game against St. Mary’s, but five powerplay goals in the

final forty minutes lifted the Huskies to the victory.

The Panthers looked im- pressive in the first period jumping out to a 3-0 lead 0n goals by Norman Beck and two from Steve Fulton but penalties killed them; a total of 16 penalty minutes in the

initial frame alone.

The Huskies tied the score at 4-4, taking full advantage of playing with the man advantage, before Albert Roche gave the Panthers a one goal lead late in the second period.

UPEI and Mount A played to a scoreless first half but Dclyth Roberts gave the home team the victory with a penalty stroke in the second half.

Remi Slysz recorded ‘the shutout.

The Lady Panthers have not.won a game this season and have managed only one tie so far. The ladies play a fairly good game but lack the offensive power of some of the other AUAA teams.

UPEI finish their regular,

season on the road'this week- end as they travel, to Nova

Scotia for two games: Satur- day in Antigonish against St. Francis Xavier and Sunday when they play Dalhousie University in Halifax.

goals, Lisa Kilpatrick and Anne Campbell each scored one while Lorraine Hickey scored for Memorial.

In Antigonish, Sharon Andrews scored three goals and Janice Cossar added another to give Dalhousie a 4-0 shutout Over St. F.X.

In AUAA football, Acadia Axemen defeated Mount Allison 21-17 and Dave Leim scored three‘goals Saturday to pace St. F.X. to a 4—2 victory over Dalhousie Uni- versity in AUAA soccer in Antigonish.

Scott Neil is once again U.P.E.I.’s Male Athlete of the Week. Scott put in his second four-goal performance of the season to lead the soccer Panthers to a weekend sweep of

in the third, when Drew Gareau beat Panthers goalie

Tony Halladuick with UPEI’s Steve Fulton in the ’penalty box.

The winning goal came with just under four minutes to play when Jeff Selig got the puck past Halladuick.

The Panthers applied good pressure in the final minute but were unable to tie the score.

UPEI took on a Mount Allison team Saturday that had been beaten 9-4 by the Acadia Axemen the day be- fore. That didn’t seem to bother the Mounties.

When Ron Carragher drilled a penalty shot high over the glove of Dean Frost with 9:01 to play, the Panthers moved to a 3-1 lead.

But David MacDonald scored twice from his left defensive position four minutes to force the 'Sl’lOOtOUt. A

Carragher set the tone for the extra session when the

puck rolled off his stick be- fore he shot as he went to his backhand.

After Greg Gravel was stoned by Frost’s left pad ‘save, Peter Jones popped one in for the Mounties and put the pressure on Albert Roche to keep the Panthers alive.

Roche’s attempt was stopped by Frost and the Mounties had shocked a devasted Panther squad.

The Panthers cannot be totally discouraged with the two defeats, Greg Gravel, last year’s, AUAA MVP, scored Saturday, as did Rany Muttart, a newcomer who played last year in QMJHL.

Muttan actually had two or three good scoring op- portunities in the game and is definitely a solid player.

With a little more hard work and a lot more getting used to one another, the Panthers should be con- tenders once again for the AUAA title.
