* _ Warriors keep pressure on brutal Lancers ‘‘Yes, that (Laurier) game affected us in that we concentrated in practice all week to make sure it didn‘t happen again â€" we have to go out after those wins." ‘‘There was no way we were just trying to run up the score, but that‘s the first time this year we‘ve been able to get a lead and then put a team away,‘‘ said McKillop outside his club‘s dressing room. ‘*Looking back, there‘s been several times weshould have, but haven‘t." McKillop specifically cited his club‘s 44 tie with Laurier just a week earlier when UW had a 4â€"2 Jead with six minutes remaining only to be tied at the end. By Rick Campbell Chronicle Sports Editor There was no doubt Friâ€" day the "killer instincet‘" played a major role in shapâ€" ing University of Waterioo Warriors 125 win over Windsor Lancers. + Even with their big lead, Warriors played throughout like they were n:'fi:fing for a lifeâ€"orâ€"death , and that made UW coach Bob McKilâ€" lop extremely happy. Although happy with his club‘s offensive firepower, McKillop was disturbed by several instances of shoddy defense by his club to allow Page. 14 â€" Waterloo Chronicile, Wednesday, January 16, 1980 Mike Longpre led the spree with three goals, all coming before the end of the second period. Don Langlois notched a pair as did Mark Gray, while singles went Randy Neal, John Whalen, Barry ?eynard, Dan Blumm and Paul Foley who beat Windsor goalie Don Johnson from pointâ€"blank Warriors had a 4â€"2 lead after one period and upped it to 8â€"3 at the end of two.

We had a meeting after the Laurier game to talk about those mistakes and had another one just now. Some of our mistakes in our end were just awful, if we had committed . them against a good club we would have been blown away for sure." the motley Windsor crew its goal totals â€" and he wasted no time in informing his charges of their blunders after the game. By Rick Campbell Chronicle Sports Editor In this day and age, there are few things as reassuring as knowing where you are at. Al McCrae doesâ€"as do most goalies he faces while playing centre for Wilfrid Laurier hockey Hawks. McCrae, in his second year with the WLU club has impressed almost every Randy Swanson of Waterloo Warriors made no mistake on this thirdâ€"period play Friday as he beat Windsor goalie Don Johnston with a clever deke. Warriors won 12â€"5. Oneâ€"man wrecking crew _ o Heads up when McCrae around Impossible to miss while he is on the ice, McCrae is best known for creating havoc in the opposition‘s end, and more specifically in the goal crease where he has shown little reluctance to exchange the occasional jab with goalies or defenâ€" Quite the contrary, the Toronto native is probably the roughest of all diamonds in the rough that have been turned out by Laurier in reâ€" cent years. But his ramâ€" bunctious, helterâ€"skelter apâ€" proach has inarguably paid off in spades for the strugâ€" gling Hawk club. He scored the goal that got them on the comback trail in a 4â€"4 tie with Waâ€" terloo 10 days ago and last Saturday was the playâ€" maker of the game with four assists as Hawks dismissed the hapless Windsor Lancer 6â€"2. game, but it sure isn‘t beâ€" cause he has the moves of a Guy Lafleur or Marcel Dionâ€" ne. Most effective on smaller ice surfaces, McCrae has also proven he is quite at home at the Kitchener Aud as he has been Hawks best performer in their two games there since Christâ€" Naturally his exuberance often results in a trip to the penalty box, but McCrae is confident in his role as monâ€" keywrench. Especially when it has brought him more than a point a game for the 36â€"3 Hawks since he now has an unofficial season total of eight goals and seven assists. "I see it as my job to creaâ€" te problems in the other teams end,""‘ said McCrae Saturday. "I‘v::iglys been a goalscorer certainly not because of finesse. I have to work my butt off for every goal I get." _ _ Through his industrious actions, McCrae made his way to the Provincial Junior A ranks in Toronto, but his uncompromising style proâ€" bably more than anything else earned him a seat in the pressbox for most of his iniâ€" tial season with Hawks. "‘I‘m the first to admit it, I‘m probably the worst Dary! Benjamin of WLU Golden Hawks was the club‘s Player of the Month for December and accepts the plaque from Carlingâ€"O‘Keete rep Dave Ryan. player on the ice during practice, I just don‘t do many things that would impress a coach so I can‘t really blame <(Laurier coach) Wayne (Gowing) for not playing me more last year. But I need game situaâ€" tions to show what Iâ€"can doâ€"win, lose or draw I always come off the ice knowing at least I give 100% all the time." McCrae is worried that his allâ€"tooâ€"obvious style is making referees muchâ€"tooâ€" aware of his actions. One thing for sure, both Waâ€" terloo goalie Rick Nickelâ€" chok and Windsor goalie Dave Caron will vouch that indeed McCrae had dropped by to say hello in the past two outings. *‘*With our club this year, our best opportunity to score comes when we make the other team cough up the puckâ€"and that‘s my departâ€" ment,"" said the bearded soâ€" phomore. "I just love the physical contact, whether I‘m giving or receiving, and if I can get several hits every time I‘m out there, I come off the ice satisfied that I‘ve had a good shiftâ€"even if we didn‘t score a goal." Windsor‘s Mark Matheson opened the scoring Saturday early in the first period with the teams playing threeâ€"aâ€" side, but quick goals in sucâ€" cession by Don Poulter and Perry Mark gave Hawks a 2â€" Notes: Ken Scott played a tremendouslyâ€"efficient game in goal for Hawks Saâ€" turday and made a specâ€" tacular save off the stick of Matheson in the first period...Laurier playerâ€"ofâ€" theâ€"month for December was captain Daryl Benâ€" They increased that to 4â€"2 after two with markers by defenseman Paul McSorley and Tony Martindale, who only minutes before had popped out his shoulder in a resounding thud into the end boards. Then in the third Brian Crombeen and Mark, with his second, put the finâ€" ishing touches on the ineviâ€" table result. That won‘t be easy for Hawks this week. Friday they travel to Hamilton to play McMaster and then go right back at it Saturday against Laurentian and the new Conestoga Complex on the Doon Campus. Game time is 2 p.m. **We forced them into a lot of mistakes, and hopefully we can continue doing that against the better clubs too,"" said Hawk coach Wayne Gowing. ‘"Part of the problem is that even when we‘ve had super weeks of practice, the guys haven‘t séen the reward (win) on Saturdays. We have to deveâ€" lop some momentum in order to make a run at the playoffs." > 1 lead after one.
