"We know that to win the whole thing, we're going to have to beat two very good teams. Fortunately we've done well recently against all of them." Down at WLU, Hawks will be out to salvage something from a tough season statis- tically. They certainly ean't have much momentum after alloWing Brock their first win of the year, but are con- scious of the fact they could be underrated by many of the top clubs.

The WLU boss is confident of Woof's chances to crack the CPL, and compares his versatility with that of WLU grad Chuck McMann. a valuable utility man with Montreal Alouettes.

Accompanying Ray on the second team was Bob Fitzgerald of Laurier Hawks, who no doubt would have made first team had his club been promin- ent in the standings. “Actually it will probably work to his advantage not to get drafted," said Knight Monday.

Porter was excellent from the floor and also was a valuable rebounder for Athenas, who unfortunately saw their season end in disappointment in pre-final elimination at Brock University two weeks ago. Down the road Laurier forward Karen Danch was named to the Tier 11 first all-star team. It was an award long over; due and richly-deserved for Danch. whose sportsmanship. drive and dedication to team and self improvement have highlighted her mrtstanding tttree-year career with Hawks. Among the foothalldraftees, the first to be selected was WLU Golden Hawk wide receiver Wes Woof. an athlete of exemplary dedication during his four years at WLU. Woof was 4aken in the fourth round by Ottawa Rough Riders. While Hawk head coach Dave (Taffy) Knight was pleased with the selections. he thought that linebacker Mike Gram, who had an outstanding year with the purple and gold in 1979, might have been overlooked.
