Mike Webber scored the winning goal, his second of the night, at 6:23 of a 10 minute (not sudden death) overtime period. Rob Warren also scored twice for the winners and Rich Heller had a single goal. Mike Fair scored twice for Siskins while singles went to Steve Aebersold and Wayne Barnard. Barnard‘s goal at 8: 05 of the third period was the tying marker that sent the game into overtime.

How about B. Riggs. Bobby Biggs.“_ â€" O _ ‘""No," he said, ‘"it‘s Trevor Briggs, the last player to wear number 21 before Peter Savich." _ Briggs was last player to wear the number before Savich and Savich will be the last player ever to wear the 21.

"-I-;'vs"fafift-fi»é(;al'proved to be a heartbreaker because Siskins‘ Greg Munroe had replied seconds after Kitchener‘s third goal made the score 3â€"1. â€" Al Kimmel, left alone in front of the net, gave Kitchener its fourth goal. Kimmel was Kitchener‘s only twoâ€"goal scorer and he was also on the receiving end of some spearing that landed Don Oberle a fiveâ€"minute major penalty. Coaches from both camps agreed that Kimmel had provoked Oberle, but Siskins‘ version was that Kimmel had speared Oberle first while B‘s coach Jim Jenks said Kimmel had done only minor stick work for which he was already being assessed a penalty when Oberle retaliated. "Kimmel‘s a backâ€"stabber," Siskin coach Ross Yantzi said of the centre who started the season with Siskins. ‘"He got (Oberle) first. I wouldn‘t want him on my team.

The Chronicle also congratulates Saâ€" vich, who was named the outstanding university allâ€"Canadian at the end of the last basketball season. Savich becomes the fourth Warrior to have his number retired after Jaan Laaniste (11), the late Mike Moser (53) and Bill Jones (22) and he is UW‘s allâ€"time scoring leader. He added to his totals with 14 points, including Warriors‘ first twoâ€" pointer of the night, as Warriors dropped Marauders 80â€"73. _ Earlier that day, Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks had played their tast home game ofâ€" scored for the B‘s during Oberle‘s major to put the game out of reach midway through the third period. Other Kitchener goals went to Rick Heller, Steve Perry, Paul Penelton, Brian Pedlar and Jamey Hicks. Dominic Niro had Siskins‘ other goal. Yantzi acknowledged that Munroe and Niro gave a good effort along with Jeff Sittler and Bill Kuchma, but he wasn‘t overjoyed due to the lack of team effort on Sunday. "We‘re playing like it‘s exhibition," said Yantzi, "like you have the rest of the season in front of you." "The first period I didn‘t think we had many guys other than (goalie) Brad Martin playing well," said Jenks. "At the end of the second period I still didn‘t think we‘d earned our lead. In the third period we showed some class and sucked up everything they threw at us." _ Jenks admitted he wasn‘t impressed with his club‘s teamwork for much of the game, either.
