~â€"~109992. Well, WLU hockey coach Wayne Gowing can‘t control the latter, but he can control the former as his club, for the first time in years, faces the possibility of missing the playoffs in the highlyâ€"competitive OUAA Central Diviâ€" sion. Hawks, at the Christmas break, are mired in fifth place in the sixâ€"team division, ahead of only Guelph and well back of perennial rivals York, Western, Waterloo and Toronto. The top four advance. ‘"‘Maybe the initial evaluation we made of chances is not correct," said Gowing matterâ€"ofâ€" factly last week.

Since taking over the helm in 1973, Gowing has brought tremendous recognition to the Hawk hockey program with strong recruiting and the stressing of building on fundamental basics.
