Junior C Vets win first game, 9–7 over FergusThe Shelburne Caravaggio IDA Junior C Vets played their first game of the season in exhibition play against the Fergus Thistles on Saturday, May 3, and left the arena with the first win of the season. The game got underway with a 2 p.m. start. The first exhibition game is always a good opener for any squad in an effort to see how the team plays together when they are up against another competitive team and the Vets turned out a solid performance with the new line-up taking to the floor as a unit for the first time. The Fergus team finished last season as a .500 team right in the middle of the standings, but still two points ahead of the Vets. The Vets wrapped up last season on the negative side finishing with a 6–9–1 record for the year. In Saturday's game Chuck McCannell got the hattrick scoring three for the squad. Doug Derbyshire scored a pair. For singles, Kyle Stavely, Todd Greer, Tyler Sheppard, and Ty McCallum stepped up to give the Vets the first win of the season ending the game at 9–7. With exhibition play now over, the teams of the Ontario Junior C Lacrosse League will have to focus on the task in hand when the regular season kicks off this week. For the Vets, their fist game will be against Six Nations on Friday, May 9, at the Centre Dufferin Recreation Complex in Shelburne. The Six Nations team is new to the Junior C loop this season, but they come from a strong tradition of Lacrosse and the Six Nations organization now has teams in all Junior level lacrosse in Ontario. The Vets home opener is scheduled to get underway at 8 p.m. By Brian Lockhart |
