CHEETAHS OUTSTANDING

N.S. girls triumph
in soccer tourney

THE NORTH SHORE girls are making a big hit
on the soccer comeback trail if the weekend’s

performance at

the Coastal Division cham-

pionships are any indication.

By NANCY CAMPBELL

A strong performance by
all three teams entered in the
Sun's Tournament of
Champions netted a win, a
loss and a tie for the North
Shore squads.

To top off a star per-
formance, two North Shore
girls were named to the
tournament's all star team:
goalie Katherina Fiala of the
West Vancouver Cheetahs.
and Marie Jeanne Vecsy of
the Lynn Valley Christy
Falcons.

The Cheetahs put in an
outstanding performance,
blanking the Surdel Rustlers
1-0 in a tough match.
Although the Rustlers had
many good scoring chances,
goalie Fiala held them off in
the tournament's only shut-
out. Erin Dixon scored the
game’s only goal.

The Cheetahs’ win was all
the sweeter since the Under
12 team only placed second
in regular season play.

The Christy Falcons’
played a topsy-lurvey game
with the Port Coquitlam
Poco Blizzard, finishing with
a 22 tte. Mane Jeanne
Vecsy was a stand-out and
netted both goals for the
defending provincial
champions.

The Falcons opened the

scoreboard with an early
goal, which was quickly
answered and doubled. But
with five minutes to go,
Vecsy evened out the total,
earning the squad the co-
championship of the Under
13 division.

Because the Interior
Division is now strong
enough to compete in
provincial play, the Falcons
and Blizzard must have a
rematch to determine who
goes on to play for the
provincial title.

(In previous years, the
winner of the Coastal
Division championship also
took the Provincial gold
medal. As a _ result, the
Falcons were provincial
champs in '80 and 81, even
though they stopped playing
at the Coastal Division
level.)

The rematch, tentatively

scheduled for May 11, will
be a real nail biter. With
three meetings between
them, the teams have each
walked away with a win, a tie
and a loss.

The third North Shore
team competing, the Under
11 West Van Tigers, lost a 2-
1 decision to the Burnaby
Edmonds Wasps, with
Keesha Middlemass scoring
the Tiger's only goal. But for
a team which finished fourth
in regular season play, the
Tiger’s acquitted themselves
handsomely.

The tournament's results
are the best in recent history
for the girls’ branch of the
North Shore Youth Soccer
Association.

For 10 years the North
Shore failed to send a single
team to the finals unm! the
Falcons broke the drought in
1980. The following year,
two teams made the trek out
to Swangard and this year's
total of three teams promises
an even better season next
year.
