LEAMINGTON
– Two days after playing their best game of the
season, the Sarnia Legionnaires put in their worst
performance of the campaign here Saturday night.
Coach Dan Rose's Greater Ontario Junior Hockey
League club dropped a 7-0 decision to the hometown
Leamington Flyers.
Just 48 hours earlier, the Sarnians had upset the
first place London Nationals 5-4.
With the victory Leamington moved into a tie for
sixth place with Sarnia in the league's highly
competitive western conference.
Sarnia is now at the .500 mark again, with an
18-18-3 record.
The
Flyers outshot the Legionnaires 55-16.
Kyle Washer took the loss in net, dropping his
record to 15-6-1. In all, he stopped 36 of 41 shots
he faced.
Sean Parker, who came on in relief at the start of
the third period, turned aside 12 of 14 pucks fired
his way.
There was one fight, featuring Jeff Schroeter of the
Legionnaires and Ron Soucie, who was demoted by the
OHL Sarnia Sting earlier this month.
