sarniasports.com june 6th, 2011

 

Sarnia, ON – In their final game of their five game home stand, the Sarnia Pacers lacrosse team took on division rival and leader Windsor Clippers, but unfortunately fell 14-4 in the Sunday night Junior B lacrosse game.

 

Windsor would control the score board for the first period of the game, shutting out the Pacers, while scoring eight of their own. Jeff Rivait would score the first and last goals of the period for Windsor, while Corey Burchell and Brett Hickey would each add two of their own, and Lucas Ducharme AP and Steve Hinek added singles. This saw the Pacers make a goal change, as Ian Ferguson who started was replaced by regular starter Justin Matthews.

 

In the second period, Burchell would complete his hat-trick just 1:47 into the period. But nine seconds later, Dan Charlton would score his 21st of the season to get Sarnia on the board. Devin Humphrey would respond for the Clippers to restore the 9 goal lead, but on the powerplay, Aaron Schieman would score for the Pacers, followed Charlton scoring his second of the period. Sarnia was still down 10-3 heading into the third.

 

Hinek would get the scoring started in the third with his second of the game for Windsor. Sarnia would get another powerplay goal as Kevin Hussey scored at 4:43. But that would be all for Sarnia as Hickey would score his third of the game and Burchell would score his fourth goals of the game, as well as Nathan Hodgins adding a single goal in the 14-4 victory.

 

Ferguson made 9 saves on 17 shots, while Matthews made 30 saves on 36 shots. The Pacers were shutout in the final two periods against the Spartans on Saturday, which made for a game held scoreless with no goals in the first.

 

Sarnia (4-11-0) now heads onto the road for the first half of a home-and-home with London on Wednesday, June 8th, followed by the return home game on Friday, June 10th.
