HIGHLIGHTS March 10, 2005 Runnin’ o’ the Green The 8th annual Ocean View St. Patrick’s 5K, a fundraiser for the MV Boys & girls Club, kicks off at 11 am, Sunday, March 20. Register at the Ocean View Saturday evening or Sunday morning. RCBL Playoffs The Patriots evened the score with the Lakers with a 100-99 playoff win at the B&G, Monday, forcing a third and final game next Monday to decide which team will take on the undefeated Timberwolves for RCBL bragging rights. The Lakers lost the game but earned a dozen mettle points for effort. Only five Lakers showed up so there was never a chance for any of the league’s most experienced players to take a blow and recoup. Two and a half minutes into the fourth quarter, Chris Forbes fouled out leaving four Lakers to finish the game. At the time the Lakers led by two, 79-77. Four minutes later the Pat’s Teejay Roginski followed Forbes to the sidelines, but the Patriots had a sixth player available in Steve Brown and were able to keep five men on the floor. The teams exchanged goals throughout the period with the Pats keeping a nose ahead until, with final seconds ticking away, John Healy stole the ball and passed it to Albie Robinson who laid it up and in to tie the game at 99. It was the 10th time that the score had been tied in the second half. With 4.6 seconds on the clock Sandy Fisher sank one of two foul shots providing the Pats with the winning margin. Patriot Damon Mello had the game-high 35, just two more than Albie Robinson’s 33 for the Lakers. In the twin-bill nightcap, the unbeaten T-Wolves eliminated the Legends, 109-80. Julius Middleton’s 17 was tops for the Legends. Jason O’Donnell’s 25 paced the Wolves. The Timberwolves have a week off awaiting the outcome of the third Pats vs. Lakers game, which tips off at the B&G at 7 pm next Monday. Darting at the PA Steve Furtaw and friends T.R. Fullin, Joe Blais, and Lucy Roy took the swag Thursday, Feb. 24 beating Jarda Kral and cronies, 9-2. Steve hit a 102 3-dart-on. On Thursday, March 3, the Bettencourt bunch of Dave, Kurt Tesch, Peter Valentzas with Keith Fullin and Wes Wood claimed the pot with an 8-3 crunching of the Kral crew. Dave Herrmann hit a 98 3-dart-out. The Bettencourt band leads the league with 40, followed by the Furtaw fellowship with 38 and Steve Maciel’s marksmen with 35. At win, place and show in the March 6 Round Robin tournament were: (1) Francis Garvey, (2) Tim Fullin, (3) Laurie Maciel. Peters has a tee. In last week’s Times, Jarek Peters’s name was correctly spelled under a picture of the champion Bantam Yankees, but was twice rendered “Peers” in the accompanying story. Our bad. Yanks do us proud The MV Youth Hockey Bantam Yankees, one of the three MV Youth Hockey teams to qualify for state tournaments in Springfield, competed in division II last weekend Friday evening the Vineyarders lost a barnburner to Plymouth, 4-3.
