At approximately 8 p.m. a 19-year-old man was standing on the hood of a grey Toyota travelling westbound on Maggs Street. As the vehicle entered the intersec- tion at Hibbins Avenue, the driver braked, causing the victim to be thrown from the hood and strike the pavement, say police. The victim was taken to Ajax hospital and then transferred to a trauma hospital in Toronto. The roads were closed for several hours while police investigated. Police say alco- hol and road and weather conditions did not play a factor. Ali Malik, 19, of Bicknell Court, was charged with dangerous operation of a motor vehicle causing bodily harm.

On Jan. 30 in the park behind the McLean Community Centre in Ajax, two individuals heard what seemed like a person scream- ing and in distress. They ran to see what was wrong and found a white man in his 20s, wearing a hooded sweatshirt, violently beat- ing and punching with his fist a crying Rott- weiler puppy, near the river bank. The two individuals screamed at the man telling him to stop and when he saw the wit- nesses, he immediately fled the scene. “They thought the dog was dead because it was just laying on the ground,” said Ruby Richards of the Humane Society of Durham Region. After five minutes, the eight-month-old puppy got up and the witnesses contacted the Humane Society to report the incident. “We do thank the two individuals that did stop it, at least yelled, because obviously if that had not happened, (the dog) could have been killed,” said animal cruelty investigator Debby Houghton. The puppy, now called Geoffrey, was taken for X-rays and tests and was very sore with bloodshot eyes and bleeding from the nose. Geoffrey was put under veterinarian care and while it seemed to be recovering at first, there now seems to be swelling in the brain or eye area. “He was blind yesterday,” said Ms. Rich- ards. On March 1, the dog was taken to the Uni- versity of Guelph for further tests to see if this is a result of the trauma experienced during the beating. The Humane Society is urging the public to step forward with any information on the man responsible for the beatingrot. “Somebody must know of somebody in the Ajax area that had a male Rottweiler and now does not,” said Ms. Richards. Anyone who may have witnessed the inci- dent is asked to call the investigations line. “He’s just a wonderful, gentle dog and he’s only a puppy,” said Ms. Richards. “He didn’t deserve to have this happen to him.” Ms. Houghton said it’s important to find this person now. “If this person did this now with this puppy then if he gets another animal, it would be the same situation,” she said. The Humane Society and the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals are offering a $1,000 reward for information that leads to a charge and conviction. if you have any information: CALL 905-242-8461 or 905-665-7430 ext. 225 animal welfaRe Puppy severely beaten in Ajax du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ma r c h 2 , 2 0 1 2 4 P 821 Brock Road South, Picke ring •905-420-4141 263 Po rt Union Ro ad,To ronto •416-281-3815 Learn to Sw im • Group lessons - maximum 4 swimmers per class • Private lessons - one child per instructor • FREE swim times • Integrated special needs program • Aquafit classes •Water temperature 92º, Air temperature 90º • One-way viewing lounge • Home pool lessons available • Pool rentals available • Now offering SCUBA programs • Now offering BRONZE STAR, BRONZE MEDALLION AND BRONZE CROSS Certification programs Be Smart!

Denis O’Connor teen suspended after handing out speech Kristen Calis kcalis@durhamregion.com AJAX -- Paul Gomille never thought his speech on inner beauty would result in his first high school suspension. The Grade 12 student at Archbishop Denis O’Connor Catholic High School handed out his speech entitled “A love letter to all women” on Valentine’s Day in the school cafeteria. “Real attractiveness comes from having a certain dignity,” he wrote. “It comes from hav- ing class. It comes from being true to yourself, being yourself, and being comfortable in your own skin.” Later that day he was suspended, and his friends and family want it erased from his record. The Durham Catholic District school board and DO’C principal Donna Modeste wouldn’t comment on the issue for priva- cy reasons. “I wrote it just because I had the inspi- ration to and I felt it was a message that had to be said,” Paul told the News Advertiser. This speech came a few months after the board considered banning kilts because girls were wearing them too short. When Paul showed his speech to Ms. Mod- este, “she was pretty thrilled about it,” he said. He was pleased to learn he could read it at an upcoming assembly. But when the two vice principals got involved, Paul was asked to revise his speech. While willing to make small changes, he didn’t want the speech to lose its meaning altogether and debated them on this. Paul said one of the vice principals “called me outright judgmental.” “They felt, I think, that this was kind of like stereotyping some of the young women who might take offence,” said Paul’s father, Wolfgang Gomille, a former high school teacher. Paul wrote in his speech his mes- sage was for the silent, intelli- gent women who don’t talk about people behind their backs or wear revealing clothing, and that the girls who consider themselves the opposite of this demographic don’t have to dress or act a certain way to be attractive. Paul was told he could no longer read his speech, but he could shorten it for the year- book. Instead he photocopied 136 copies with his own money and he and his friends passed them out to students at lunch. By third period, Paul was taken to the prin- cipal’s office and was told he had offended a number of people. He was given a two-day suspension for his persistent opposition to authority. While Paul knew there would be repercus- sion for his actions, he didn’t think he’d be suspended and didn’t want to hurt anyone. “He was devastated by the time I picked him up,” said his dad. Paul’s friends have started a petition that had more than 230 signatures at the time of the interview to remove the suspension from his record, and a number of them have Tweeted on the issue. “My brother has never gotten in trou- ble before,” said his older sister Alexandra Gomille, who added she was proud of Paul’s letter. Mr. Gomille said he and Paul’s mother plan to appeal the suspension. He felt the mes- sage was positive and didn’t believe his son deserved a suspension. “My mind is boggled by it,” he said. Catholic board superintendent Mitch LeP- age would not speak to the specific case, but said the committee made up of trustees can either leave a suspension as is, reduce the length or quash it altogether. Ms. Modeste indicated that in cases like this, principals are in consultation with the parents.

Ava Broomer was born via C-section just before 1:30 p.m. at Rouge Valley Health Sys- tems Ajax and Pickering hospital, weighing in at seven pounds, 13 ounces. She was the first baby to arrive on Feb. 29 at the hospital. “I wasn’t worried about having her on a leap day,” Ms. Granger said. “I thought it would be pretty cool.” Mr. Broomer is likewise complacent with their daughter’s very special birthday. “We’ll spoil her every year just the same,” he said, still looking a little shellshocked just hours after the delivery. “It didn’t really sink in until I first saw her, she was so beautiful.” Ms. Granger was expecting her daughter to have red hair like her own, but Ava sur- prised her by arriving with a shock of dark hair. Luckily, the couple hadn’t bet on that. Other than guessing when little Ava would arrive, the parents say they have few expec- tations for their baby so far. “I don’t know what she’s going to be, but I just want her to be really good in school,” Ms. Granger said. “I just want her to do the best she can do,” Mr. Broomer added. As for her special birthday, the parents say they’ll celebrate on either Feb. 28 or March 1, but when a leap year does come around they will make sure it’s extra special. “That will be an exciting day,” Ms. Granger said, smiling down at a sleeping Ava. LITTLE from page 1 PEOPLE Little Ava’s Ajax-Pickering hospital’s first leap year baby Leapling Kitty Fenby hits century mark at Orchard Villa MOya DiLLOn mdillon@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- Turning 100 hasn’t dulled Kitty Fenby’s sense of humour, as the leapling reminded party-goers at her birth- day celebrations that she was technically only 25. The Pickering resident, who moved to Orchard Villa Retire- ment Residence 10 years ago from her home in Scarborough, still wields a sharp wit. “I guess I’m just too slow to die,” Ms. Fenby says with a smile when asked what her secret to longevity is, but did credit “lead- ing a good clean life” and eat- ing healthfully with helping her reach the milestone birthday. Born prematurely in Man- chester, England, Ms. Fenby weighed just 30 ounces at delivery. She tells friends of being brought home, wrapped in blankets and placed in a drawer by the fire to keep her warm. She moved to Canada with her fam- ily at age three, settling in Kitchener for a few years before moving to Toronto. As an adult she worked at Toronto’s East General Hospi- tal in the payroll department. “She’s a fabulous woman, I think she could have been a stand-up comic,” said Gail Kostandoff, whose parents were such good friends with Ms. Fenby that she became like a relation. “She has a very sharp wit, and she knows how to use it.” Barbara Naylor, Ms. Fenby’s goddaugh- ter, says she feels lucky to still be able to visit with her godmother. “Not many people my age can say they have a godmother,” said Ms. Naylor, 80. “Kitty is a wonderful person and a lovely lady, I’ve known her all my life.” As friends and relatives gathered to congratulate Ms. Fenby during a celebration at Orchard Villa on Feb. 29, they were reminded that as a leapling, Ms. Fenby was tech- nically only celebrating her 25th birthday. Despite the age error, Ms. Fenby said she was enjoying the festivities. “It’s wonderful, it’s a lot of extra work people didn’t have to do and they did it all for me, which is so nice,” she said. When asked about future plans, Ms. Fenby said she’d like to “keep going and help other residents” at Orchard Villa. Luckily, the renowned humourist has just the thing to keep their spirits up. “Evidently, everyone likes to laugh,” she said. MiLESTOnE Pickering resident celebrates 100 years KITTY FENBY Catholic board looking at its elementary schools PICKERING -- The Catholic school board is host- ing four public meetings for its review of Pickering Catholic elementary schools.

EDUCaTiOn Public meetings set for Pickering school review Good SamaritanS Kind people stopped to help bleeding pet To the editor: I just wanted to thank a couple of women who stopped to help me out when I was stuck in a scary predicament. On Tuesday, Feb. 14, I was walking my two dogs in Oshawa when my dog, Chi- nook, started yelping. I turned and noticed his leg was bleed- ing. I quickly put one of my gloves over the cut and put pressure to stop the blood flow so that I could assess the situation, but the bleeding would not stop. I noticed a couple across the street walk- ing a dog so I yelled to see if they had a cell- phone. The woman came running across the road and offered her scarf to tie around Chinook’s leg (I declined for fear of ruining it). Though she did not have a cellphone she flagged down an approaching bus. The bus driver was kind enough to lend me her phone, but I could not reach anyone. She then opened up her first-aid kit and gave me supplies to use so I could get Chi- nook’s leg wrapped up enough to get him home. The woman with the scarf offered to walk home with us, but I declined since we were close to home. I got Chinook to a vet with his leg still bleeding. It turns out that whatever had cut him nicked an artery and he needed sur- gery. My pet is now healing quite nicely and I just wanted these two women to know that I really appreciated them stopping and helping. It is nice to know that we can still rely on the kindness of strangers. Thank you. Tammy Bonar Oshawa nuclear enerGy Vision shared by local businesses To the editor: Re: ‘Province recognizes Durham’s prima- ry role in powering Ontario’, editorial opin- ion, durhamregion.com, Feb. 17, 2012. You will be interested to know that your ‘call to arms’ statement that “the efforts here at home to promote Durham as an energy powerhouse must continue” is a vision shared by local business. Coincidentally, the Greater Oshawa Chamber of Commerce is in the process of renewing its sun-setting resolution with the Ontario Chamber of Commerce, urging the government of Ontario, in co-operation with other stakeholders, including the fed- eral government, to “ensure that Ontario, and Canada, employ a ‘made-in-Ontario’ nuclear energy strategy that will continue to provide jobs, encourage investment and foster economic strength for the Ontario and Canadian economies in the coming decades.” As you pointed out, energy expansion is a crucial element in the economy of Dur- ham Region now and in the future. I would like to commend you for your leadership on this issue. David Hare Whitby tax SeaSon Watch out for tax credit changes this year To the editor: Dalton McGuinty and his mathematically challenged finance minister, Dwight Dun- can, have really done a number on Ontar- io taxpayers. All hell is going to break loose when Ontarians do their 2011 income tax returns. No longer will you be able to claim the property tax credit, sales tax credit, or the energy credit on your income tax return in order to offset taxes to be paid, or to get a refund. These credits will be paid to you in quar- terly instalments beginning in July 2012 and ending in April 2013. Seniors will be especially hard hit. If income taxes are owed, they will have to come up with the money by the end of April 2012. If they are a homeowner, the first two instalments of property taxes are due in February and April. What a hit they are going to take. Why didn’t the Liberals tell us they were going to do this before last year’s election? This is going to cause very serious reper- cussions for many seniors.

His Val- entine’s Day gift to classmates, ‘A love let- ter to all women’, began with a moment of inspiration and good intent, and ended with his two-day suspension from school. If the point of an education is to teach children how to think critically for them- selves, stand up for their beliefs and val- ues, and strive to make a difference in the world around them, then the Catholic school board in Durham Region should instead take pride in Paul Gomille. “Real attractiveness comes from having a certain dignity,” he wrote in his letter, which he handed out in the school cafete- ria. “It comes from having class. It comes from being true to yourself, being your- self, and being comfortable in your own skin.” The content of the letter, its intent and the school’s ultimate decision to suspend Paul are only the broad brush strokes of the issue, which -- as most conflicts do -- has several more layers. School officials, after originally welcom- ing the missive, later ordered changes to it and, to his credit, Paul bristled, stood his ground and ultimately faced the heavy- handed consequence -- his first school suspension -- for doing so. It’s hard to escape the irony behind the suspension. As a result of his letter, which is consis- tently respectful in its tone and which calls on young women to be true to them- selves, Paul was ordered by school offi- cials to abandon his honestly held and honourably expressed convictions. The suspension ostensibly surrounds Paul’s decision to print copies of the letter and hand them out, a challenge to school authority. But it appears that the notion of criti- cal thinking, standing on principle and choosing to remain true to one’s beliefs -- the over-arching theme of Paul’s love let- ter -- is not encouraged at the school, but merely tolerated, to the extent that certain school administrators alone shall deter- mine. For every action, there is a reaction. Few of us will go through life without testing the boundaries of ‘authority’, and some of us will find that even the best of intentions are ignored, the circumstances deemed irrelevant, sometimes wilfully so. In the interests of demonstrating fair- ness, justice and grace, the school should wipe the suspension -- a heavy-hand- ed punishment for such a ‘crime’ -- from Paul’s record. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ma r c h 2 , 2 0 1 2 7 AP WE KEEP OUR PATIENTS SMILING BY TAKINGTHE TIME TO UNDERSTAND THEIR NEEDS.

Monsieur Lazhar is shown March 7 at 7 p.m. at the Ajax Cineplex Odeon. “This film has already received extraordinary attention, includ- ing Best Canadian Feature Film at the 2011 Toronto Internation- al Film Festival and is Canada’s submission for the Best Foreign Language Film in the 84th Acad- emy Awards (in French with English subtitles),” states a press release. The film lost to Iranian film A Separation. “This is a complex charac- ter study of loss, innocence and imposture in which Bachir Lazhar, a middle-aged Algerian immigrant seeking political ref- uge in Quebec, becomes a Mon- treal schoolteacher and learns as much from his students as they from him.” Tickets are $7 in advance at all Ajax Public Library branches or $7.50 at the theatre on film night. You don’t have to be a member to see the films.

Fledgling west durham band in the running at music showcase event mike ruta mruta@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- Matt Riches, isn’t he that folk guy? The Pickering singer/songwriter gets that a lot, and it’s understandable. Riches wrote Here In Durham, which last year won the Durham Region Jingle Contest sponsored by Durham Tourism. But listening to his new band, Retro Cir- cuit, which plays alternative rock, you wouldn’t mistake Riches for a folk guy. “I’ve always been a rock guy,” he says. “My roots are in rock and I feel that’s where we’re going.” Retro Circuit is also going to The Opera House in Toronto. The band won first place at a Landmark Showcase Competition 2012 event at Toronto’s Mod Club at the end of January and is headed to the finals at The Opera House, likely at the end of April. The event is being held simultaneously in Mon- treal, Toronto and Ottawa and five winners from each city will be chosen. Riches is predicting a win. “I think we will,” he says. “I feel really good about this. I’m not being cocky. “(The Mod Club show) wasn’t our best performance; it went well but playing-wise I thought we could do better.” Perhaps, but Retro Circuit attracted some attention at the event. After the show, Riches says the judges took the band aside, saying they had a lot of potential. The Landmark contest winners receive a slew of prizes, including recording time and mastering sessions. The band is also competing in the Spring Music Festival and Y108 Rock and Roll Challenge, with $5,000 in cash and $25,000 in prizes going to the winner. They’ve played several shows in Toronto, not bad for a band together for just a few months. In addition to Riches, Retro Cir- cuit is made up of drummer Matt Davey of Ajax, bassist Curtis Stewart of Pickering and rhythm guitarist Eric Coe of Woodbridge. Riches describes them as a mix between The Killers and Muse. They started writing songs in November and now have a cata- logue of 10 original tunes, with more in the works. “I’ve been writing all the lyrics and we’ve been collaborating on the music,” he says. Riches has been putting in a lot of time on the band, not easy when you consider he has a day job. “I come home and music is my other full- time job,” he says. “We’re contacting a lot of people, writing songs and trying to get them on Facebook. Eventually it will pay off.” Check them out at www.retrocircuitmu- sic.com or on Facebook. Listen to Retro Circuit’s Life Span at www.youtube.com/ watch?v=Fa1Rl2RJcWc.

AChievment Award launched for Aboriginal artists, arts leaders DURHAM -- A new award has been created to rec- ognize the province’s Aboriginal artists and arts leaders. The Ontario Arts Council Aboriginal Arts Award was launched at the end of January, a $7,500 prize to celebrate the achievements of Aboriginal artists and arts leaders in Ontario. “The Ontario Arts Council Aboriginal Arts Award is an important recognition of the outstanding impact Aboriginal artists and Aboriginal arts lead- ers make in their communities, and in our broader cultural landscape,” said John Brotman, OAC execu- tive director. “OAC is proud to create an award that honours their contributions to the arts in Ontario.” The recipient will then identify another artist for a prize, as each year the winner will name an emerg- ing Aboriginal artist “who best exemplifies the next generation of Aboriginal leadership in the arts.” The person receives $2,500. The deadline to nominate is before April 2. The winners will be announced at an Ontario cel- ebration during National Aboriginal History Month in June each year. Any Ontarian, Aboriginal or non- Aboriginal, can nominate for the award. To be eligible, Aboriginal artists or arts leaders must live in Ontario, or Quebec in the national capi- tal region, and be a Canadian citizen or permanent resident of Canada. Download nomination guidelines and forms on the OAC website, www.arts.on.ca, or call the OAC’s awards office for more information, 1-800-387-0058, ext. 7423. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ma r c h 2 , 2 0 1 2 12 P JW-Jones plays Pickering March 16 PICKERING -- Music By The Bay Live presents one of Canada’s top blues guitarists playing a March 16 show in Pickering. JW-Jones has picked and strummed with a veritable con- stellation of guitar heroes and his playing has received critical acclaim. “Guitar World Magazine fea- tured a CD called Guitar Mas- ters Vol. 2 that put Jones along- side guitar stars B.B. King, Jimmy Page and Carlos Santana among others, which led him to an endorsement deal with Gibson guitars,” states his website. But on his seventh disc, Sev- enth Hour, Jones eschewed the star power, saying it was time to shake things up and get back to basics. “After performing in 17 coun- tries, four continents and releas- ing six critically acclaimed discs, it’s time for a change,” states the website. “No famous guests. No fancy studios. This is JW-Jones and his band doing what they do best -- right at home, recorded in J-Dub’s living room.” The concert is at 9 p.m. at The Waterfront, 590 Liverpool Rd., Pickering. Tickets are $30 and available at The Waterfront and online at musicbythebaylive.com. CONCERTS No famous guests. No fancy studios.

Dunbarton beat Donald A. Wilson of Whitby in the LOSSA championship game. Volleyball Looking for redemption dunbarton senior girls’ volleyball team wants a medal at oFSaa brad Kelly bkelly@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- A year ago, the Dun- barton Spartans senior girls’ volleyball team reached a final game at the Quad-A OFSAA championships held in Newmar- ket. It wasn’t the game they wanted to be in, however, relegated to the consolation round after finishing third in pool play. They did make the most of the opportu- nity, sweeping Glebe, Mother Teresa and Waterdown in the playoff round on the way to becoming consolation champi- ons. With a strong cast of returning play- ers, the team went on a mission to bet- ter that performance, and has succeeded in getting the opportunity after winning the LOSSA championship over Donald A. Wilson of Whitby. The best high school teams in the province will be in Kitchen- er-Waterloo-Cambridge for the OFSAA championships that run March 5-7. “Last year when we won the consola- tion finals, I was like, ‘Next year we are coming back as the No. 1 seed’. We real- ly only lost one player from our start- ing line, so the girls have known all year that this is our year to do well,” says head coach Cheri Mowbray. “We knew we were capable of winning LOSSA and things went well for us. We’re hoping to do very well at OFSAA this year. Our goal is to medal.” Dunbarton has represented LOSSA at the OFSAA championships three of the past four years. Seeded seventh for last year’s tournament, Mowbray is expecting to be included in the top five this time out, maybe even as high as two or three, she notes. In LOSSA league play, Dun- barton finished the regular season 9-2, good enough for third place in the West Division. Their only losses came to Wil- son and Henry St., who finished tied atop the standings at 10-1. In tournament play there were gold medal wins at Sinclair and Havergal, with a silver earned at Birchmount. Along the way they topped some of the best teams in the province, including Mowat, Forrest Heights and Sinclair, who won gold at OFSAA last year. Dunbarton clipped Sin- clair twice this season, once in the Sin- clair tournament and again in the LOSSA semifinals. Mowbray attributes much of the team’s success to the team’s depth. “I have 12 players this year. Usually I have six or seven that are key players. This year I’ve got nine that will see the court and be an integral part of anything we do,” she says. Of note are a couple of players who Mowbray feels have the potential to move on to a higher level in the United States. Setter Julie Henderson is a Grade 12 stu- dent who may draw some interest from NCAA Division 2 schools, while anoth- er up-and-comer is Jaime Fryer, a Grade 11 student who is likely to draw interest from NCAA Division 1 programs. Because Sinclair won gold at OFSAA last year, it guaranteed LOSSA two entries this year, so despite losing the LOSSA final to Dunbarton, Wilson will be com- peting for a provincial title next week as well. We knew we were capable of winning LOSSA and things went well for us. We’re hoping to do very well at OFSAA this year. Our goal is to medal.

HoCkey Wakefield collects 200th NCAA career point BOSTON, MASS. -- Senior captain Jenn Wakefield of Pickering notched a hat trick and added an assist en route to collecting her 200th career point, as the No. 9 Boston University women’s hockey team routed New Hampshire, 9-1, in a Hockey East quarter-final round. BU will play second-seeded Boston Col- lege on Saturday, March 3 in the second Hockey East semifinal game in Hyannis, Mass. Providence and Northeastern will meet in the other semifinal contest. Wakefield became the second player in Hockey East Tournament history to record a hat trick and the first player to accom- plish that feat in the quarter-finals. She is also the second skater in league history to reach the 200-point plateau, joining Kelli Stack of Boston College. It was also a record-setting day for the Terriers, as they set a program best for most goals in a single postseason game. They also tallied three shorthanded goals, which is a Hockey East Tournament record. Wakefield completed her hat trick with a shorthanded goal at the 11:58 mark of the third. PI C K E R I N G PI C K E R I N G AD V E R T I S I N G F E A T U R E During these tough economic times, businesses need an affordable way to advertise their products and services and create a name for themselves in the community. The Focus on Business advertising feature was designed to help businesses succeed at an affordable price. The feature has five zones: Ajax, Pickering, Oshawa, Whitby and Clarington, and advertisers can choose to run in any number of them. If they want to target a specific area, they can choose one zone or if they want broad coverage they can choose to run in all five. Advertising packages are available for six weeks, 18 weeks, 36 weeks and 52 weeks, and discounted rates are available for longer- term commitments. “I have nothing but good things to say about the Focus on Business feature,” says Wayne Hutchison, owner of Durham Windows and Doors, who has been advertising in the feature for 15 years. Having an ad in the newspaper every week helps businesses build recognition. Readers who see the advertisement on a regular basis become familiar with the business. Running in the section long term shows potential customers that the business is consistent and is there for the long term. The feature includes a 3” wide by 1.5” deep ad, but the best part is the free editorial that comes with each six week run. The articles will talk in-depth about the business and can include a photograph or image. Many advertisers find that the articles provide a surge in phone calls and sales. The articles allow readers to learn more about the businesses, including detailed information about the products and services they offer. Many advertisers have seen a dramatic increase in their bottom line because of advertising in the section. For more information on the Focus on Business feature or to book an ad, please call Connie Baker at (905) 579-4400 ext. 2271 or email cbaker@durhamregion.com.

The Pickering resident was recently honoured by the OUA for her fine season, being named a second-team all-star. A five-foot-four centre, Small lit up the scoresheet this season for the Gryphons, finishing with 34 points to lead the team, and posting totals that were good enough for second in the entire league. In 26 games Small had 16 goals and 18 assists, finishing four points behind Queen’s forward Morgan McHaffie for top spot in the league and eight points up on Jessica Pinkerton for the team lead. Perhaps most impressive about her numbers is the fact Small was remark- ably consistent this season, scoring at least one point in all but five of Guelph’s regular season games. She never went more than one game without finding the scoresheet. Another highlight for Small was a sev- en-game point streak she had to open the season. In that span she managed seven goals and 14 points. Guelph finished the regular season in second place with an 18-6-2 record, but was upset in the first round of the play- offs by Windsor in two games, losing 3-2 and 1-0. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ma r c h 2 , 2 0 1 2 16 AP We Will Amaze You!
