But as the organization kicks off its 72nd campaign this year, mem- bers are shedding light on the ever-evolving face of need in the com- munity. “There’s an increasing need but there’s also a changing nature of the newly vulnerable,” says Bob Howard, campaign director for Unit- ed Way Durham. “Whether it’s because they’re seniors whose RRSPs aren’t as secure as they thought they would be or whether they’re students coming out of school with record levels of debt, you’ve got people in our community who are less secure now than they would have been 10 or 15 years ago.” United Way campaign underway Durham organization helps 50 local agencies provide essential services JASON LIEBREGTS / METROLAND OSHAWA -- The 68th United Way of Durham Region campaign launch was held last month in Oshawa. The organization supports 50 local charities including the John Howard Society.

Oshawa mayor expresses relief at peaceful conclusion to Whitby standoff REKA SZEKELY rszekely@durhamregion.com OSHAWA -- Oshawa’s City solicitor was back on the job Wednesday, a day after escaping from a kidnapper. Attorney David Potts was kidnapped on Monday at roughly 11:30 p.m. outside his Courtice home after returning from an Oshawa council meeting. Mayor Henry said he was informed at roughly 2 a.m. that Mr. Potts had escaped. A day-long police stand-off in Whitby followed where the man suspected in the kidnapping, believed to be former Oshawa councillor Robert Lutczyk, holed up in an auto-body shop on Hopkins Street. The man surrendered shortly after 5 a.m. on Wednesday morning. Mayor Henry expressed relief at the peaceful conclusion of the situation and complimented Durham police. “They did an excellent job and it ended without a loss of life and that was pretty amazing,” said the mayor. He said Mr. Potts is back to work and meeting with his staff, but asked for his privacy. The situation has prompted the City to reexamine its safety procedures. “We’re in discussion with our human resources department on how we’re going to deal with these kinds of issues,” said Mayor Henry. “Has this raised concerns? Yes. Are we working on something? Yes.” With respect to Mr. Lutczyk, who served as an Oshawa councillor from 1994 to 1997 and from 2003 to 2010, Mayor Henry said he asked staff if there was a current legal issue between him and the City. “You’ve got comments out there by members of the public that say this was caused by the City of Oshawa,” said the mayor. “I can tell you there’s no inter- action between the City of Oshawa and Robert Lutczyk at all and there’s nothing ongoing.” In the past, Mr. Lutczyk fought the City after his father was convicted of running an illegal boarding house, but that convic- tion was upheld in 2007 and is no longer before the courts. Mayor Henry said Mr. Lutczyk has not been to any council or committee meet- ings during the current term of coun- cil, but he saw him on social occasions, including in September at open house aboard the Ville de Quebec ship. “I didn’t notice any difference in behav- iour,” he said of Mr. Lutczyk at the time. The mayor said he was inundated with calls yesterday, especially after rumours swirled on Facebook that Mr. Lutczyk had taken his own life. Mayor Henry said he knew that was not the case after a con- versation with police. If it had been true, Mayor Henry said he was prepared to communicate it to the public. “During the course of the day I had conversations with people at the police department, including the chief.” The stand-off in Whitby prompted road closures in an industrial area of Whitby and area businesses owners and employ- ees were unable to go work during the duration of the standoff. Sources say Mr. Lutczyk was able to enter the auto-body shop because he had a key. As the standoff wore on Tuesday after- noon, the scene around the building was at the centre of intense police activity. Vehicles and personnel moved constant- ly, but with little sign of haste; on occasion an officer could be seen jogging from one command centre to another. Shortly after 9 p.m. on Tuesday, a woman identifying herself as a negotiator arrived at the scene of the stand-off between Mr. Lutczyk and Durham police. Police say the suspect surrendered peacefully at roughly 5 a.m., ending the roughly 27-hour standoff. Buy any lunch entree &get one fo r lesser or equal va lue 15 Church St .

LILI BALQUIS TM Charges following standoff include kidnapping and use of a firearm Jennifer O’Meara jomeara@durhamregion.com OSHAWA -- Facing a kidnapping charge, former Oshawa councillor Robert Lutc- zyk made his first appearance in court by video Wednesday, hours after a day-long standoff with police in Whitby had ended peacefully. Wearing a dark gray hoodie and look- ing tired but calm, Mr. Lutczyk heard his formal charges which include kid- napping, uttering threats, forcible con- finement, failing to stop for police, dan- gerous operation of a vehicle, use of a fire arm while committing an offence and pointing a fire arm. Kidnapping charges alone can carry a sentence of four years to life in prison. The dramatic events began when Oshawa solicitor David Potts was abducted after arriving at his Courtice home after a late council meeting. It ended when Mr. Lutczyk surrendered to police after being holed up for more than 24 hours in an auto-body shop on Hopkins Street in Whitby. In court, Mr. Lutczyk was ordered not to communicate with the Potts family. Family of Mr. Lutczyk was at the court for his appearance -- including his father Mitch Lutczyk, a 92-year-old decorated Polish Second World War veteran who used a walker to enter the courtroom, and adult daughter Tiffany Lutczyk. Ms. Lutczyk forwarded all questions to her father’s lawyer. “We’re not really sure what’s happen- ing now,” said Ms. Lutczyk. “I haven’t been able to speak to my dad.” Mr. Lutczyk is in the process of retain- ing Oshawa lawyer Sevag Yeghoyan who said he had not yet seen the details sur- rounding the allegations and was unable to comment. He said he knew Mr. Lutczyk from a previous non-criminal City matter and had spoken to his client by phone before the court appearance. “No injuries that I’m aware of ... He seems to be in good spirits. It doesn’t sound like he’s slept over the evening, so I assume he’s tired,” said Mr. Yeghoyan. Mr. Lutczyk was remanded in custody for a second bail hearing Thursday, Oct. 18. He is expected to appear in person. Mr. Lutczyk remains in police custody.

All content copyright When I first moved to Oshawa to start my journalism career, I had my first introduc- tion to autism. I had never heard about it until I met a family with several children, one of them a boy with autism. And I watched as his parents fought to have him educated in a regular school. It was eye-opening and inspiring. Over the decades, I’ve done stories on many issues but autism is one of those that struck a chord in me, partly because of that family and partly because I work in the communications field. People with autism struggle with commu- nication. Last year, in one of those connections I like to write about, I had the chance to work with Dur- ham Shoestring Performers and I got to pick the play I was interested in. I chose Lucy, by Damien Atkins, about a girl with autism and her estranged mother who is trying to come to terms with her daugh- ter’s behaviour and her own. The mother’s an archeologist, another draw for me. Lucy is an amazing play, told by Lucy herself, who shows us the person inside her mind in her narrations. The DSP production got rave reviews from those who saw it, especially for then-high school student Danika Allaive-Degarris who played Lucy and Joan Etienne who played her mother. Another connection. Just recently, I read loving anthony by Lisa Genova, a novel writ- ten in part from the perspective of a boy with autism. I wasn’t sure what to expect but I was blown away and in tears at the end as I read the story of a woman who is com- pelled to write a story about a fictional boy with autism, only to realize the boy was real and his grieving mother is a new friend. The story itself was moving but I particularly enjoyed the parts that focused on the boy. I have no idea how accurate it is, but it sure seems believable and makes you think about the person, not the disorder, just as Lucy did. I didn’t read loving anthony during October for this reason but it is Autism Awareness Month. You can learn more by con- tacting Autism Ontario Durham Region at http://www. autismontario.com/durham.

Police spent all of Tuesday and into the early morning Wednesday containing a Whitby scene where the suspect -- identified as former Oshawa Councillor Robert Lutczyk -- had bar- ricaded himself following the abduction of City of Oshawa solicitor David Potts. Durham police, tactical officers, support per- sonnel and negotiators converged on the War- ren Street autobody shop where the remainder of the drama unfolded throughout the day and into the night on Tuesday. But legitimate con- cerns are being raised about the tactics used by police in cordoning off such a large geographic area, and about the complete absence of infor- mation provided to local residents, area busi- nesses affected by the cordon and local media. Several vague references were made through- out the standoff to a ‘sensitive’ investigation, and precious little information was provided by law enforcement, resulting in wild specu- lations, inaccurate information being shared through social media, and growing frustration among affected business owners. For example, a message sent out via Twitter suggested that the suspect had shot himself. Another suggest- ed the Special Investigations Unit had arrived on scene, indicating some police interaction with the suspect. Neither message was true, but police did nothing to counter the speculations. Other concerns arise too. If, as police reportedly suspected, there were explosives on the site, why would they not pro- vide that information to explain why such a vast geographic area was blocked off? Why were no efforts made at creating detours a safe distance from the site to mitigate the impact on local businesses? Why wouldn’t police officials pro- vide updates to residents and business owners, or counter some of the inaccurate speculation that swirled throughout the day? By way of comparison, Peel Regional Police responded to a Tuesday shooting inside a large local shopping mall by sending out information to residents via Twitter immediately following the incident, and had an officer on the scene providing updates and accurate information on the shooting to inform its community. The Durham response to Tuesday’s lengthy stand- off fell far short of that of its sister police force, to the detriment of residents and businesses. Police, of course, must bring to bear all of the resources they need to contain such incidents, and the safety of officers and innocent bystand- ers is paramount. But that shouldn’t preclude a professional responsibility to inform residents, or to explain the circumstances and decisions taken, or to counter inaccuracies and rumour and speculation that only serves to inspire fear, confusion and still more speculation. Responding quickly to crime and dealing effectively with suspects is an integral compo- nent of police work, but so too is the responsi- bility to keep residents informed, to ease their concerns, to tell them the score. This could be done without hindering the investigation. Durham police failed residents in this case. 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 • Oc t o b e r 1 8 , 2 0 1 2 6 AP 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 • Oc t o b e r 1 8 , 2 0 1 2 7 AP Long & McQuade Musical Instrumentsand Music Lesson Centre Long &McQuade Musical Instruments NOW OPEN IN PICKERING 1887 Kingston Road, 905.686.4900 Sales / Rentals / Repairs / Lessons / In-Store Financing 10 am to 6 pm10 t 6 JOIN US FOR OURGRAND OPENINGON SAT.

Last year, the organization raised about $3.9 million to help fund 50 local agencies, including the John Howard Society, Distress Centre Durham and Simcoe Hall Settlement House. “The landscape has changed out there but (United Way) continues to offer a positive, proactive and cohesive approach to some extraordinarily complex issues that are swirl- ing around us today,” says Mr. Howard. In addition to providing the staples -- food, shelter and clothing -- the organization also allocates funding to address mental health issues, provide counselling solutions and other much-needed services. “In these times, where there is so much need and so (many) rapid changes going on, there are some things being done at the community level that are very important and should continue to be done,” says Mr. Howard, encouraging Durham residents to donate to the cause if they can. A key component of United Way’s commit- ment to its donors is the assurance that their money will be utilized both efficiently and effectively at a local level, he adds. “Our greatest strength is that all the money raised by the Durham United Way stays in Durham and I think that resonates with peo- ple.” For more information, visit www.united- waydr.com. fast facts Agencies funded through United Way Durham Bethesda House Big Brothers Big Sisters North Durham Region Big Brothers Big Sisters of Ajax-Pickering Big Brothers Big Sisters of Clarington Big Brothers Big Sisters of Oshawa-Whitby Boys’ and Girls’ Club of Durham Catholic Family Services of Durham Community Care Durham Community Development Council Durham Community Living Cornerstone Community Association Durham Inc.

Last week, after the Whitby shelter had closed for the day, a box, containing two, eight- week-old kittens, was placed in front of the facility. “It had rained overnight so by the time we found them the next morning, they were drenched and freezing cold,” says shelter president Karin Martens. One of the kittens died shortly after and the other had to be put down. A veterinarian confirmed that both kittens had also suffered neurological damage due to possible exposure to spot-on flea treatment typically used on dogs. The incident is yet another example of irresponsible pet ownership that shelter staff wit- nesses on a regular basis. “We’re doing the best we can and we have enough heartache to deal with so to see this sort of thing happen to these poor little defenceless animals is extreme- ly upsetting,” Ms. Martens says. In August, the Durham Humane Society launched a low-cost spay and neuter assis- tance program in response to the influx of cats being dropped off at the shelter. Qualified applicants can now have their cat spayed for $100 or neutered for $80 -- a dramatic reduction from the average cost of the procedures that range between $300 to $500. So far, nearly 100 cats across the community have been spayed and neutered as a result of the initiative, which includes the participation of 42 veteri- nary practices in the region. “Everybody who’s coming in is so happy that they’re able to do this and we’re just so thrilled to provide it for them because it is so very important,” says Ms. Martens. The goal of the program is to not only spread awareness about the importance of spay- ing and neutering animals but also save many of them from a tragic fate, Ms. Martens adds. “Those kittens died a horrible, horrible death ... we want peo- ple to do the responsible thing and have their cats spayed or neutered in the first place so hopefully it won’t lead to that.” Kittens die after being abandoned outside Durham humane shelter Are you eligible for the low-cost spay/neuter program? Under the Ontario Veterinary Medical Association’s Farley Foundation eligi- bility criteria, pet owners must fall into one of the four categories: - Seniors receiving the Federal Guar- anteed Income Supplement - Disabled individuals receiving the Ontario Disability Support Payment or the Canada Pension Plan Disability Payment - Participants of OVMA’s SafePet Pro- gram or women at risk of abuse who are entering a registered women’s shelter in Ontario - Pets in care facilities for seniors such as supportive housing, retirement homes or long-term care homes in Ontario - Individuals receiving financial assis- tance through the Ontario Works pro- gram fast facts > Durham District School Board to host 10 evening events DURHAM -- Local Aboriginal students are invited to some special events full of culturally inspired activities throughout this school year.

Ontario government going to court over unpopular legislation DURHAM -- Ontario teachers unions are taking the Province to court over new legislation they say violates the fundamental rights of Ontario workers. The Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontar- io announced recently that the union represent- ing 76,000 elementary public teachers and edu- cation professionals, along with other teacher unions, has filed a court challenge against the Ontario government’s Bill 115. It’s been more than a month since the Liberal government passed the legislation when local bargaining units and school boards couldn’t reach agreements. The bill includes wage freez- es, pay cuts and cutting teacher sick days, but it’s the bargaining rights the ETFO is fighting for. The government claims it tried for months without luck to conduct bargaining with the provincial teachers’ unions, and imposed the law in the end to protect the wage freeze and labour peace. 300threadcount 425threadcount IMPORTANT CUSTOMERINFORMATION:SELECTION&BRANDSWILL VARYBYSTORE:Allcolours,patternsandstylesmaynotbeavailableinallstores.RAINCHECKSANDSUBSTITUTIONS:If anadvertised item is not yet availablewewill offeryouyourchoiceof acomparable substitution,(ifavailable),or araincheck.Insomeinstances (e.g.specialpurchases,power buys,clearanceitems,bonus withpurchaseorseasonalitems)quantitiesmay be limited,selectionmayvarybystoreandsubstitutesorraincheckscannotbegiven.HomeOutfittersreservestherighttolimit quantities.■9.3 H12 All referencestoregular price are to HomeOutfitters’regular price product and doesnotincludealreadyreduced,clearance,smartbuysanditemswith.98priceendingsunlessotherwisespecified.Allprices in effect Friday,October19ththroughThursday,October25th,2012,unless otherwisespecified.

That is the strength and backbone of democracy in Canada,” said ETFO president Sam Hammond. According to the release, similar challenges are also being filed by the Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation, Canadian Union of Public Employees Ontario, and the Ontario Public Service Employees Union. Lawyers for the groups hope to have the challenges heard together by the court. Mr. Hammond said the Charter guarantees the right of people to organize, engage in collective bargaining and withdraw services to advance workplace goals. Teachers at a number of elementary and high schools have chosen to scrap extracurricular activities, which has prompted students to stage protest walkouts and rallies. -- With files from the Toronto Star Teacher unions launch court challenge> DURHAM -- A Durham police officer seriously injured in a two-car collision while off duty in August has been charged with impaired driving. Investigators charged the officer Thursday following an inves- tigation into a crash at the intersection of Lakeridge and Taunton roads in Whitby on Aug. 29. Police said at the time of the incident alcohol was suspected as a contributing factor. Matthew McLaughlin, 29, of Lindsay, is charged with impaired driving and driving while exceeding the legal blood alco- hol limit. He is to appear in court in Oshawa in November. Constable McLaughlin has served four years with Durham police and is stationed in the North Division, the service said. Police said Const. McLaughlin’s 2012 Kia was eastbound on Taunton at about 9 p.m. when it collided with a Mercedes SUV that was northbound on Lakeridge Road. The officer had to be extricated from his vehicle and sus- tained serious injuries. The driver of the Mercedes, a 37-year-old Ajax man, wasn’t injured, police said.

MARGARET CARNEY I have a great Thanksgiving story I want to share, involving good friends, the Niagara Escarpment and some very special reunions. Last Tuesday, the day after Thanksgiving, a dear old friend I hadn’t seen in 30 years came for a visit. That’s what happens when folks move to Vancouver, 3,000 miles away across this vast, beautiful country: you seldom see them again. I picked him up at the Oshawa GO station, where it took us 10 minutes to recognize each other. Only when the flood of other passengers had hurried off and we were the last two people left on the platform did I approach this strang- er with a suitcase and say, “Andy?” After that we didn’t stop talking for four days. He was eager to see several mutual friends, and a whirl- wind car trip took us and another friend from Rice Lake to the Hockley Valley to Orillia, via hilly back roads lined with glori- ous fall colours. Amidst the feasting, laughing and visiting, a lot of stories were told and memories recounted of times gone by, adventures we’d had, canoe trips we’d taken when we were all a lot younger and more limber. En route, as part of the “magical mystery tour” we stopped off at a farm we all knew and loved. Andy had lived there for several years, as farm manager, and other friends and I had helped out often, learning about organic gardening in the process. High atop the Niagara Escarpment, it had never been great farmland, and much of it was growing up to forest again, the Bruce Trail running through it. With a great deal of nostalgia we walked the land, recalling where we’d planted potatoes, onions, raspberries, apple trees. “Remember the old beech trees?” I asked as we climbed over the highest ridge and started down to the woodlot. Amid white pines and sugar maples there used to be a small grove of ancient American beech, dense gnarly trees covered with smooth silver bark, their trunks a metre thick. Magical trees at the heart of a magical woods. Andy did, and we set off to find them, heading by instinct down the north flank of the hill. At one point he wanted to veer right, but I kept us on course, and suddenly, through a wall of orange leaves, saw a dark stub looming: the exoskeleton of an ancient beech, carved by pileated woodpeckers into an Ontario totem. Another one nearby had broken off shoulder high and was hollow inside, like an ancient caldron. But not far off was a midsize beech in perfect health, a descendant of the old ones, and several slim young beech- es reaching toward the sky, a silvery presence. We knew we wouldn’t be around when they grew into giants, but the reunion was a special one. Nature queries: mcarney@interlinks.net or 905-725-2116. Durham outdoors writer Margaret Carney has more than 3,000 species on her life list of birds, seen in far-flung corners of the planet. Reunion leads to magical mystery tour Better for their health, and for the birds KRISTEN CALIS kcalis@durhamregion.com I was sad to see a dead cat on the road in Oshawa one morn- ing this week. It got me thinking about how important it is to keep cats indoors, and there are a number of reasons, according to the Nova Scotia Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Ani- mals. They can: get hit by a car; get lost and never be found; get attacked by dogs, wildlife or other cats; and face angry property owners who don’t appreciate cats in their yard or garden. A side note: people have been known to do nasty things such as poison cats that go to the bathroom on their lawn. Other possible hazards awaiting your outdoor cat include: contracting diseases such as feline leukemia or rabies; pick- ing up fleas, ticks or other parasites; getting sick from eating garbage, poisons, rodents, birds or toxic plants; exposure to frostbite in winter and dehydration in summer; and injury or death from crawling under or inside the hood of a car. Second Chance Wildlife Sanctuary in Pickering lists traps, antifreeze dangers and intentional harm by humans as more reasons to keep them inside. It’s sick but true that some human beings perform sadistic rituals on them, espe- cially around Halloween. Cats also kill a huge amount of birds across North Ameri- ca. So here are some tips to keep indoor cats happy: provide scratching posts or boxes; give them a place to perch up high, such as a couch by the window or a cat tree; set up a bird feeder they can view from a window; play with them but don’t get frustrated if you have to try a few different toys until they’re happy; adopt a second cat to give them a pal; clean your cat’s litter daily and make sure there’s one litter box per cat; give them cat grass; or even train them to use a leash and harness. If you choose to turn your outdoor cat into an indoor cat, the best time to do so is in late fall when the outside world is less exciting to them. Once you make the decision to keep your cat inside, stick to it and be prepared to endure their persistent meows. This is one true example of tough love. Keep cats indoors... and out of harm’s way> SportsSports Brad Kelly- Sports Editor • bkelly@durhamregion.com Pickering relies on team chemistry to stage comeback BRAD KELLY bkelly@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- For the Pickering Pirates, it went a lot deeper than the usual suspects of hitting, defence and pitching to get to their first-ever Ontario Senior Baseball Association championship. Team chemistry and a sense of pride were major factors in the team rallying from a 2-0 deficit to the York Diamonds, and winning the best-of-five champion- ship series with three victories in a row, the final two in a doubleheader at York’s Centennial Park on Saturday. “One thing I’m very happy and proud of is our team chemistry,” said manager Phil Lacombe. “The core of our team have played together for so long. “I think that’s something that differen- tiates us and something that helped us when we were down 2-0 in the cham- pionship series. I wanted to win that championship because I wanted my best friends who I play baseball with to expe- rience it.” After falling in the first two games of the series by scores of 11-4 and 7-4, the Pirates put together a three-game win- ning streak at the right time, turning the series around with a 12-5 win in Game 3, followed by 2-1 and 3-2 decisions in games four and five. Tom Malyk pitched the Pirates to victo- ry in the third game to extend the series. Pitcher Brad Binns influenced the result in the final two games, going the distance in the Game 4 win of 2-1, then getting the save for starter Will Mariani in the fifth and deciding 3-2 game. In the bottom of the seventh and final inning of Game 5, with the Pirates cling- ing to a one-run lead and York runners on first and second with two out, Binns got one of the best players in the league, Steve Foley, to hit a fly ball to right fielder Romeo Persaud to end the game. Persaud, who is the team’s captain and has been with the club since 1995, said a nine-game winning streak heading into the playoffs helped the Pirates build some momentum, finishing the regular season with a 16-9-1 record and grabbing the third seed in the Eastern Conference. “We knew we weren’t the best team, but we were definitely playing the best base- ball going in and we were just trying to build on that and keep it going,” he said. In other years the team has had a strong start to the season, but faded when it got closer to the playoffs, added Lacombe. This season, as an underdog, the team revelled in the role. “Unlike other years, we’ve done well out of the gate at the beginning of the year and became a little complacent later in the season. Not playing meaningful games meant that twice we lost in the early rounds of the playoffs.” On the way to the championship series, the Pirates beat the Port Hope River Rats 2-0, the Port Hope Flyers 2-1, and the No. 1-seeded Whitby Chiefs 2-1 in the Eastern Conference championship series, earn- ing the right to face the Western Confer- ence champions from York. The win in the deciding game over York turned the tables on the team’s previous results in the championship series. In both 2008 and 2010 the Pirates reached the final, only to lose both times in the fifth and deciding game. >First title for Pirates SUBMITTED PHOTO PICKERING -- The Pickering Pirates won the Ontario Senior Baseball Association championship, rallying from being down two games to zero to beat the York Diamonds 3-2 in the best-of-five final series.

Hosting the Leaside Wildcats on Tues- day night at the Ajax Community Cen- tre, the Marchment sisters put on a show, accounting for all four goals in a 4-0 vic- tory. It was the younger of the sisters, Kenne- dy, who shone brightest with three goals, while Carly chipped in with one for the Lightning. “Kennedy is a goal scorer and that’s what she does and that’s what we expect her to do,” said head coach Wayne McDonald. The hat trick by Kennedy gives her a team-leading five goals in five games, tied with her sister with five points each, with Carly’s point totals coming on four goals and one assist. The team leader in points with seven, Laura Horwood, had three assists in Tuesday’s win. The Lightning dominated the game, outshooting Leaside 36-12 on the night. “It could have been seven or eight noth- ing,” said McDonald of the dominating performance. “Their goalie played well and we hit a couple of goal posts. The girls played well.” Another bright spot was the play of goaltender Kassidy Sauve, who pitched a shutout to earn her first win with the team. “It was extremely important to get her a win,” said McDonald of the confidence boost it will give the rookie netminder. “She played well. She deserved some bet- ter results in her first two games.” Despite going winless in those two starts, Sauve has a 2.01 average and sparkling .914 save percentage in three games. The Lightning hadn’t played a league game since Sept. 30, but have been busy. At a showcase tournament in Toron- to over the weekend they recorded four wins and a tie against American teams in a Can-Am challenge format. With a 3-2-0 record, the Lightning will host Barrie on Saturday at 8:30 p.m., then travel to Burlington for a game on Sun- day at noon. 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 • Oc t o b e r 1 8 , 2 0 1 2 21 AP 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 • Oc t o b e r 1 8 , 2 0 1 2 22 AP Bronze at nationals SYDNEY, NOVA SCOTIA -- Four soccer players from Durham Region returned home from the women’s U18 Canadian nation- al soccer championships with bronze medals as members of Team Ontario. The players are Cassandra Sribny and Alessia Marzilli of Pickering, McKenzie Brauer of Ajax and Tamara Brown from Whitby. In the first match Team Ontar- io/Richmond Hill Raiders won 5-0 over New Brunswick. Sribny and Marzilli both had a goal each, with Brown setting up Sribnys, and Brauer holding the defence steady. In their second match, it was a 1-1 tie with Alberta. In the third game the team blanked Labador 1-0, with Sribny scoring the winning goal on a set-up from Brown. In the fourth and final game against the host Nova Sco- tia, Ontario won 1-0 to finish the round with three wins and one tie. Ontario and Alberta were tied with 10 points each after the four matches in the group. Ontario had eight goals for and one against, while Alberta had a 9-2 differ- ential. This left both teams tied again. When the next tie-breaker went to goals for, this gave Alberta the advantage by one goal to play in the gold medal game against Saskatchewan. Ontario played for the bronze medal against Quebec. Ontario won 1-0 on a goal by Sribny. Brauer and her defenders were solid all week, only allowing one single goal against in the cham- pionships, while Sribny, Marzilli and Brown generated the offence scoring and assisting on goals for the championships. In the gold medal game, Sas- katchewan edged Alberta 1-0. Sribny, Marzilli, Brown and Brauer have all been offered university/college scholarships while playing for and represent- ing Team Ontario/Richmond Hill Raiders this season.

AJAX -- Ajax Swimming’s Robert Gilchrist has opened the new season much in the same way he finished the previous one, with two major team selections at the provincial and national levels. The 17-year-old Whitby resi- dent was first selected to the 2012 Swimming Canada Long Course ID team based on his performances this past summer in the 100m and 200m freestyle. Swimming Canada uses ID teams in order to identify poten- tial future senior international team members and to deter- mine the allocation of funding and coach/athlete support. Swimming Canada’s junior national head coach Ken McK- innon explains the goal of the program is “to provide Cana- da’s identified swimmers and their coaches, the development opportunities to establish the will, attitude and skills required to race to the podium at the senior international level.” Several days later Gilchrist was named to the second stage for hopefuls of the Swim Ontar- io Canada Games roster. As each province begins to ramp up their efforts heading into the 2013 Canada Games in Sherbrooke, Quebec, Swim Ontario invites a progressive- ly smaller group of athletes to a three stage training camp. After being named to stage one, which took place last January, Gilchrist has now made the cut for stage two. This camp will run over three days just before Christmas and will feature the top 18 and under swimmers in the province. After making seven teams last season, Gilchrist has already established a tremendous pace for the 2012-13 season. With Gilchrist’s recent selec- tions, Ajax Swimming head coach Matt Bell has reached a total of 40 national and pro- vincial athlete selections since 2006. Two more team selections for Ajax Swimming’s Gilchrist 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 • Oc t o b e r 1 8 , 2 0 1 2 23 AP Ajax & Pickering Locations 279 Kingston Rd. E.

Wilson Gators, run- ning smoothly at a perfect 4-0. TIER ONE SENIOR Donald A. Wilson (4-0) 42, Pickering (0-4) 12 Andrew Smith and George Papadakos each scored two touchdowns to lead the Gators. The Trojans, scoring their first points of the season, reached the house twice in the third quarter with majors by Tyree Burke and Brent Shepherd (62-yard punt return). TIER TWO SENIOR J. Clarke Richardson (1-2) 8, Uxbridge (0-2) 7 A single point by Collin Cro- zier was the difference as the Storm posted a narrow 8-7 win over Uxbridge. Both teams were seeking their first win of the sea- son. Crozier also added a con- vert on a touchdown by Tashaun Brady-Mclarty. Callen Hagemen reached the house for Uxbridge with Ryan Lavrench adding the convert. St. Mary (2-0) 50, Notre Dame (1-2) 0 St. Mary has opened the sea- son with back-to-back shutout victories. Raishaun Provo and Josh Henry both scored a pair of touchdowns to lead the Mon- archs. First place will be on the line this week as St. Mary visits the Ajax Rams, who also have not yielded a point. TIER ONE JUNIOR Pickering (4-0) 14, Donald A. Wilson (1-3) 12 Touchdowns by Darnell Jar- rett and Keason Bennett gave Pickering the win. Daiten Rhone’s touchdown reception in the final two minutes pulled the Gators to within two, however the two- point convert attempt failed. Jor- dan Grimes, prior to leaving with an injury, staked Wilson to an early lead. TIER TWO JUNIOR J. Clarke Richardson (4-0) 40, Uxbridge (0-4) 24 The Storm, riding a four-touch- down performance by James Yoshida, remain undefeated. Through four games, Richard- son’s high octane offence has posted 113 points. Meanwhile Erich Milne had three touch- downs in a losing effort. Ajax (2-1) 26, O’Neill (1-3) 13 Trey Humes returned after missing last weeks loss to St. Ste- phen’s and recorded his second three-touchdown effort of the season. Zachary White (touch- down) and Mitchell Van Pelt (two-point convert) rounded out the Rams scoring. Isaiah Motely with back-to-back, two-touch- down games and Julio Oliveros (convert) replied for O’Neill. Jason Liebregts / MetroLand PICKERING -- Notre Dame’s Regan Turner was tackled by St.Mary’s Teyas Yew Woon and Chris Deminico in Tier II senior boys’ football action at St. Mary Catholic Secondary School. Semeniuk a hit as Lords fastball team enters record books OSHAWA -- The Durham Lords enter the OCAA championships boasting arguably the best offence in team and league history. Following a two-game sweep of the Seneca Sting Monday night, the Lords closed out the 2012 women’s fastball regular sea- son breaking three OCAA team records, one each for runs scored, hits and RBI. Durham’s offence totaled 177 runs, 198 hits and 143 RBI in 15 games this season, all new OCAA benchmarks. A big reason behind the club’s success was the bat of Ajax native Melissa Semeniuk, who was sim- ply outstanding from start to fin- ish this season. Semeniuk, a second-year Lord and former Notre Dame Catho- lic Secondary School athlete, col- lected league-record 31 hits on the season, eclipsing the old high mark of 25, which was set by two other players including ex-Lords star Erin Dewey. Semeniuk closed out the season on Monday going 5-for-8 in a dou- bleheader against Seneca, knock- ing in seven runs in the process. Also a member of the Lords’ women’s volleyball team, Semeni- uk had a .544 season average that left her third in the OCAA behind Lords teammate Samantha Bry- ant-Officer (.562) and Humber’s Jessica O’Quinn, who was tops with a stunning .591 mark. Durham won those two afore- mentioned games by counts of 19-1 and 18-0 over Seneca. Lydia Kalbfleisch and Kristine Miles earned the victories on the mound for Durham, combining to allow only seven hits through- out the doubleheader, while the offence was in tune from the first swing, managing a whopping 34 hits over the two games. Durham’s first-place finish with a mark of 14-1, a game ahead of the Humber Hawks, gave the pro- gram its 15th first-place finish in the last 16 seasons. The OCAA championships open on Friday at Seneca College with the Lords facing the host Sting in the first round of action. subMitted photo OSHAWA -- Ajax native Melissa Semeniuk, third baseman for the Durham Lords women’s fastball team, set an OCAA record for hits in a single season this year, collecting 31 to lead the Lords to a 14-1 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 • Oc t o b e r 1 8 , 2 0 1 2 24 AP Discover a Richer, More Rewarding Future DISCOVER IMPROVEACHIEVE 1-888-806-1856 Call Today!
