Last week, a couple of crucial games may have set the tone as 2 at:Mt. Castlegar. Last Thursday at Kinnaird park, the Labatt's Blucs upset Banjo’s Pub 8-2 to kecp the pace and are now only two points behind Nelson, The Blues play the Athletics tonight, in what amounts to a four-point: game for the winner, The Merchants, As, ‘and Banjo’s still have to’ play six games while Salmo and Labatt's have seven remaining. “When any team in this league arrives at the ball park they expect to win,” said Blues’ player-coach Pete Evdokimoff. ‘‘Banjo’s didn’t have their starting line-up but they are a very well-rounded team.” “Our season has been troubled by injuries,” said Evdokimoff. His team has had four starting players suffer season-ending injuries during the course of this season. Rod Grietchin, Donny Desch- ene, Brent Heric and Tony Cooper are all out for the year said 3- field to move within two points of - Evdokimoff, - Y She still in thick fora second place; finish, they just want to play ball i and aren't following the standings He said although his team is), {We come out to play and where we end up is where we end up.” team.

Banjo’: ’s losses came to the A six-team fastball tournament in Salmo over the weekend’may have foreshadowed things to come in the regular season of the Castlegar Commercial Fastball c. The Nelson Athletics beat the Castlegar Merchants in the finals while a team of Salmo and Labatt’s players finished third. Banjo's, the other CCFL team, ended up tied for last with the Slocan Braves from the Slocan Valley Fastball league. Another Valley team, the Royals, wound and As—two teams which are fighting for second place in regular league play. Banjo’s has already locked up first after winning 13 of their first fourteen games. However, they've now lost three in a row albeit two were only exhibition. “We couldn’t get things together,” said Banjo’s catcher Jim Nazaroff. “We had guys on base but we just couldn't bring them in.” Nazaroff said his team has to start getting back to basics and practising harder. SUN STAFF PHOTO / Jim Zeeben “Tt could be we're over confi- dent,” he said. “Maybe every body does think we already have first place wrapped up (and have stopped playing as hard). “We couldn't get it together...” — Jim Nazaroff Banjo's Pub catcher According to Nazaroff, a lot of teams have also been hit by the “holiday crunch,” Players with kids just coming out of school are taking off on vacations and leav- - ing holes in the team rosters. “Everybody's missing play- ers,” said Nazaroff. “Near the end of the season we'll start getting them back.” Banjo’s early season. success will allow them to finish first—, it’s now just a question of by how much, Labatt’s, Nelson and Castlegar all look to have a shot at second place. Meanwhile, last place Salmo doesn’t appear ready to. turn their fortunes around. “We'll” be right along the same as we've been all year,” said Salmo's Al Waterstreet. Bike race no fun Local mountain bike racer Matt Scott got another taste of competi- - tion in the United States-on-June -- 22/23 at Kellog, Idaho. Scott how- * ever, found the race to be tougher than the previous competition at Sandpoint, Idaho, June 8/9. Scott raced in the 18 years and under, junior sportsman category this time rather than his usual choice of racing in the novice class. “I got a DNF (did not finish), in the cross-country,” said Scott. “Tt was too long, each lap was 22 kilometres and we had to do two laps. I finished one and that was enough for me.” 4 “There were big rocks all over the-course and -it was. cither . straight up or straight down,” he said. “It wasn't very fun.” Scott managed however, to place third in the trials race, sec- ond in the slalom and third in the 16 kilometre downhill, “Other than the cross-country, it was great,” he said. “One thing that helps is the fact that Ernie Berger checks the bike out before each race as technical support, it’s part of the sponsorship from Castlegar Bicycle and Sport shop and Rocky Mountain.’ CASTLEGAR MINOR HOCKEY requires coaches and team man- agers for the upcoming season.’|} Deadline for rep coaches is July 14, 1991.
