W@ Rejuvenated juniors win
three straight under new head
coach Gord Walker

Ed Mills
SPORTS EDITOR

Just when fans were getting ready
to exercise the Castlegar Rebels’ right
to die and pull the plug on the junior
team, the Rebels awoke.

If not totally alive and well, the
Rebels are atleast kick- f
ing in the Kootenay In-
ternational~ Junior
Hockey League.

They proved it last
night in Beaver Valley
with a 6-5 overtime win
over the West Division
leading Nite Hawks.

And they proved it
last weekend by beating
the Nite Hawks and
East Division leading
Spokane Braves in
back-to-back games at
the Community Com-
plex.

The wins ended the
team’s horrendous 11-
game losing streak and
give new coach Gord

Gord Walker

spite missing four regulars from the
lineup, including second team KIJHL
all-star Chris Sannutti.

Ross said some of the credit for the
Rebels’ wins has to go to Kevin Koor-
batoff, who worked hard at getting the
team in shape in his winless seven-
game stint as coach of the club.

But Walker is undoubtedly the cat-
alyst of the revitalized Rebels, he said.

“Gordie, himself, is a really ener-
getic type of guy and I think: it’s sort of
rubbing off. He’s so energetic that I,

personally, just get

out there and I just

want to go go go,”
aid.

feel the team is re-
sponding to him.

“The whole key to
success is their work
ethic, and they proved
to me that they’re
ready to work hard
every shift. They did
really well and they
should be proud of
themselves,” Walker
said

Walker said there
was no question the
Rebels needed a jump
start.

Walker a perfect record
since he took over the club last Thurs-
day.

Team captain Corey Ross said it’s
like the team has been pumped with a
1000 volts.

“We're more excited, more energetic
and things just feel alive more than
normal,” Ross said.

Ross said ‘this may be the turn
around the club and the fans have
been waiting for all season.

“It could be. In the dressing room it
feels absolutely great, it’s so positive
in there now, it’s unbelievable.”

Mike Hunter completed his hat
trick with the overtime winner for the
Rebels, while Kevin Dewar had two
goals and Derek Lalonde the other.

The Rebels beat the Nite Hawks de-

“They needed a

change and myself walking in there
was maybe the change they needed.
But whether it was me or somebody
else, I think they needed someone to
work hard for.”
_ Sannutti and Kevin Nisse were in
the stands last night serving the first
game of three-game suspensions each
were handed for separate spearing in-
cidents against the Nite Hawks in Sat-
urday’s game.

“Dustin Rilcof was out of the Rebels
lineup with a knee injury, while Jason
Switzer, who just joined the club last
weekend, was recalled by the Vernon
Lakers, the Rebels’ parent club in the
BCJHL.

The Rebels play Friday in Nelson
against the Maple Leafs.
