SO-SO PICS. SORRY
LOUSY LIGHTING.

Sunday night the Waxers once again allowed the Raiders to spring out to an early two-goal advantage, this time they didn't wait as long to storm back to even the score. Despite outplaying the Raiders for much of the middle frame and early in the third the Waxers weren't able to capitalize.

The Raiders broke out with two goals before the midway point of the first and then the Waxers returned the favour. Steve Nobili made a nice feed from behind the net to a wide open Paul Robinson in the slot to cut the deficit in half. Jason Young also assisted on the goal.

Three minutes later on a powerplay, Kevin Tompkins carried the puck down the left wing and made a picture perfect feed to Jesse Boucher who broke right down the gut to the goal and caught the pass, redirecting it by the Raider keeper for the equalizer. Jimmy Ball had the second assist.

The second period was less than an ideal exhibition of basic fundamental hockey. Both clubs were sloppy at times and when their were scoring chances both keepers were equal to the task.

The third period saw the Waxers with several near misses but it was not to be this evening as the Raiders scored three times to even the best of seven game South Division semi-final series at a game apiece.

The loss was just the Waxers third since the New Year and now brings their "2001 record" to 13-2-1-1 (W-L-T-OTL). The Waxers look to bounce back Tuesday night as game three goes at the pond in Scarborough at 7:30pm.
