Campaign winds up for pre-atom ‘hawks The season came to an end this past Sunday for Village Foods’ Sooke Seahawks Pre Atom football team. The wind-up came at MacAdam field in Duncan. The ferocious Cowichan Bulldogs came out chomping and snarling their way to a first possession touchdown – quickly followed by a jet-like, swerving run by Simon Herold tying the game at 6.
Touchdowns were traded over the next two possessions, Sooke’s being a weaving run by speedster Ben Power – again the MVP of the game. The ‘dogs pounced on a Seahawk fumble and scored on the next play. In the second half Sooke’s amazing quarterback and offensive player of the game, LouisPhilipe Gagnon swept
and tossed with a finishing run by gritty wingback and fleet-footed Kieran Franklin. The major was followed by a two-point screen pass conversion done to perfection to “stickyhands” Ben Power. There was many a good run by B-back Spencer Logan again carrying two or three ‘dogs nipping at his heels. Spencer also made many a good tackle and received
defensive player of the game honours. The Defense was led by our always solid and powerful centre and team captain Jacob Lamontagne, aided by Josh Danielson, Caleb Carrier, Manny Ratcliffe. In the end the Sooke boys dropped a 33-21 decision to the up-Island ‘dogs. This brought to an end a great season. Many thanks to our sponsor Scott Logan

The co-ed “Sooke Dyna-Mites” fastball team played June 4-5 at Ambassador Park in Lake Hill. Three games on Saturday saw two wins versus the other Sooke team and Central Saanich, and a one run loss to gold medal winner Lake Hill. Going into the playoff round as third seed, they defeated Cordova Bay, and had a tough 13-11 loss to silver-medalist Langford. They played in the bronze medal game against Gordon Head. Going into the bottom of the second down 10-2, they allowed only two more runs and stormed back for a 15-12 victory to claim the bronze medal. This was a fantastic result from their first tournament. Thank you to all of the parents for doing the score-keeping, helping with the kids and providing boisterous encouragement that made this tournament a success. Players are Alex Perman, Tommy Hueston, Dylan Wylie, Kylie Katz, Olivia Cavanaugh, Lindsay Hornsby, Trevor Ell, Adrian Bealing, Angela Haddad, Nyla Morton, Daniel Prissick and John Richardson.
