1967/68 Paris Mounties Intermediate Inter-County Champions

1998 Honouree Team, Hockey

1967 Paris MountiesThe 1967/68 Paris Mounties semifinal games against Dundas was a hard fought, rivalry-ridden series. Coach Wally Kalichuk’s plan to have Paul Sales shadow Dundas' leading scorer worked well and, in the final deciding game, Dundas fell apart taking unnecessary penalties. Of course, it did not help that Dundas had to listen to 2,000 cheering Mounties fans at the Syl Apps Arena.

The finals against Woodstock were just as tough, but the Mounties prevailed taking the deciding game to win the Inter-County 1967/68 Junior C League. The team went on to play New Hamburg for the All-Ontario title, but sadly came up short.
