Sarnia Legionnaire playmaking ace Shawn Waldie was the big star at the annual Jr. 'B' Prospects Game last night.

Waldie was the top scorer on either side, picking up four assists as players mostly from the Greater Ontario Junior Hockey League's Western Conference defeated a team consisting of performers from the league's Midwest and Golden Horseshoe conferences by a 9-5 count.

Two other Legionnaires were also in the contest and both did well. In fact, goalie Kyle Washer was credited with the win, while Sarnia captain Tyler Cicchini had an assist.

The game, which is for student athletes who are NCAA eligible, was heavily scouted by American colleges.

Waldie made his name as a smooth passer last year when he led the Lambton Shores Predators in points with nine goals and 34 assists. After joining the Legionnaires this campaign, the Sarnia native has picked up eight goals and 16 assists, good enough for sixth place in team scoring, despite the fact that he has only played 25 of the club's 39 games.

Cicchini, a left-winger, has 15 goals and 13 assists in 34 games. His regular season goal total to date matches his entire output last season.

Washer has played more minutes than any other Sarnia goalie this year, something fans may not be aware of because Jesse Raymond has received more starts at home in recent weeks. In all, Washer has played 1,164 minutes, posting a 3.30 goals against average. His save percentage is .912.
