Alumni Group helps celebrate Lincolns’ scoring milestone

By Pat Payton, Alumni Group secretary

The St. Marys Lincolns Alumni Group helped celebrate a Lincs’ scoring milestone this past Friday night at the PRC.

The Lincolns and the Alumni Group honoured Chase MacQueen-Spence on-ice, just before a GOHL game against LaSalle Vipers. The Lincs’ captain recently picked up his 184th point to become the new all-time modern-day points leader with the Lincolns — moving past Sean Consitt (2009-2013) who finished his Lincs’ career with 183 points.Β 

Joined by family members on the ice, MacQueen-Spence was presented with a framed newspaper page of Chase setting the new record.Β 

The skilled centreman was also given an Alumni Life Membership and a card from the Alumni Group congratulating him on his recent feat. Making the presentation on behalf of the Alumni committee was Rick Fifield. Fifield was the all-time points leader in the now-defunct Western Jr. β€˜B’ Hockey League for 39 years. From 1970 to 1973, the talented right winger collected an amazing 405 points, including 230 goals.

MacQueen-Spence, meanwhile, now has 79 goals, 109 assists and 188 points following weekend action. The 20-year-old from Lambeth received another honour last Friday when he was presented with the Quadro Communications Player-of-the-Month Award for January. The four-year veteran had two goals and eight assists for 10 points last month.

The GOHL was formed in 2007, and all Jr. β€˜B’ teams in the province now play under its umbrella.
