Shawn Lee Quay got the decisive goal on the stroke of full-time as Queen’s Park stunned defending champions Petrotrin in their Men’s Open Division Pool A encounter of the tenth annual Ventures Hockey Club’s Invitational International  Indoor Hockey Tournament at the Woodbrook Youth Facility, O’Connor Street, on Thursday. 
 
The Parkites had stormed into a 4-1 lead at the half-time interval with Lee Ron Tom Pack (14th, 15th) and Lee Quay (17th) and Khadeem Fortune (20th) all on target to cancel out Evan Farrell’s first-half item for the Oilmen. However, on the resumption, Wayne Legerton (22nd) and Farrell, with two more items to complete a hat-trick (28th, 29th) got the defending champion on level terms at 4-4. 
 
The Parkites then regained the lead at 5-4 via Tom Pack’s third goal of the match in the 30th minute but Farrell banged in a  fourth a minute later to draw his team level again at 5-5. With four minutes left in the match, Fortune restored the Parkites slim advantage at 6-5 only for Atiba Whittington, one of seven national players in the Oilmen squad tie up the score once more in the 37th minute. 
 
With the seconds winding down in the 40th and final minute, and both teams seem heading for a share of the points, Lee Quay then fired home past goalkeeper Ron Alexander to hand his team a deserved win ahead of their two other pool matches versus Notre Dame and Malvern. 
 
Yesterday, the Dames led by a hat-trick from Keith De Peiza dispatched Malvern 7-3 to go top of the four-team pool on goal-difference. In Pool B, Defence Force registered comfortable victories over Paragon (6-2) and Corona Fatima (10-5) to lead with maximum six points and will face both teams again in the three-team pool.
 
Yesterday, Fatima rebounded with a 9-8 upset of Paragon in its second match with Andrew Vieira scoring a handful for the winners. 
 
Meanwhile, Paragon continued its Women’s Open title defence with another lopsided triumph over visiting American-club, Fear None. 
 
Following its 18-2 mauling of Fear None I on Thursday morning led by a six-goal burst from national forward Kristin Thompson, Paragon returned in the afternoon session too thumped Fear None II, 13-2 inspired by a handful of goals from another national player, Zene Henry. 
 
Also with a 2-0 record is host club Ventures I after whipping Fear None I, 6-2 led by braces from national women’s team duo, Kristin Abreu and Yesenia Luces to add to its narrow, 2-1 defeat of its second string clubmates, Ventures II. The tournament which also involves a Veterans Division concludes tomorrow with a top prize of US$1,000 each to the Open Division winners, plus a trophy and hampers. 
 
In addition, individual awards for the “Most Valuable Player”, “Goalkeeper of the Tournament” and “Most Goals” in each category will also be presented.
