Paragon whip Carib 6-2 in hockey

PROLIFIC goalscorer Dillette Gilkes netted a hat-trick as Paragon whipped Carib 6-2 at the National Hockey Centre, Tacarigua, on Wednesday night.

Action was in the clash of the lower-placed teams in the Men’s Championship Division of the Trinidad and Tobago Hockey Board’s 2003 season. Gilkes received support from Sherbert McKee, who scored twice, while Ron Alexander added the other goal in the rout. Nigel Simon and Neil Ramsammy were the lone scorers for Carib. In the first match of the double-header, Yesenia Luces struck the backboard twice to lead Ventures to their third win of the season, a 2-0 triumph over the struggling Raiders in the Women’s Championship Division. Leaders Defence Force suffered only their second defeat in the season, with a 3-1 loss to the hands of ‘guest team’ the national women on Tuesday.
Trinidad and Tobago vice-captain Stacey Siu Butt recorded a double with Luces adding the third, while Avanelle Lee was on target for the Army-Coast Guard combination.
