Toronto
After a brilliant record during the long winter season, Nisei
Flyers had the door slammed in their faces in their final bid for
rhe league crown. Mas Nakao’s boys bowed out of the THL’s Inter
mediate title race when they went down 3-0 in the second game of
the 2 out of 3 playdowns with Danforth Dukes. It was a bitter blow
for manager Nakao as his teams have done very well during the
league schedules for the past two successive seasons only to receive
heart-breaking setbacks in the playdowns.
