Nearly all of Douglas’ points were scored by alumni of
the Gleneagle High School team in Coquitlam. Greg
Doucette, for one, proved his Canada U-18 selection
wasn't a fluke; the 193 cm (6’4”), 109-kg (240-pound)
prop forward scored three tries in the win. Fly-half
Nathan Klement added two tries, five converts and a
penalty goal. Matt Koenig, Jay Single, Adrian Sherriff
and Nolan Veljacic scored the other tries.

First-year Douglas head coach Ross Kinnaird brought
many graduating athletes to the college program from
Gleneagle, where he was the bench boss for the past three
seasons.
