RUGBY TEAM TOP OF THE LEAGUE

 

The Douglas ruby team leads the
Totem Conference rugby league after
defeating Capilano College by a score
of 20-0 on Sunday.

Capilano put up a gallant fight
and never quit against the heavier and
more experienced Douglas squad. Douglas
led by a score of 8-0 at the half, the
result of tries by captain Dave Jagger
and Phil Sharpe.

In the second half Capilano came
out with their guns blazing, but Douglas
managed to stem the tide, with Bill
Hourston and Brian MacAdam making some
fine saves for the home team. Gradually,
however, Capilano wilted under the
Douglas barrage, and Douglas increased
the score to 20-0, the result of another
try by Phil Sharpe and a conversion and
two field goals by Brian MacAdam.

Douglas leads the league with 6
league points followed by Simon Fraser
with 4 points, Malaspina with 2 points,
and B.C.1I.T. and Capilano without any
league points to date. On Sunday
Douglas takes on S.F.U. at Hume Park at
13:30 P.M.

SOCCER TEAM WINS ONE, LOSES ONE AND
TIES ONE

 

The Douglas College soccer team
played erratic soccer last week tieing
with B.C.1I.T., beating Trinity and
losing to Okanagan.

On Wednesday at B.C.1I.T. Douglas
were enjoying a 3-1 lead with only
minutes left in the game when they
seemed to relax allowing B.C.I.T. to
level the score after an incredibly
cheap goal and a completely unnecessary
penalty goal. Goal scores for Douglas
were Andy Marshall, Lloyd Kennedy and
Gino Nonni.

On Friday, Douglas had a relatively
easy time blanketing Trinity Western
College 2-0. Douglas were never really
threatened, and for the most part the

Douglas second string team were on the
field.

Saturday's performance against
Okanagan was a repeat of Wednesday's
game. Douglas held the upper hand for
most of the game and were enjoying a
2-1 lead when Okanagan scored after an
Okanagan player had knocked the Douglas
goalie off his feet. The referee allowed
the goal, Douglas players lost their
composure, John Savoei of D. C. got
expelled from the game for fighting,
Okanagan scored another goal and that
was it.

Douglas now have a 2 wins, 2 losses
and 1 tie record and will have to
virtually win all their remaining games
if they hope to win the championship.

Scores for Douglas against Trinity
were Schofield and Coplin and against
Okanagan Savoie and Schofield.

Next weekend Douglas takes on
Selkirk College in a double header.
