Douglas College produced the BCCAA championship golf
team for the second consecutive year. That’s Coach Gert
Van Niekerk in the back row.

Athletics sporting success

Just thinking about how events have been unfolding in the collegiate sports scene has
Betty Lou Hayes crossing her fingers and hoping it lasts.

“It’s shaping up to be a very good year — touch wood,” said Douglas College’s Athletic
Director. “Perhaps success really does breed success.”

The success began with the Royals golf team winning its second-consecutive B.C. Colleges
Athletic Association title in October, and beating senior varsity teams from UBC and SFU
along the way.

The finger crossing continues with a men’s volleyball team that is a perfect 5-0 in league
play while the women hold a 4-1 record. The men’s basketball squad has won nine consecu-
tive pre-season games (and has scored at least 100 points nine times while posting its 10-1
record) while the women have won four of their five games.

In wrestling, Douglas College continues to provide the model for other collegiate
programs. Men's coach Dave McKay was recently selected as an inductee to the Hall of
Fame of the U.S.-based National Athletic Intercollegiate Association for his accomplish-
ments as a competitor with SFU. Royals’ wrestlers defeated the University of Calgary 27-6
in a dual meet in November and will travel to a major NCAA tournament in Atlanta, Geor-
gia during the Christmas holidays. The well-seasoned Royals will be one of the favorites at
the inaugural Canadian collegiate championships to be held in Edmonton in February.

Douglas College has also started the first women’s collegiate wrestling program in B.C. this
fall, under coach Patty Boomhower. The Royals squad, which features students and non-stu-
dents, competed at its first tournament in SFU in late November.

Royals also continue to win in badminton. After winning its second-consecutive B.C. title
last year, and completing a major medal haul at the nationals in Ottawa, the team geared
up for spring by winning its first tournament. Even the bad news hasn’t been all bad. The
women’s soccer team lost its bronze-medal game 4-3 following a shootout, but finished
fourth in only its sophomore season. The fledging men’s soccer team managed two wins in
nine starts during its rookie season in the very competitive West Coast soccer circuit. &
