February 26, 2003 DOUGLAS) COLLEGE Rugby Women: Premier Douglas 17 —_ Seattle 7 (Exhibition) Douglas took on the Seattle Mudhens in an exhibition game on Saturday and came out winners 17—7. The Mudhens were previously members of the BCRU Premier League, but dropped out this year to concentrate on commitments in the US. The Mudhens scored off of a set scrum in the first 30 seconds, when a lapse in defensive coverage allowed their outside centre to scamper 50 metres for a try. The con- vert made it 7—0, but the Douglas defense held up for the remainder of the day and did not give up another score. The 2nd half saw the superior fitness and ball-handling skills of the locals pay off against the larger Seattle 15. Corinne Jacobsen ran in a penalty play from 5 metres out to close the gap to 5—7. Within minutes, winger Carly Albiston broke several tackles and was stopped just short of the try-line. Prop Amy Buckland scooped the ball off the turf and dove in to give Douglas the lead. Amber Cummings converted for 12-7. A nice sequence of passes found Vanessa Andrascik in the clear for the final score of the day, 17-7. 2nd Division flanker Nicole Edgson was named player of the match for her fearless running and tackling against much larger opponents. The game was a testament to the development pro- gram at Douglas, as only 4 players who started in the Provincial Championship game last April took part in the contest.—Dave Pearcey Division II Douglas 20 Kamloops 18 The 2nd Division team won their 7th league game of the year on Sunday, defeating Kamloops 20-18. Douglas roared out to a 20-3 halftime lead, but had to hang on against a furious comeback by the Okanagan team in the last 40 minutes. : ‘Tries came from Tanya Leigh, Nicole Edgson, Lindsey Heer and Rikkilee Jones. The lack of a kicking game almost cost Douglas. While they continued their pattern of missing virtually every conversion attempt, Kamloops made two penalty kicks and a conversion to go with their two tries. Flanker Kathleen Tchang of New Westminster won the “Barbie” award as the top performer on the day.—Dave Pearcey West Coast Women’s Rugby Association Standings ORS Ce Oe He ee Premier GP W 1 i Dee LS Douglas 12 9 2 1 0 38 James Bay 12 gi 3 0 0 36 Burnaby 11 8 2 0 1 31 SFU 11 6 5 0 0 24 Capilano 12 5 i 0 0 20 Nanaimo 12 4 6 1 1 A UBC 12 3 9 0 0 12 UVIC 12 2 10 0 0 8 Division II_GP W L rT (>; ..- PIS Abbotsford 7 7 0 0 0 28 Douglas 9 7 1 1 0 30 UBC 8 4 4 0 0 16 Capilano 10 4 4 0 2 14 SFU 9 3 6 0 0 12 Kamloops 11 1 9 1 0 6 Sports http://otherpress.douglas.bc.ca Men: Fraser Valley Rugby Union Standings Division I GP W L T D PTS Abbotsford 9 8 1 0 0 32 Langley 8 6 2 0 0 24 Kamloops 8 6 2 0 0 24 SFU 8 3 5 0 0 12 Surrey 9 3 6 0 0 12 Douglas 9 2 7 0 0 8 Richmond 9 2 7 0 0 8 Division II_ GP W Ls T D___ PTS Langley 10 10 0 0 0 40 Kamloops 10 8 z 0 0 32 Abbotsford 10 ic 3 0 0 28 Douglas 10 5 2 0 0 20 SFU 10 3 - 0 0 12 Surrey 10 3 7 0 0 12 Richmond 10 3 6 0 1 11 Chilliwack 10 1 9 0 0 4 Basketball Men: Feb. 21 Kwantlen 73 Douglas 61 Women: Feb. 21 Kwantlen 67 Douglas 39 BCCAA Men’s Basketball Standings Team G W L +/- PTS UGE 15 It 4 +152 22 Kwantlen 16 11 5 +142 22 UCFV 15 10 5 +133 20 UNBC 15 10 3] +1 20 Douglas 16 9 7 +79 18 Capilano 16 9 7 +28 =18 Langara 16 8 8 -4 16 Malaspina 15 ? 8 +7 14 Okanagan 14 1 13 “297 2 Camosun 14 0 14 -297 0 BCCAA Women’s Basketball Standings ‘Team G W L +/- PTS UCFV 15 15 0 +390 30 Capilano 16 3 3 +259 26 UNBC 15 10 5 +106 20 Langara = 15 10 +6 +140 20 Malaspina 15 8 7 +42 16 Okanagan 15 7 8 -28 14 WEE 15 vs 8 +137 14 Kwantlen 16 5 11 -94 10 Camosun 15 2 13 -311 4 Douglas 16 0 16 -641 0 Volleyball Men: Feb. 21 GBC 3 Douglas 0 25-22, 29-27, 25-17 Women: Feb. 21 Douglas 3 CBC 0 25-12, 25-11, 25-12 the other press BCCAA Women’s Volleyball Standings x-denotes clinched playoff spot Team MP W L PTS x-Malaspina 17 16 1 32 x-Capilano 17 13. 4 26 x-Langara 17 11 6 22 x-Camosun 17 10 7 20 x-UCC 17 10 7 20 x-Okanagan 17 10 7 20 Douglas 18 9 9 18 COTR 17 4 13 8 CNC 17 2 15 4 CBC 18 1 17 2 BCCAA Men's Volleyball Standings Team MP W L PTS x-Camosun 17 15 2 30 x-Malaspina 17 14 3 28 x-COTR 17 12 5 24 x-Capilano 17 11 6 22. x-CBC 18 9 9 18 x-UCC 17 7 10 14 Douglas 18 7 11 14 Okanagan 17 5 12 10 Langara 17 4 13 8 CNC 17 2 15 4 Badminton BCCAA Badminton Standings Provincial Chamionships Results not available at press time.
