Douglas College basketball teams lost four games to the
College of New Calendonia on the weekend.

by Greg Heakes —

Most people feel that
Friday, the 13th, is a one
day affair that should be
filed away early. But for
the men’s Basketball team,
the fateful day haunted
them throughout their stay
in Prince George.

Friday Feb. 13, the Col-
lege of New Calendonia
bombed Douglas 107-47
and Saturday Feb. 14, they
beat them again with a
113-52 score.

““We were totally out-
classed,’’ said Douglas
coach Dan Moore, ‘‘they
were much bigger and were
able to substitute new
legs.”’

‘We can still finish in the
piayoffs, but every game is
a must win. Realistically,
we have to start building for
next year. This year I have
only one returning player,
but next year we should
have four or five.’’

CNC is one of the top
teams in the Totém confe-
rance currently in a tie for
first place with Malaspino.

Douglas’ scoring was
spearheaded by John
DeAnna who recorded 12
points in Fridays game and
26 the next night. DeAnna,
the league leader, also ad-
ded 22 rebounds.

Douglas played well in
thefirst half of Saturdays

. game, and lead 14-12 at the

end of the first quarter.

But CNC came back to
lead 46-30 at halftime.
They eventually outscored
Douglas by a _ whopping
67-22 in the second -half.

Friday’s game went sour
for Douglas after four of
their five starters fouled
out. Peter Julian, Warren

‘Meneghello, Dennis Milne

and Mike Elliott accumu-
lated the maximum five
fouls each.

“It was the most lopsided
refereeing we've ever seen, -
and even the other team
agreed,’’ said Maneghello.
‘They still would have beat
us but the refereeing made
it such a lopsided affair.’’

vices of forward Randy
Kennett. They did however
aquire two new players for
the Prince George trip:
forward Glen Gadicke and

guard Mike Elliot, from
Aldergrove.
Meanwhile, Douglas’

women’s team were also
soundly defeated by New
Calandonia, 92-38 Friday,
and 86-32 Saturday.

“Tt was the Valentines
day massacre,’’ stated Dou-
glas coach Mike Dendy’s.

Our whole problem this
year is that we don’t break
presses properly and con-
sequently, alot of teams use
a press on us.”’

I thought our best game
was the second one because
we played tough defence.’’

Wendy Ellis lead the
Douglas team in _ scoring
with 12 pts in the first game'
and 18 in the second. ;

This weekend the men’s

and women’s teams play
