MAD HATTER SPORTS
Rugby Team Defeats UBC and BCIT.

; The Douglas College rugby team continued to show fine form this last
week defeating the UBC under 21 team and BCIT.

On Tuesday night Douglas took on the well-drilled UBC squad under
floodlights out at UBC. Rugby is traditionally of a high calibre out at UBC,
and the UBC team, it was rumoured, expected Douglas to be a real pushover. If
this was the case they would undoubtedly have been of a different mind as
Douglas really "put it to them" from the opening whistle and enjoyed a
6-0 lead at the half. The score would have been considerably higher had the
field been a little drier. In fact, UBC rarely penetrated into Douglas territory
that first half. The second half was much a repetition of the first half with
Gord Dennison, Russ Laurie, Jim Martin and Al Benson being outstanding for
Douglas. The final score was 9-3 in favour of Douglas. Scorers for Douglas
were Ponti with a touchdown, and Dave Jagger with a convert and field goal.

At BCIT on Sunday Douglas played a superb game defeating BCIT by a
score of 22-3. BCIT are also preparing for a trip to California and they
have a big heavy team with much potential. But they too made the mistake of
underestimating their much smaller Douglas opponents - and paid the penalty.
Although outpushed in the set scrums and outjumped in the lineouts, Douglas were
much faster on to the loose ball and completely baffled BCIT by throwing
the ball around and continually changing the direction of play. Dave Jagger,
Burt Kirby and Russ Laurie were especially outstanding for Douglas. By the
half Douglas led by 14-0 on touchdowns by Boon, Kirby and Schmidt, with Jagger
adding a convert. 1

In their frustration BCIT tried to use some muscle in the second half,
but were even further embarrased when one of their heavies got soundly thrashed
by Douglas’ Joel Schmidt. This put an end to the violence. In the second
half Douglas scorers were Sharpe and Edworthy with a touchdown each.

This coming weekend Douglas takes on Okanagan College and SFU.
