College Women’s Basketball
team put back-to-back wins
together for the first time this
season. On Friday night (Nov.
25), Royals avenged an earlier
60-48 loss to the University of
Victoria JV’s by defeating them
at Douglas College, 49-46. Led
by a strong team effort on
defense, and outside shooting by
Tammy Saitz (14 points) and
Ethel Atte (10 points), Douglas
College controlled the play pret-
ty much throughout. Claudia
Zamprogno also netted 10
points for the Royals.

Saturday night (Nov. 26),
Royals faced Trinity Western
University in the league opener
for both teams. It was a hard-
fought game as both teams
played with much intensity.
Royals held a 10 point lead at
the half, 35-25, but faced an in-
tense TWU press at various
times throughout the second
half, which caused Royal’s lead

 

to shrink to 4 points at one
stage. Douglas College hung on
and shut TWU down in the clos-
ing seconds, as Andrea Jackson
blocked a 3 point attempt and
then ran across the court to
block a 2 point attempt, to seal
the victory for the Royals (59-
53). Andrea Jackson led
Douglas College with 21 points,
while Ethel Atte had 17.

Royals take a break until late
December, when they travel to
Phoenix for an eight team
women’s tournament.

Douglas College Women’s Vol-

tournament at BCIT the Nov. 25
weekend. Their first match was
against BCIT. The games were
close, with scores of 15-13, and
15-7, the victory being for
BCIT. The second match
against Trinity Western Univer-
sity was not as close, with
scores for both games being 15-
8 in Trinity’s favour. The last
match, and the most suspense-
ful, was against Selkirk, with
Selkirk winning the first game
15-7 and Douglas winning the
second game 15-13. The third
game was won by Selkirk 15-8
after Douglas put up a good
resistance.
