ATHLETIC UPDATE

Christmas is coming and so is the first
Annual Christmas Cage Classic Basketbal |
Tournament in Hawaii which will be attended
by our men's and women's basketball teams.

The women's tournament features eight
teams from across North America including
Central Wyoming College; Edmonds Community
College (Washington); the College of San
Mateo (California), which has an enrolment
of 20,500; Lamar Community College of
Colorado; Inver Hills Community Col lege,
Minnesota; Northeast Tech. Community
College (Nebraska) and Hickam AFB (Hawaii),
These teams will round out the draw for the
women. The Douglas College Women's team is
favoured to win the Conference Championship
this year; and often have a difficult time
finding competition mature enough for them.
(continued)

This tournament should provide several
good opportunities for competition, as well
as a much needed break from cold and snow.

The men's draw has six teams including
Prairie State (l|linois); Edmonds (Wash.);
Centralia (Wash.), Waukesh Tech, and the
Marines from Hawaii. The Douglas College
Men's team is an excellent team this year.
They recently redeemed themselves by
defeating the Royal Classic Tournament
winners, the Vancouver City Police. As you
may remember, the Police narrowly defeated
Douglas to win the Royal Classic last month
The Police are a tough, physical team and
do not take lightly to being defeated by a
group of college "jocks". The game was
extremely rough and Coach Steve Beauchamp
described the win as "most satisfying".

The fund raising for this trip has not been
easy as both teams only started to raise
money in September. For a while it was a
touch and go as to whether they went to
Hawaii or to Edmonton at Christmas.
Fortunately thanks to aloan from the Student
Society, the teams are looking forward to

an almost international tournament. The

Best of Luck to both Douglas College Men's

and Women's Basketball teams!

Volleyball

Watch this year's Men's Volleyball team
wreak a merciless path to first place in
the league. Malaspina Athletic Director
Les Malbon describes them as a "Class. Act"
both on the floor and off. You don't know
how gratifying it is for me to hear that
kind of compliment.

The Women's Volleyball team is hanging in
there but Coach Loretta Zavarise in only
discovering now what Richard Norman went
through three years ago. The first year of
a new coach is a building year, and only
the second and third years are really
competitive. My compliments to the women's
team for showing grace under pressure.
