Royals Clean Up

By Josh Martin, Sports Editor

amn, those Royals are hot. The Royals
D Men’s Soccer team is on fire with yet

another pair of wins on September
25" and 26", increasing their record to 4-0-0.
That puts them at the number one position in
Group A with 12 points and a plus/minus of
15. The Royals hosted back-to-back games at
Cunnings Field with one on Saturday against
the UBCO Heat and another on Sunday against
the Thompson Rivers University Wolfpack.
The reigning Provincial Champs beat the Heat
in a 4-1 effort, where Royals Sahil Sandhu
and Reynold Stewart each had a pair of goals.
However that wasn’t enough for the duo; they
wanted more and so they went out and scored
another pair each in Sunday’s match against the
Wolfpack. New Westminster native, defensemen
Dylan Myers added another goal, as did Lukas
Domijan in a 6-1 blowout over Thompson
Rivers University.

Sandhu is getting a lot of hype in his rookie
year in the BCCAA with the Royals, coming
overseas from Europe where he played a season
in Germany. He is an explosive threat and had an
outstanding outing over the weekend with four
goals and four assists. He is currently second in

the league in scoring, behind only his teammate
Stewart, who is first with three more goals.
Having the top two scorers in the league on your
team is a huge advantage this year and hopefully
the team can continue to produce with more
games to come.

The Royals Women’s Soccer team saw
some action on the 25" and 26" as well against
UBCO and the Thompson Rivers University
Wolfpack. There was no score throughout the
whole 90 minutes of play in either the Saturday
or the Sunday game, resulting in a tie for both
teams. The Royals picked up a point for each of
the tied games, totalling two points at the end of
the weekend which makes their current record
2-2-0. They are in third position in Group A,
with eight points and a plus/minus of +5.

Both the Men’s and Women’s Royals Soccer
teams at Douglas College remain undefeated
through the first four games of the season. This
looks very promising, especially for the Men’s
team who have four wins and are looking to
repeat last season by becoming the Provincial
champs once again. They have moved up a
spot in the National Rankings and are now
listed as number two overall, sitting behind the
Algonquin Thunder.
