WOMEN'S BASKETBALL TEAM DEFEAT TRINITY

 

The Douglas College women's basketball
team gained sweet revenge over their old rivals
Trinity College, in a league match on Friday
evening defeating them by a score of 57-20.
Valerie Law was oustanding for Douglas with
18 points followed by Karen Morley with 10
points. The team are obviously thriving
under the coaching and training of their new
coach, Roy Moyer. The battle for the league
championship is really warming up now with
our big threat coming from Vancouver City
College and Cariboo College. Playoffs are
slated for February 28th and March lst
at Trinity Western College, and coach
Moyer thinks his gals are in there with a
chance.

Next week the team is playing in an
invitational tournament hosted by BCIT.

WOMEN'S VOLLEYBALL BACK IN THEIR WINNING
WAYS

The Douglas College women's volleyball
team are tops again in the Totem Conference,
as’ they were last year, winning a tournament
in Kamloops two weeks ago and tieing for
first place in a tournament at BCIT last
weekend.

In Kamloops the team brushed aside teams
from Cariboo, BCIT, Okanagan, Selkirk,
Malaspina and New Caledonia Colleges
without losing a single game. Last week-
end the team won all their games until the
final game when they tied with Vancouver
City College. Hence they tied for first
place with VCC.

In the championships last year Douglas
defeated VCC in the final, so it looks
like they are heading for a rematch this
year. Coach Harish Palpatram feels confident
his girls will emulate the success of the
team last year. So here's hoping.

 

 

INTERESTING SCHEDULE LINED UP
FOR RUGBY TEAM

The College rugby team is back on the
move again and are practicing for an interesting
schedule culminating in a trip to California
to compete in the Santa Barbara International
Tournament. Last year the team competed in
the Golden Gate International Tournament in
San Fransico and finished 16th out of 32 teams.
Before departing for Santa Barbara in April,
the team will play a total of eight matches
locally. Among these will be matches against
their old rivals, Royal Roads Military College
and the University of Victoria Judes. Douglas
will also be hosting a 7-a-ride tournament on
March 29th.
