SOCCER

The Douglas College Mens’ Soccer
Team started its season on an unfor-
tunate note, dropping a pair of games
to Cariboo College Chiefs, 5-0 and 7-1.
Unfortunate, primarily because the
team that played in Kamloops on Sept.
22 and 23 was not truly representative
of the real strength the Royals could
have put on the pitch, as six regular
players were missing. Thus, it was
with great difficulty that the thirteen
players who did make the trip took on a
numerically superior Cariboo team.

Douglas played well in both games
-under the circumstances, but recover-
ing from the long ‘road trip up to
Kamloops, and the lack of available
substitutes took their toll on the
players; and the loss of goalkeeper

Bruce Godfrey and midfielder Dave
Kuhn in the first half of the first game
did not help, either. The loss of these
two players left a squad of eleven to
play most of the first game and all of
the second, with no substitutes, and
even Godfrey’s replacement for the
remainder of the first game, Ryan
Dorey, ended up with one of his
fingers in a splint.

Highlight. of the second game for
Douglas was Dan Dos Reis’ goal,
which, although in a losing cause,
showed that there was still some spirit
left in the team, despite the situation.

“Wait till the playoffs, Cariboo!!’’
was a ‘commonly-heard phrase on the
bus on the way back.

 

The Douglas Royals split a home
and road series with Royal Roads
Military College last weekend, with
the Saturday home game going 2-0 to
Douglas, and the Sunday return game
1-0 to Royal Roads in Victoria.

The Saturday game, at Sapperton
Park, was fairly well-dominated by the
Royals, with a first-half goal by Dan
Dos Reis (his second of the season),
and a second half effort by Ryan
Dorey, set up on a well-executed
passing play.

_ The Sunday game was a hard-fought
battle with fairly slack refereeing, that
was characterized by Royal Roads’
hockey-style approach to the game.

Their compliment of substitutes was
kept busy and constantly changed
every 2-3 minutes, always having fresh
legs being brought in. Effectively the
tactic worked, and they almost man-
aged to run an again numerically-
deficient Douglas team into the
ground.

Goaltending duties were shared by
Karnail Mangat, who made a number
of good saves, and Dave Kuhn, who
did well despite a leg injury and never
having played in goal before. The next
home game will be played on Sat-
urday, October 13, against Malaspina
College of Nanaimo at Sapperton Park.
Kick-off time is 1:00 p.m.
