Athletic Update

 

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

January 13 - Saturday evening the
Royals met Trinity Western Univer-
sity in their first league game of the
season. Despite playing good, ag-
gressive defense, Royals could not
generate any offense to speak of,
and struggled with poor outside
shooting and missed lay-ups to fall
48-44. Trudy deBoer led Royals
with 10 points, followed by 9 from
Carrie Carlesen.

WOMEN’S VOLLEYBALL

The women’s volleyball team
had an extremely lackluster
weekend at the UBC Thundervol-
ley tournament losing all their
matches. "It was just one of those
weekends," says coach McInnes.
"You can bet we'll be practicing on
Sundays with scores like that."
