Lee smashing SFU records

BURNABY, B.C. (CP) — Orville Lee is rewriting the
football record book at Simon Fraser University this
season, but perhaps the most amazing number attached
to the phenomenal running back is 16

It's the age he first played the game, only five years
ago.

Lee attended A.Y. Jackson high school in the
ToFonto suburb of North York in his early teens and
excelled in the high jump and long jump events.

“I wanted to play football so bad,” Lee said this
week. “But, my mother wouldn't let me.

“She's a registered nurse and she used to come home
with stories of battered-up football players being carried
into the hospital. She just wouldn't allow it.”

Lee played a trick on his dear old mom.

“When I turned 16 I snuck out the door behind her
and started playing for two teams,” he said. “I played for
my high school and for another team in the North York
Minor Football Association.

“Practices and games involved almost every night of
the week, so I had to be a little tricky about it as far as my
mom was concerned. She eventually found out, of course,
but by then it was too late. Football was in my blood.”

In Grade 12 he started thinkng about continuing the
game at the university level and Simon Fraser was the
first name that popped to mind. His greatest wish was to
play for the Clansmen.

“I had offers to go to a couple of other schools, but
SFU was definitely at the top of the list,” Lee said. “I'd
watch the CFL games on TV and hear that this player
and that player is from Simon Fraser University, near
Vancouver.

“It got so that you'd hear SFU and the CFL being
mentioned in the same breath. I was determined to go
there.”

Lee was the Clan’s leading rusher and scorer in his
freshman and sophomore seasons. Now, at age 21 and in
his junior year, he's being called the greatest running
back SFU has ever produced.

Which is high praise, indeed. Rick House and Terry
Bailey are among the outstanding former SFU backs and
each has gone on to pro careers in the CFL. Lee broke
House's single-game record for rushing this year (308
yards compared with House's 230) and has eclipsed
— career touchdown total with 31, five more than

ley.

Last Saturday Lee broke seven SFU records in the
Clan's 60-20 Columbia Football League rout over the
Whitworth College Pirates of Spokane, Wash., including
308 yards rushing. Many of the records had stood for 15
years.

NAMED TOP PLAYER

Lee was rewarded for his performance when he
became the first Clansman to be named player of the
week in the National Association of Intercollegiate
Athletics.

‘He's got tremendous toughness,” said SFU head
coach Chris Beaton of the five-foot-10, 185-pound native of
Jamaica. “In terms of blocking, catching and running the
ball, he's the best player on the team.”

Despite his success on the gridiron, Lee said the
most important aspect of his life is the classroom where
he's a kinesiology major.

“I'd like a shot at the pro game, just like anyone else
here,” he added. “But, the average career of a running
back in the pros is three to four eyars.

Football doesn't last forever. The most important
thing to me right now is to graduate and get my degree.”

VANCOUVER (CP) — The
bumbling British Columbia
Liaps still have designs on a
second-place finish in the
Western Division despite a
puzzling four-game Canadian
Football League losing
streak that has brought the
defending Grey Cup champ-
fons to their knees.

“As bad as we've been the
last month,” B.C. head coach
Don Matthews said Tuesday,
“if we win the next three, we
can finish second.”

Matthews’ optimism is not
readily shared around the
CFL as the Lions have scored

downs in four games, with
the long bomb that took them
to the CFL championship a
year ago is a thing of the
past.

Roy Dewalt has been sack
ed so often behind a porous
and aging offensive line that
the veteran quarterback
booked an appointment with
club doctors because of re.
curring headaches.

The Lions, 23-17 losers at
home last week to the Hamil
ton Tiger-Cats, play the
Saskatchewan Roughriders
on Sunday in Regina. Both
teams have three games re-

at his weekly news con-

report

By TAMMY HARSHENIN

Last Tuesday was a big day for SHSS in the way
of sports.

Two games were held at the high school. The
senior boys soccer team played Rossland and came out
ahead with a score of 4-2. The other group of success-
ful athletes was the senior field hockey team beating
Nakusp with an easy score of 4-0.

The senior girls volleyball team played Grand
Forks in Grand Forks on Tuesday as well, and after a
struggle, went home defeated. The girls won one game
outof a series of four.

On Wednesday of last week, the senior field
hockey team held a host game against Nelson and
were disappointed when Nelson returned home with a
winning score of 4-0.

Jessie Zieke’s cross country running team
attended a meet in Grand Forks on Thursday and
Brandy Howard got a second place win for the junior
girls. The team is training hard for the East-West
Kootenay meet which will be held Nov. 1 at Selkirk
College

Miss Wile's junior field hockey team played
Rossland in Rossland last week and were able to come
back still holding the title of being undefeated for the
season. The score after this challenging game was 1-0.

The girls will be hard at work every day this week
with games and endurance practices, as this week will
finish up the season. Their attendance at the under 15

We are pleased to have the team’s hardworking
coach with us at SHSS as one of our more recent
members of staff. Miss Wile came to B.C. from Nova
Scotia this year and is presently teaching Physical
Education at the high school. She is enjoying her
position as the junior field hockey coach greatly,
because it is a new position to her.

“In Nova Scotia,” she explained, “we teach grass
hockey, as you call it here, in P.E., and it is played at a
college level, but we have no competitive teams in
grass hockey at the high school stage.”

Miss Wile feels the strength of her team lies in a
balance of experience and bringing in new players.
The nucleus of the team is made up mostly of the more
experienced Grade 10 girls. These girls are Sherry
Popoff, Judy Closkey, Dorothy Chaves, and Carri
Goreoff.

“These girls are a great advantage in the way of
helping out the rookies of the team. who are mostly in
Grade 9,” the coach says.

CGIT's goal is to prepare girls for life with a purpose.
Through games, activities, outings, camping experiences
and worship, the girls receive support from peers and
leaders to become girls God would have them be.

Another important aspect of CGIT is the role of
leadership given the executive of the group. Business
meetings are conducted to give the girls the experience of
handling a more formal and standard structure.

This year's president is Hedda Brekenridge who,
with some assistance from the leaders, is responsible for
chairing the meetings.
