The Castlegar Peewee Reps beat Howe Sound 14-3 Monday at the A Provinciat Hockey Championship which take place all this News photo CRHL playoffs follow script News Staff One could argue that the Castlegar Recreational Hock- ey League’s regular season schedule ar mean much ~ considering all five teams make the Siagotts no matter what their records. That argument holds true if one of the those bottom place team knock off a top place team once the playoffs begin. But it isn’t valid argument this year as the top two teams during the regular season, Castlegar Sports Centre and Kootenay Computers, met in the CRHL championship at the oe Complex last aalis from the game, a 9:45 p.m. start, weren't avail- able at press time. But if it was anything like their last meeting during the round robin portion of the playoffs, it was one of the best matchups of the year in the CRHL. * Computers won that final ne game preview 2-1 in what was a rough, tight checking en- counter. Sports Centre earned its berth in the final Monday by beating Banjo’s Pub 8-5 at the Complex.

Saints runner 3rd at UBC News Staff In her first triathlon ev- er, Selkirk College Saints cross-country_runner Jen Small finished third overall in the 19- to 20-year-old cat- egory.at UBC March 7. Bolstered by an out- standing 800-metre swim (she was first in her heat af- ter that event), Small went on to complete the 23-kilo- metre cycle and seven-kilo- metre run in a time of one hour, 48 minutes. “It was neat for her be- cause with her attitude, she was so keen and so excited about competing in it and she did so well,” said team coach and college athletic director Sally Willis. Willis said the results may bode well for Small’s future in the triathlon. “Yeah, she’s really inter- ested in them and I think she can do really, really well,” Willis said. A 12-year veteran of the Castlegar Aquanauts Swim Club, Small also won the college Provincial Cross-Country Running Championships for the Saints in October, and was third in the Interprovincial championships against runners from Alberta and B.C. in November. Kris Johnston led the Saints at UBC with a time of 1:30 to finish 15th in the 21- to 22- year-old category. Greg Roberts was next for the Saints coming in at 1:49 to finish 21st, while Chris Owens came in two minutes behind Small to finish 23rd. Johnston also competed in the short course triathlon and duathlon on the same day. He had a time of 55.53 to place fifth in the short course event and was 24th in the duathlon. “All three in one day, that’s just amazing,” Willis said. Anna Riggio was the Saints next best finisher placing 10th in the 19- to .| 20-year-old category in the duathlon. James Waddell was 21st in the 19- to 21-year-old cat- egory in the duathlon, while Karl Schneider came in at 1:09 to place 23rd and Pat Mclvor was 36th.

CURLING COUNCIL The first evidence of curling in the world was found in Scot- land in the sixteenth century, but it wasn’t until about 1760 that curling was brought to Canada. For years curling games were played on frozen lakes and rivers. In 1807, the Montreal Curl- ing Club became the first or- ganized sports club in North America. It was during the next 50 years that curling spread across the country. The first major curling com- _ petition was the Macdonald Brier Tankard. The Canadian Men’s Curling Championship, which started in 1927. The word Brier was a prod- uct name of the Macdonald To- bacco company. There was a small heart shaped piece of the tin pressed into the heart of the tobacco, and so the heart became the symbol of excel- lence in Canadian curling. (Provincial Men’s Champi- ons earn the Purple Heart, a crest that is worn proudly by each player on the team.) The Brier was played at the Toronto Granite Club from 1927 to 1940 and then, after a break during the second World War, moved to sites across Canada. The first year in which a B.C. team was represented was 1936, and the only B.C. winners in the history of the event were teams skipped by Frenchy D’Amour of Trail (1948) and Lyall Dagg of Van- couver (1964). The length of games changed over time, with games lasting 14 ends in 1927, 12 ends from 1928 to 1976, and 10 ends since 1977. In 1980 the Labatt Brewing Company assumed sponsor- ship, retaining the Brier name, and presenting the na- tional winner with the prized Labatt Tankard trophy.
