Golfing results At the Wandermere Eight Man team tournament in Spokane April 11 and 12, the Castlegar team pulled off a big show. “Tt was after 20 years of try- ing we finally got near the top,” said Brian Polovnikoff. The team has usually finished in last or second last place. This year they came in second, only four shots out of first place. Polovnikoff said that everyone played well in the mew found success of the team. Congratulations to the entire team: Dick Wayling, Carl Henne, Quinto Maida, Laurie Palibroda, Mick Tal- lant, Pat Metge, Terry Krycz- ka, and Brian Polovnikoff.

SHSS golf team Stanley Humphries is leav- ing its top two players at home for the tournament up in Nakusp today. The team’s coach, Bill Lunn, said that Todd Archambault and Jody Carew have already made the team. At the game in Nakusp, the remaining players will play for the third, fourth, and fifth spots on the team. Scott Clifford, Pat Biln, Mike Mhyra, and Chris Cher- nenkoff will be making the trip. Lunn said they are a real- ly balanced team; no really low scores, but no really high scores either. “I'll be really happy if we come second in Nakusp,” he added. Nakusp is playing on their own course, and they were a close third at last weeks match in Christina Lake. The L.V. Rogers’ team from Nel- son finished first The scores were: Todd Archambault Jody Carew Scott Clifford Pat Biln Phone 365-5579 with your sport brief West Kootenay midget team off to Westerns JASON KEENAN Sun staff For Pat Hennelly, the game has gone full circle. He is the coach of the West Kootenay midget boys volleyball club, bound for the Westem Canadian championships this weekend in Mission. ‘The last time the club made it to the finals, in 1985 in Moose Jaw, they came out as the champs. Pat Hennelly was a middle blocker with the team back then, and he could lead them to another Western title this year. He said the current team’s chances are strong for the West- ems. “The ingredients are here. We don’t really have a weak spot.” Comparing the teams, he said that both had two big hitters and a strong setter. While the current team has more physical talent, the 1985 team had more skill. “We had a lot of unity.” Back then, the team was made up of Mt. Sentinel players, who had been playing together for years. “These guys don’t play together all the time,” Hennelly added. The current team is made up of 15- and 16-year-olds from Stanley Humphries, Mt. Sentinel, L.V. Rogers, and Salmo Schools. “They are a really good serving team and the team has good size.” He added that Theo Latkin, from Mt. Sentinel, and Lee Malinek, from Stanley Humphries, are easi- ly the two best players in their age group in the province. Going into the Westerns, Hen- nelly is unsure of the teams chances: But it was much the same when the team went to the provin- cials ranked seventh, and beat Vic- toria for the championship. “We have no idea of what our competition is like,” said Hennel- ly. The coaches biggest concer is the serve reception (passing) game. “If we pass well, with the strengths we have we'll win.” He also said that the Victoria team they beat for the champi- onship will be tough at the West- ems. “Victoria is very close to our team,” he added. The victory over Victoria also helped the team financially. Because of their championship, the B.C. Volleyball Association will help fund their trip to Mission. The club raised $110 to help Pay for the banquet at the champi- onships last Saturday at their out- door triples tournament held at Mt. Sentinel. Hennelly, along with his old team mates Wesley and Jason Wishlow, defeated the team consisting of the Selkirk men’s volleyball coach Mike Perra, Selkirk’s male athlete of the year Darren Ettles, and Theo Friml. JASON KEENAN Sun staff Darren Ettles and Jennifer Small took home the heavy hard- ware at the Selkirk College Stu- dent Activities Awards Banquet on April 15 at the Castlegar Recreation Complex. They won the top male and female student athlete of the year awards, respectively. The four cri- teria for receiving the award are outstanding athletic ability, dedi- cation, leadership and academic performance In ‘presenting’ the award to Small, Elizabeth Fleet, the Chair- man of the Selkirk College board, said it was difficult to keep people in suspense about who was getting the award. Fleet brought Small to the podi- um before she talked about her accomplishments, somewhat embarrassing Small, a Castlegar native. Small, who competed on the cross country team, is in her first year at Selkirk. She won the B.C. championships last October 19, and was the first B.C. woman Selkirk College Student Activities’ Award Recipients 1991-1992 Peter Lemon Endowment Athietic Bu: Anna Riggio Jim Snook Memorial Award Chris Owens Athletic Bursary Dave Kabatoff Female Student Athlete of the Year Jennifer Small (Cross Country Running) Male Athiete of the Year and B.C.

She placed third at the University of British Columbia triathlon. Small’s cross-country coach, Sally Willis, said Small is a really diverse athlete with a lot of dedi- cation. “She always strives to do better. Always.” Willis said Small’s atti- tude was refreshing. “She gets excited about her achievements when she tries to do something different.” Willis added that after achieving her goals, Small right away sets new ones Willis added that most people in Castlegar know Small for her swimming achievements in the community. The last award of the evening was presented by Leo Perra, presi- dent of Selkirk College, to Darren Ettles, the male athlete of the year. Perra said that Ettles was “the individual who has always been around to help the eam, and team mates as well.” Ettles also took home the most-valuable-player award for the men’s volleyball team. Ettles also won recognition from coaches across the province, receiving a British Columbia Col- leges Athletic Association Provin- cial All-Star Award. Volleyball Coach Mike Perra said that win- ning the award was a great honour. “ ing in fifth, it didn’t look like we'd have anyone on the all- star team,” coach Perra added. But he was mistaken, and the rest of the coaches noted Ettles play, nominat- ing him to the BCCAA volleyball league's first all-star team. Coach Perra explained that all Castlegar's Lee Malinek stuffs the ball at the West Koote- nay's practice last Thursday.

Selkirk College athletics hands out hardware the teams in the. BCCAA nomi- nate players (@ the association, then the coaches take a look at the list. Somehow, he said they have to try and remember who these players were. It was also tough for Ettles to be noticed, said his coach. Ettles is a quiet guy, a silent leader. ‘He's so quiet that he doesn’t draw attention to himself.” But the strength of his play got him noticed. “In one game, he made the best hit I've ever seen,” said coach Perra. “The other coach went “wow.” Coach Perra said that the team as a whole was strong, and Ettles was the player who pulled the team up a level in play. Congratulations to Ettles and Small, to the rest of the award winners, and to Sally Willis and the rest of her student activities team for a great year. Selkirk's best! The male and female athletes of the year Darren Ettles and Jennifer Small. ‘SUN STAFF PHOTO / Jason Keenan Atom development team wins C-side Sun Staff The Castlegar Atom Develop- ment hockey beat Quesnel 5-4 this past weekend to win the C- division championships at a tour- nament in Osoyoos. They came out of the tourney with a 3-1 record. They beat Sur- rey 3-2, lost 2-3 to Beaver Valley, and got past Kamloops 4-2 to make it to the finals. Bob Watt, team coach, said the boys put together a great tourna- ment and a great season. He added that goalie John Craig had a strong tournament between the pipes. In the final game against Ques- nel, Kevin Prouchet, Brian Watt, and David Bell each notched a goal, while game-MVP Reed Byers put away a couple. Ryan Byers helped out the team with three assists. Quesnel led 2-1 after the first, but Castlegar came back to tie it at two. The atom development team then expanded their lead to 5-3 With two minutes left in the game, Quesnel made interesting by scoring what was to be the final goal of their season Watt said the team did quite i well considering their opposition. “They were playing rep teams that have played together all year,” Watt said. The Castlegar team is made up of players from the four atom teams in town, and they only play together only occa- sionally. The Kamloops team they beat was just under AAA-level, and had beat the development team 10-0 in a tourney at Christmas time. Tt was the last tournament for the year, and most of the players are off to the pee wee level next year.
