peting, the Aquanauts w

to the Trail-Warfield Stingrays
meet over the weekend and
swam away with their second
win in four meets, 162 points
better than runner-up Nelson.

Head coach Tom Carew said
he was impressed with his
team’s performance.

“The (number) of the kids we
brought compared to that of
Nelson, Trail and Colville,” he
said. “I think that says a lot
about the depth of our club.”

Over in Robson, the River
Otters’ came away from the
meet with a sixth-place finish.

Coach Tara Paulhus said she
was happy with the placing, es-

blaze Trail

pecially with only 22 swimmers
competing.

“We accumulated a lot of
points for the number of kids
we had there,” she said.

Paulhus said the Otters are
beginning to gel as a unit,
which bodes well for this week-
end’s meet in Colville.

“They're really coming to-
gether as a team,” she said. “If
they do as well as they did in
Trail, we should be up there in
the points.” .

Carew said about 50 Aqua-
nauts will travel to Colville,
where he expects the hosts to
enter some 100 swimmers.

With that in mind, he thinks
his club will be in tough to put
back-to-back wins together.

“You can never count us out,”
he said. “We'll be in the run-
ning, but it will be a lot closer.”

Fastball regular season winding

down as strangely as it started

@ Local men’s fastball
league getting harder to
predict with every game

NEWS STAFF

The regular season is com-
ing to a close in Castlegar
Commercial Men’s Fastball
action, but that doesn’t mean
things are starting to make
any more sense.

Last week's action saw the
Castlegar Merchants put an
end to five-game losing streak
as they put together wins over
Ml Valley Royals and Big O

The Royals then went out
and beat’ the league-leading
Nelson A’s on Canada Day,
and knocked off Big O the next

Monday, Big O stopped
their loss streak at two by
stopping Banjo’s Pub 9-7, yet
Pete Evdokimoff says every-
thing that’s happened of late
can be explained.

“This league is becoming a
very difficult league to pre-
dict,” Big O’s coach said Tues-
day. “Everybody is taking
their térn at beating every-
body else.”

Evdokimoff said his squad
had put their bats away in the
two recent losses but managed
to locate them in time for Mon-
day’s game.

“We're getting some timely
hitting,” he said. “Our hitting
has improved.”

Evdokimoff said Banjo’s
trailed for most of the game,
but managed to close the gap
with a couple of runs in the
late going.

“Their bats came to life in
the late innings and managed
to make a game of it, and that
made it closer than it was,” he
said.

Results of Tuesday’s action
between Big O and Nelson
and Banjo’s and the Mer-
chants were unavailable at
press time.

Pensioners return to
weekly golf routine

WI Local course hosts 43
pensioners in first post-
Dinosaur meet Thursday

Bud Lowther
NEWS COLUMNIST

Now that the Dinosaurs
have gone again — back 50 mil-
lion years or so — the Castlegar
Pensioners returned to their
regular Thursday morning play
of the back nine on July 2.

There were 43 golfers with
one visitor, Wally Davies of
Vancouver, and one newcomer,
Al Lorimer, and both were giv-
en golf balls.

The local course, which is
now lush and beautiful due to
the efforts of Nick Sherstobitoff
and his crew, gets harder to
play all the time. Nick says it’s
our Augusta National of the

north.

The best low gross scores
were by Bill Cheveldave and
myself, both with 44. I got my
first golf ball of the year.

Balls for low net scores went
to Lawrence Paul, Wally
Brunn, Frank Steenvoorden,
Kane Gjennestad, Jack Dunn
and Arnie Akselson.

As mentioned before, we are
lucky to have such a beautiful
and challenging golf course, so
let’s keep it that way by replac-
ing our divots.

Tomorrow at 8 a.m., the
game will be for least putts and
will be looked after by Joe
Cushner, D. MacDonald and
Frank Webster.

TIP OF THE WEEK

Try not to stand too close to
the ball, especially after you hit
it.

@ City athletes gear up
for Summer Games trek
over to Vancouver Island

Jonathan Green
SPORTS REPORTER

Castlegar will be well rep-
resented when the B.C. Sum-
mer Games get underway this
week.

A total of 81 local athletes
have been named to represent
the region in Port Alberni for
the annual event, which gets
underway tomorrow and ‘ends
Sunday.

And of those 81, 69 will ei-
ther participate as athletes,
coaches, officials, chaperones
or managers.

One of those making the
trip will be Ann Clow, acting
as a chaperone for the
women’s field hockey team.

Clow said she likes the
team’s chances, using famil-
iarity with one another as a
reason.

“The majority of them are
Stanley Humphries girls and
they did quite well,” she said.
“T think we'll have a very good
showing.”

Almost the entire team will
me made up of SH girls, as no
less than 10 played for the lo-
cal high school during the past
year.

Clow said the youth of the
squad will work as both an ad-
vantage and a disadvantage,

adding the speed will be there,
but not the provincial experi-
ence.

“Young girls are a lot faster,
but the older ones tend to use
their experience,” she said.

To overcome that, Clow said
the team should just sit back
and realize just what they can
accomplish.

“I think as long as they
know they’re playing up to
their potential, I think they'll
do alright,” she said.

The team will also consist of
16 in swimming, 15 in boys’
softball, 15 in mens’ field hock-
ey, 10 in basketball, eight in
volleyball, four in golf and one
each in baseball and track and
field.
