QUOTE NOTE All-around athlete aces meet SHSS track team places 3rd in Trail By ED MILLS Staff Writer Apparently there isn’t any sport Rory Perrier can’t play — and play well. The Grade 11 student at Stanley Humphries secondary school proved that again Wednesday as she tied for the best overall female athlete at the West Kootenay Track and Field championships in Trail. Perrier, 16, who is also a starter on the school’s basketball and volleyball teams, won the high jump and triple jump and placed second in Coaches SHSS's Colette Pilloud. “Because she does so many sports, she doesn’t have the time to devote to any one in particular, but when she does, then she'll be really good,” he said. SHSS finished third overall in the event behind Trail’s J.L. Crowe in first and Grand Forks secondary school. Schools from Beaver Valley, Nelson, Rossland, South Slocan and Nakusp also had teams at the event. SHSS race walker Wendy Closkey her West Koot title track team with the javelin at the eight-school meet. Her performance in Trail led the list of the nine SHSS athletes — out of 28 —” who qualified for the regional track and field champion- ships set for this Wednesday in Cranbrook If Perrier ever decides on one sport there’s no telling how good she could be, said John Ritchie, who co- and can earn her second straight Provincials berth if she places in the top two in Cranbrook. Grade 9 student Averil Sheppard, who finished first in 800 metres, second in 1,500 metres and third in the 400-metre hurdles, will go to the regionals even though it’s generally a meet for aiMetes in Grade. 10 and up. Alex Fasthuber was the only SHSS senior to qualify as the Grade 12 * student won the shot put and placed second in discus. Grade 10 student Rhonda Dawes also defended her West Kootenay title in the shot put in Trail and finished second in discus, Other regional qualifiers included Tammy Bridges, who was second in high jump and fourth in long jump, Lee Holden, with a fourth in the 400 metres, Kurt Ross, with a third in javelin, and Amy Rogers, with a second in the 400-metre hurdles. Closkey was the only SHSS student to qualify for the provincials last year but Ritchie said there's at least four going to Cranbrook who have a good shot at taking the trip to Swangard Stadium for the provin- cials May 31 to June 1. And that's not bad, considering their wasn’t a lot of experience on the team this year, said Ritchie. “We have a lot of young athletes that are going to come up in the next year. There’s a lot of potential there,”’ he said. Juniors who placed top three in Trail included Jeff Moffat, who won the javelin, and Vince Antignani, who came third in the high jump.

That’s the story of Kelly Davidoff, who got cut twice on the weekend at the’ under 18 girls provincial field hockey team trials in Burnaby. The first cut was a five-stitcher to her upper lip courtesy of a player’s errant stick Sunday morning The second cut came later that day when she was axed from the team because the injury forced her to miss the rest of the second day of the trials. Sporting a doozy of a fat lip, a bruise and a lingering headache when she returned home Sunday night, Davidoff was sore, but she wasn’t sore at the coaches who cut her. “It’s unfair, but you can’t expect them to keep me when there’s so many other good people there,”’ said the 16-year-old Grade 11 student at Stanley Humphries secondary school. “It’s unfortunate but I'll try again next year,”’ she said As for her one on one meeting with the stick, Davidoff, who got her stitches out yesterday, said she didn’t even know what happened at first — then came the blood “There was blood all over the place — in my cleats, on my stick KELLY DAVIDOFF ++. will return Everyone who came near me had blood all over them.” But despite the gruesomeness of it all, Davidoff said it wasn’t all that bad. “I got to go in an ambulance to the hospital, that was ‘kind of fun.”” Davidoff was selected to try out for the provincial team from a regional tournament in Chilliwack two weeks ago. Another SHSS student, Aimie Chernoff, was also selected but didn’t attend the Bur- naby camp The under-18 provincial team competes in national tournaments and players from that team are selec- ted to tryouts for the national team. X-men snap long scoring d By ED MILLS Staff Writer The Castlegar X-Men, the scoreless wonders of the Castlegar Minor Soccer Association, have en- ded the drought. The X-Men scored more goals in two games last week than they had in 10 games up to that point in the un- der-14 division. And they won a game too. Fred Jack, Kevin Short, Shawn Horcoff and Robert Case scored for the X-Men on Wednesday as they beat Glenmerry 4-2 for their first win of the season against nine losses. The X-men’s seven-game scoreless streak was actually snapped Monday in a 3-1 loss to the Beaver Valley Hustlers. Prior to that game, the X-men, who play in an interlocking league with teams from the Trail area, hadn't scored a goal in a league game since their first one on April 1s In other games, the Kickers and Tornado, Castlegar’s two under-12 teams in the interlocking league, met each other for the second time this season Wednesday at Kiwanis Ficid. After playing to a 0-0 tie the first time April 22, the teams decided a rought winner this time as Brad Abietkoff scored both goals in a 2-0 Tornado win. Tt was the’ sixth straight loss for the Kickers, who were beaten by the Rossland Hotspurs 4-2 Monday in Rossland. Ryan Fontes and Kevin Pacheco scored goals for the Kickers against Rossland. The Tornado also lost Monday, 3- 0 to the Beaver Valley Flames at Kiwanis Field. All three teams get Monday off and two are back in action Wed- nesday as the X-Men host the War- field Lions at 5:30 p.m., while the Kickers take on the East Trail Raiders in a game that begins right after the X-Men’s.
