Just a quick note that the Queen's Golden Gaels women's soccer team is play their quarter-final game against the Cape Breton Capers at the Canadian university women's soccer championship in Victoria, B.C., tomorrow afternoon at 3 p.m. Eastern time.The Whig-Standard's Pat Kennedy wrote a nice feature today on Queen's prolific striker, Eilish McConville, a grad of Ottawa's Lisgar Collegiate. McConville, who led the CIS in scoring with 22 goals could become the second Gael to be named national player of the year within the past 10 years, joining Raelenne Dunne, who won in 1999 (the year the people behind this this site were, respectively, sports editor and sports director of the campus newspaper and radio stations).
The Gaels-Capers winner plays either Trinity Western or York in Saturday's semifinal. The other quarter-final matchups are Ottawa-Victoria (a rematch of the '05 final) and McGill-UBC. So obviously, one has to pull for an all-Eastern final to be played in Victoria, just because we're weird like that.
Anyway, we aren't abandoning Ye Olde Alma Mater simply because football season has ended. The various Gaels teams will do something noteworthy, we're sure.
That's all for now. Send your thoughts to neatesager@yahoo.ca.
