The Review

It was a tough week on the
soccer field for two local’ high
school soccer teams.

The Stelly’s Stingers senior ai
boys split a pair of games, soundly fe ey
| / ogee

defeating Peninsula-rival Parkland
Panthers 4-1 last Tuesday.

However, this big win was fol-
lowed Thursday by a 4-0 defeat at
the hands of a powerful team from
St. Michael's University School.

Meanwhile, the Panthers also
dropped their second game of the
week to the Oak Bay Bays by a
score of 4-0.

Stelly’s win over Parkland was
their first in four games.

Like their earlier losses, Stelly’s
was able to control much of the
midfield action.

Coach Ralph White admits it
was an important game for a team
he has just inherited.

“It’s a rivalry, sure. Stelly’s
versus Parkland versus Claremont.
Theyre all in the same (School)
division, and there’s definitely a
rivalry,” he said.

White’s on-field coaching was
complicated by his rule that all
players who try out get to play.

On Tuesday, that meant he had
to get 27 bodies into the action.

“We saw a lot of enthusiasm.
All players participate. We had 27
kids show up and they all
played:...If these kids come out,
theyre going to play, for the most
part.”

Scoring the goals for Stelly’s
were Ben Nolin, George White,
Jason Elder and Ryan Leask.

season, by a 4-1 score.

Parkland’s goal was scored by
Steve Landsberger.

White singled out the play of
Stelly’s defencemen Gerrit Vink
and Phil Tom, and the midfield
work of Jon DeReus, as keys in the
VICtOry.

Stelly’s opened the scoring and
was up 2-1 at the half. Parkland
coach Joe Milligan said mistakes
at critical times in the game

- allowed Stelly’s players to walk in

and score.

He said his team had chances to -

even the count in the second half,
but “we just lacked the finish to
tie the game.” :

Parkland was missing two key
players, “and that really hurt us,”
he added.

The Panthers were winless after
their first three games, but Milli-
gan said the team was not discour-
aged.

“It’s a really tough league,” he
said, noting each year Greater
Victoria teams are contenders for
the provincial title.

Parkland girls outrun the competition

The Parkland Panthers girls’
eross country team has a running
Start on the field after the first
meet of the season.

A strong overall team effort at a
Sept. 30 meet propelled the girls
to a first-place showing in the team
competition:

“They beat Claremont, and
Claremont is supposed to be
ranked number one,” said coach
Jesse Witte.

The Panther girls had 33 points
after the run, held at Beacon Hill
Park. Claremont was second with

51, followed by St. Michael’s
University School with 101.

Parkland was led by Sarah
Thornber, a Grade 11 student who
outpaced the field in the 2,500-
metre race.

Her time of seven minutes, 56
seconds put her ahead of defend-
ing champion Shannon Bowles of
Claremont.

Parkland’s Kristi Gregory was
fifth, while Jeannette Vandenbulk
was sixth and Caroline Morris
took seventh.

In boys’ action, Parkland was

fifth with 114 points, while Stel-
ly’s was sixth, two points back,
with 116.

Darryl Stensaker was the top
Panther, finishing 13th.
