| Triumph was salvaged from
bitter disappointment, as the Concordia Stingers women's
team had to settle for a bronze in the third annual CIAU
championships, held here February 24-27. In the photo at
left, the players console each other after they lost the
shoot-out that decided their game against the Alberta
Pandas. The Stingers had to play without Corinne Swirsky,
the CIAU's top scorer, who had to sit out a controversial
one-game suspension. In the photo at right, the Stingers
celebrate their 6-0 defeat of the University of Toronto
Blues to take the bronze medal. The tournament, which had
been won both previous years by the Stingers, was won by
the Pandas, while the McGill Martlets took silver.
Swirsky was named CIAU Player of the Year at the
all-Canadian banquet held at the Montreal Museum of Fine
Arts on February 24, and Les Lawton was named Coach of
the Year. |
