The ALC has turned down plans – at least for now – to pave a road and overpass through Milner farmland. by Matthew Claxton and Troy Landreville mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

The value of farmland outweighs the value of an overpass, the Agricultural Land Commission has decided. A controversial plan for a road and overpass in the Milner area would be too damaging to local agriculture, according to a letter sent to Langley Township by the ALC. A letter from Richard Bullock, chair of the ALC, says: “…the commission found that the proposal, in its entirety, would negatively impact the agricultural capability and sustainability of lands within the Agricultural Land Reserve.” However, the decision does not rule out any overpass. It notes that most, but not all of the ALC’s conditions for allowing the plan were met. The letter also acknowledged that the ALC is willing to work with the governments and corporations involved to resolve the overpass issue. Revised proposals would likely be processed faster now that the ALC has a great deal of information on the issues at stake, the

letter said. Of the four ALC commissioners for this area, two voted to refuse the application, while two voted against the motion. Under ALC regulations, tie votes result in applications being turned down, according to the documents released Friday. The land commission said in a statement it would work with the overpass proponents on a new plan that would meet its requirements. The decision pleased opponents of the controversial plan. For the past 25 years, Earl Mufford has farmed about 600 acres in the Milner area for hay and forage crops. Part of that land is a 90-acre plot immediately north of Mufford Crescent. Mufford, whose family settled in Langley in 1885, agrees with the ALC’s decision, saying it will help save a section of those 90 acres from being, he said, “severed” by road expansion. Mufford said a potential overpass in the area should connect onto existing roadways, such as Glover Road, and believes Glover and existing routes need to be upgraded to accommodate more traffic.

“They seem to plan overpasses away from existing highways,” Mufford said. “The overpasses should be either on, or connected, to existing highways.” Township Mayor Rick Green said he will be working to pull together all the funding partners to start talking about a new design. The partners include the Township, the province, the federal government, the railway firms, and TransLink. “This really doesn’t have to be that difficult a process,” Green said. Councillor Charlie Fox, one of the majority on “This Township really council who voted for doesn’t the project, have to said the be that Township will bear difficult.” the costs of Rick Green redesigning the overpass. This is because it doesn’t get money from other governments and partners until the project starts. The overpass was planned to connect 64th Avenue between 204th and 216th Streets, over rail lines and Highway 10. Proponents said it would get traffic around frequent trains. Many farmers objected to losing 29 acres of agricultural land in what was the Hudson’s Bay Company Farm, more than a century ago.

A fire that has caused extensive damage to the Chief Sepass Theatre is believed to have been deliberately set. by Heather Colpitts hcolpitts@langleyadvance.com

Principal Jon Bonnar hadn’t planned to assemble the more than 900 students attending Langley Fine Arts school on Monday. But he and the staff were forced to break the news to the students that due to vandals setting a fire in the Chief Sepass Theatre Saturday evening, their studies were not going to be the same for the foreseeable future. “We’re going to be without the theatre, classroom and performance space for approximately two months,” Bonnar told the Langley Advance. The fire was set at around 9:30 p.m. on Saturday. Investigators believe they’ve found the point of entry to the building, said Cpl. Holly Marks, spokesperson for the Langley RCMP. Fortunately, the fire did not spread to the rest of the school. “It was contained in there,” Marks said. The 310-seat theatre built in the 1990s will be out of use for several months and sustained at least $200,000 damage. Bonnar said that estimate is simply a starting point and he expects the amount to go higher. He noted that while the fire was small, there is extensive smoke and water damage. Each stage spotlight, for instance, will have to be scrubbed and that costs about $100 per light and the school has about 100 spotlights, alone. Staff have also been scrambling to contact the community groups and others who rent the space. “It’s not only our performance space. It’s used by the community,” he noted.

It wasn’t quite as quiet as the grave, but it was a calm and generally trouble-free Halloween for Langley’s emergency responders. RCMP officers responded to few serious problems, reported local spokesperson Cpl. Holly Marks. There were plenty of illegal firecrackers and fireworks going off, but no reports of people being seriously hurt or starting accidental fires. Nothing serious came to the attention of the Township fire department at all, said assistant chief Bruce Ferguson. “I think the rain just happened to come at the right time,” Ferguson said. Both Saturday and Sunday nights were relatively rainy. Ferguson noted the Sunday night rain began just after the younger children were finished trick-or-treating, putting a damper on any outdoor mischief by older ghouls and goblins. The quiet night was a welcome contrast to Abbotsford, where a firecracker accident seriously damaged a 14-year-old boy’s hand. He had to have reconstructive surgery and at least one finger had to be reattached.

Man dies in Cloverdale crash

Police are investigating a crash that claimed a man’s life Saturday and sent two more to hospital. by Roxanne Hooper rhooper@langleyadvance.com

One man is dead, two others in hospital following a crash in Cloverdale early Saturday morning. Members of the Surrey RCMP came across a single-car crash in the 17600 block of 64th Avenue at 3:43 a.m. on Oct. 30, said Const. G. Croutch. “An eastbound 2010 Chevrolet Camaro had left the roadway and struck a telephone pole,” said Croutch, a member of

the criminal collision investigation team for Surrey RCMP’s traffic department. The man driving sustained serious injuries, while another man sustained life-threatening injuries in the crash. Both men were transported to Royal Columbian Hospital. A third man, also a passenger in the car, was pronounced dead at the scene, Croutch said. “At this time, the file is still under investigation, but speed and alcohol are believed to be contributing factors in the collision,” he explained. Any potential witnesses to the crash, or who have information about the incident, are asked to call Const. G. Croutch at 604-502-6069, or call the Surrey RCMP traffic section at 604-599-0502.

The firm has a C- rating from the Better Business Bureau, recently raised from a D. It had an F a few months ago. The firm has more than 50 complaints from across the continent, although none of them come from B.C., and about 80 per cent have been resolved. In Langley, the firm has been holding its meetings in the Township hall’s council chambers for about a month. David Leavers, who oversees Township facilities, said that after he was contacted

by the Advance about FHTM, he checked to see if they have a local business licence. They didn’t, so a letter has been sent asking them to apply for one in the Township. Local FHTM reps did not answer questions about the firm’s marketing practices, and referred all questions to their Lexington, Ky. head offices. A written list of questions has been forwarded to the company, as per chief operations officer David Mills’s request. He did not respond by deadline Monday.

Public Safety Advisory Committee: Looking for individuals to assist with the development of strategic objective priorities and goals for the RCMP and in the development of policies and programs designed to enhance public safety in the community.

ALC right to deny overpass Even people who knew it was the right thing to do were probably surprised by the Agricultural Land Commission’s decision on the Mufford Crescent/Glover Road rail overpass proposal. The ALC effectively instructed Langley Township council and anyone else involved in the project to go back to the drawing board… and don’t bother coming back until there’s a reasonable solution to the traffic bottleneck, without jeopardizing a huge tract of viable agricultural land. From the start, there have been few people who have denied that there is a need for change at that horrible bit of traffic planning that resulted in the nexus of Glover Road, Mufford Crescent, and the Langley Bypass. No one denies that the dozen trains a day create traffic tie-ups that are more than just a nuisance for impatient motorists. They cause potentially dangerous delays for emergency vehicles – delays that will impact those whose lives depend upon arrival times of precious minutes, even seconds. And no one denies that those dangers will increase exponentially when trains – approaching two kilometres in length – start passing through in up to triple the current numbers by the time the Roberts Bank Port expansions are all completed. But the farmland is important, too. And solutions have been roughed out that would save the potential agricultural richness of the Milner Valley from the industrial or commercial development that would become inevitable if a major thoroughfare were allowed to cut a swath through it. The ALC’s decision won’t be popular with some members of Township council, or with Kevin Falcon, the former highways minister whose ultimatum propelled the felled proposal forward. But it is the right decision. – B.G.

United Church

More to church merger story

of some very hard-working former team members who believed in the project: the Reids, an environmental engineer and his wife, also an engineer with expertise in building envelopes; Jubilee’s late Rev. Dr. Tom Bulman, who conceived of the plans for Windsong Co-op Housing and worked with Georgie Award-winning architect Terry Lyster on rezoning the Jubilee property for institutional use; Bob Cormack, with expertise in site selection; the creative architect Kim Rink, who would carry his environmental ideas into plans for Jubilee; retired Cancar and trouble-shooting mechanical engineer Dick Huff; facilities supervisor Heather Thorne; nurse Nicole Rogers; teachers Heather MacKenzie and Rosalind Jederman; and retired social worker Paula Moore-Ansell. We prepared a request for proposals. An architect was selected and preliminary plans were discussed by the congregation. But when the $1.7 million came through, the plans fell through. Our team was “released.” On Sept. 30, 2010, Jubilee got the cash and the land, and the last laugh was on us, the Building Development Team. There will be no new church. The cash will go to pay off the $900,000 mortgage on Sharon United in Murrayville. The salaries of Ministry staff will now be secure. The self-fulfilling prophesy was more than realized for Jubilee. And the very dear Langley pioneer, the late Dick Straw, will have been forgotten, along with the efforts of those Willoughby/ Walnut Grove lay people who worked in Christ’s name to provide a humble place of worship for the United Church flock. Church architecture guides suggest that form should follow function, but in the case, the faith that followed is in freefall. Now the final Jubilee United Church minister can be found in an office at what she identifies as “the five corner site.” Jubilee is no more.

Agricultural

Saving farmland was right

Dear Editor, The Agricultural Land Commission has done what the citizens of Langley Township have been demanding, and the citizens got it exactly right: no overpass in farmland. The current council (at least six of them) are completely out of touch with the people. Even though they heard from 40 speakers at a public hearing, they still did not get it. Elected councilors should remember they only occupy a seat at council by permission of the people. Councillors who don’t want to listen to the people need to move on. Build the overpass on the Langley Bypass, where it makes sense to do it. This is what the people have been saying since the beginning of this fiasco.

unnatural disasters; victims of religious, political, and cultural persecution; victims of civil war, victims of historical events; and victims of ’phobias and ’isms. Just watch the news; the evidence is there. They need our help. Human rights, public and national safety, food, shelter, health, employment, and education are not for the exclusive enjoyment of Canadians. All humanity has a right to these necessities. The day Canada withholds our military service to aid others is the day we become less human. In any case, support our troops, because these volunteers bear a heavy burden of responsibility on behalf of all Canadians. They also put themselves in harm’s way for humanity. Brian G.

Dear Editor, Your piece on the unification of four area United Churches provides a facile explanation as to why it took place – dwindling attendance. Perhaps the obvious is being overlooked. Two years ago, consultants prophesied that in 10 years the United Church was going to “fall off the cliff.” I thought that strange, since the United Church that my Dad helped pull together in Melfort, Saskatchewan, in 1925, has survived two World Wars, 10 years of drought and depression, hard economic times in a have-not province, all followed by new confidence born of the resurgence of today’s resource-based wealth. Jubilee United in Langley Township chose its name in 2000, the 75th Jubilee anniversary year of the United Church of Canada. It grew wealthy through the good graces of the late Willoughby pioneer Dick Straw. He gave the United Church of Canada a fruit orchard on 208th Street, close to 80th Avenue for a nominal sum. St. Andrew’s United in Fort Langley dutifully paid the taxes on the property, while the fledgling Jubilee United flock met and worshiped there. Over the years, Jubilee’s Building Development Team members considered options for building on the site. When the 208th Street overpass opened, a neighbourhood contractor donated and installed an access culvert. The lack of a sewer connection was the only big stumbling block to developing the 208th Street location. But construction of a sewer line to service the new Mormon Tabernacle to the west of Jubilee’s property on 80th Ave. cleared the way for Jubilee’s new church. A developer snapped up the property for $1.7 million, swapping the orchard for a building site plus enough cash to build a mortgage-free church nearby. It was my distinct pleasure to be the final chair of the Building Development Team and to arrange the formal signing ceremony for the down payment and legal paperwork. I was standing on the shoulders

What is the bid? Goods are being sold online as a cancer fundraiser.

by Heather Colpitts

hcolpitts@langleyadvance.com

The Canadian Cancer Society has found another way to put donated goods to use after having to cancel a fundraising dance. The items were originally donated for the Jeans and Gems gala, which was cancelled due to soft ticket sales. “We already had all the items donated by local businesses, so we switched over to an online auction format,” explained Carissa Halley, with the society’s Langley office. Using the charity branch of the eBay site (which waives fees), the society is offering up everything from tickets to comedy shows and horticultural services to yoga packages and Canucks tickets. “The net result of this is that we end up with all the proceeds from this auction going to fund our mission of eradicating cancer and improving the quality of life for those living with cancer,” she said. The Cancer Crushing Online Christmas Auction runs Nov. 1-21 and supports the work of the Canadian Cancer Society in the Fraser Valley Region. “The auction name just kind

of came to us, we decided we wanted something that sounded a bit catchy and explained what we were doing,” she said. “Our volunteers often refer to themselves as ‘Cancer Crushers’ and so the name seemed to naturally fit.” People go online to http:// bit.ly/cancerauction to bid. There are also online photos and descriptions of the items. The first round runs Nov. 1-10. The second round runs Nov. 7-17 with round three Nov. 11-21. New items are posted in each round. “The support of local businesses has been amazing and we are so happy to be part of such a giving community,” she added. The winning bidders pick up their items at the Langley office of the cancer society, 202-20434 64th Ave. She noted that many of the prizes are site specific, such as the fitness passes valid at the Langley location or the spa day at a Cloverdale business. The society is willing to mail out gift certificates. Anything larger must be picked up. “We are available to coach people on how to create an eBay account or to answer any questions that might come up for them,” she said. She can be reached at challey@bc.cancer.ca or 604-5331816.w

The regional district is looking for more taxes. by Heather Colpitts

hcolpitts@langleyadvance.com

Metro Vancouver homeowners will see a tax increase of about $44 annually as the regional district board approved a 5.8 per cent boost to its budget. The regional district is comprised of 23 member communities around the Lower Mainland. Langley is its eastern boundary. The budget also features a $64 million transfer to capital which brings the total tax increase residents will face to 5.8 per cent. The owner of a $600,000 home will see the $44 average increase, making Metro Vancouver’s property tax share $513. That increase will bring in an extra $33 million for 2011. The regional district’s budget for next year is $603.4 million. The Metro Vancouver board decided the tax

increase was needed to sustain operations as well as hire two dozen new staff. “The fact that the operational increase has been limited to 2.3 percent, even with a contractual wage increase of four percent, reflects the rigour of the budget process and Metro Vancouver’s reputation for frugality,” said Board Chair Lois Jackson. Metro Vancouver is comprised of the Greater Vancouver Regional District, the Greater Vancouver Sewerage and Drainage District and Greater Vancouver Water District as well as overseeing regional parks. Langley City Mayor Peter Fassbender said the regional district faces many challenges, such as aging infrastructure and that he’s not seeing spending in the budget that isn’t needed. But he admits that any tax increase is unpopular and Metro Van’s budget does have an impact on member municipalities. The City is beginning its budgeting process for next year. “We have to think about how that impacts our taxpayers,” he said of the regional district increase.

Policing

Don’t give cash to panhandlers: RCMP Mounties are trying to stop panhandling in Langley. by Matthew Claxton

mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

Langley police are asking drivers to not give money to panhandlers who have taken up spots along busy roads in the downtown area. Areas around 200th Street, 64th Avenue, Willowbrook

Drive, and the Langley Bypass have become popular panhandling locations. They’ve become known as some of the most lucrative south of the Fraser River, said Cpl. Holly Marks of the Langley RCMP. The Safe Streets Act made panhandling illegal in B.C., Marks said. Police are also responding to safety concerns. Drivers have called in the Mounties because they are worried that the panhandlers, who move in and out of traffic, will be hurt by cars.

NOW OPEN FOR

LUNCH!

Many of the panhandlers are homeless, but there are also alcoholics and drug addicts, and even some who are simply unemployed, Marks said. The panhandlers will stop gathering there when drivers stop giving them money, Marks said. She advised those who wish to help the homeless in and around Langley to contribute to the Gateway of Hope shelter, Stepping Stone, the Langley Food Bank, or other agencies.

Flames torch Kodiak visitors

Stampeder lassoed A Mission blocker used any means possible to stop Langley Stampeder Joshua Kwiatkowski from getting to ball carrier Joe Diguistini Sunday at McLeod Athletic Park. The Stamps edged the visiting Mission 9’ers 28-26 to improve their record to a perfect 8-0, tops in the Vancouver Mainland Football League’s Midget Division standings.

A pair of third period powerplay goals snapped a 4-4 tie and lifted the Ridge Meadows Flames to a 6-4 win over the Aldergrove Kodiaks Friday at Planet Ice Maple Ridge. Thomas Hardy scored a hat trick for the Kodiaks in a losing effort. Brendan Lamont also scored for Aldergrove. The loss drops the Kodiaks’ record to 7-9. The Aldergrove junior Bs are lodged in a three-way tie with Port Moody and Ridge Meadows for second place in the Pacific International Junior Hockey League’s Harold Brittain Conference. The Kodiaks are in Ladner tonight (Tuesday) for a game against the Delta Ice Hawks, before hosting the Squamish Wolf Pack Wednesday, 7:15 p.m. at Aldergrove Arena.

Junior A hockey

Chiefs clip Nanaimo, fall victim to high-flying Kings Josh Myers scored four times over the weekend, but it wasn’t enough to help the Langley juniors solve the Powell River Kings. by Troy Landreville sports@langleyadvance.com

The Powell River Kings made Halloween weekend very scary, indeed, for the Langley Chiefs. The Kings beat the Chiefs twice, 6-1 Saturday night and 4-1 Sunday afternoon, at Powell River’s Hap Parker Arena. The back-to-back home-ice victories improve the Kings’ record to a British Columbia Hockey League Coastal Conference-best 15-4-1-1. The Chiefs meanwhile, have lost five of their last seven games, as their record drops to a still-respectable 13-6-0-2. Langley sits second in the conference, four points up on the Surrey Eagles. Chiefs head coach Harvey Smyl had mixed reviews of his

team’s play against the Kings. “I think the first game we didn’t seem to be into it mentally,” Smyl said. “I thought they [the Kings] got up early and we just didn’t have any kind of push-back whatsoever. The second game, I thought we played a lot better. The score was 4-1 but it was a closer game than that. We had a better effort.” Sunday’s game saw the Kings out-shoot the Chiefs 35-14 and outscore the visitors 3-0 through two periods. In the third period, Langley’s Josh Myers scored with 2:47 remaining in regulation to narrow the Chiefs’ deficit to 3-1. The Kings scored an empty-net marker with 47 seconds to go in the game to cap the scoring. Chiefs goaltender Cole Huggins had a solid outing, stopping 37 of 40 shots. Powell River Kings 6, Chiefs 1 In a game eerily reminiscent of the BCHL playoffs this past March, the Kings jumped ahead 4-1 after 40 minutes of play before scoring the only two goals of the third period.

The game was an unwelcome case of déja vu for the Chiefs, who were unable to solve Powell River’s defence during the 2010 post-season, and were subsequently dispatched by the Kings in four straight games in their best-ofseven, second round series. In the weekend series’ opener Saturday, the Chiefs’ lone goal came off the stick of Myers, who scored at the 16:49 mark of the second period to slice the Kings’ lead to 3-1. The Kings scored with 32 seconds left in the middle frame to make it 4-1. The hosts added two more markers in the third stanza, including a goal 1:11 into the period, to seal the win. The Kings outshot the Chiefs 40-21 on the night.

Chiefs 3, Nanaimo Clippers 2 The Chiefs returned to Frank Crane Arena, the scene of the crime – the “crime” being an 11-5 thumping absorbed from Nanaimo the last time the teams met “You are on Oct. 17 – and took only as revenge on good as the home team. your last “We got game.” off to a very slow start in Harvey Smyl that game,” Smyl said. “We were slow to get going, every period, but then we played better and better. In the third we had some good spark going.” Myers scored twice in the third period, including the game winner with 58 seconds remaining in regulation, to lift the Chiefs to a come-from-behind, one-goal victory Friday. The Clippers carried a 2-1 lead into the third period. Myers, who recently inked

an NCAA scholarship with Merrimack College starting next fall, found the net twice as the Chiefs kicked off their threegame road trip on a high note. Chiefs’ captain Trevor Gerling opened the scoring 4:12 into the game. The Clippers answered by scoring just 20 seconds after Gerling’s goal to tie the game at 1-1, and tallied the only goal of the second period to move ahead by a goal.

Eagles in town

The Chiefs will try to get back on a winning track Thursday when they host the Surrey Eagles at the Langley Events Centre. Game time is 7 p.m. Smyl, who noted that the Chiefs made “some strides” in team discipline over the weekend, didn’t mince words in terms of what he wants to see out of his team when they clash with their Lower Mainland rivals from Surrey Thursday. “You are only as good as your last game and come Thursday we have to be a heck of a lot better than we have been.”

Trinity Western University soccer

Win over Pandas lifts Spartans into playoffs TWU heads into the post-season on a threematch winning streak.

NOT

The Trinity Western University Spartans clinched a Canada West women’s soccer playoff spot Saturday afternoon at Foote Field in Edmonton, and they did it in style. A 2-1 win over the No.1 ranked University of Alberta Pandas secured a post-season position, and second place in the conference standings, for the Spartans. The Pandas suffered their first defeat of the season when freshman Trinity

Western defender Jennifer Castillo scored the winning goal in the 88th minute. “Really proud of the girls – our back four showed a lot of passion and heart and Jill Dietrich was fantastic,” TWU head coach Graham Roxburgh said, following the match. “Alberta is a very good team and we were in tough today, but when you work hard good things can happen.” Alberta, which dropped to 10-1-2, will host the women’s Canada West Final Four championship Nov. 6-7 at Foote Field.

Help us prevent seniors’ isolation and loneliness.

Trinity Western forward Daniela Gerig put her team on the board in the 41st minute when the ball landed on her feet after bouncing out of the hands of Huskie keeper Marissa Wilford, who had stopped a shot from TWU midfielder Melissa Mobilio. “Daniella was justly rewarded for her work…” Roxburgh said. Forward Alicia Tesan scored the Spartans’ insurance goal in the 88th minute when she was sent through on a counter attack breakaway. TWU keeper Kristen Funk made 13 saves to earn the shutout victory. The Spartans head to this weekend’s Final Four as the second-place team, behind the Pandas. Fraser Valley qualifies as the third place team and UBC as the fourth. Sunday’s loss dashed the hopes of a post-season spot for the Huskies. TWU men’s soccer For the first time since 2004, the Spartans will not be at the Canadian Interuniversity Sport men’s soccer championship as two late first half goals gave the University of Saskatchewan Huskies a 20 victory over TWU. Sunday’s loss in Saskatoon ends TWU’s 2010 season, while the win sends the Huskies to the Final Four for the first time since 2003. TWU ended up in fifth place in the standings as they miss the Canada West Final Four for the first time since 2002. “We made two marking errors [and] couldn’t recover from the two first half goals. We played desperation soccer the final half hour and we did everything but score,” TWU head coach Pat Rohla said. “Bitterly disappointing game, the boys are gutted, I feel for them. Hopefully we can remember this and move forward.” The Huskies entered the game two points ahead of the Spartans and needed a win or a tie to move on to the playoffs. Trinity Western needed a win to take the spot. The Huskies finish the regular season at 7-4-3, while the Spartans ended up 5-5-4.

Roll Ends

TWU completed the sweep Saturday with another 3-1 victory, winning 17-25, 25-15, 25-20 and 2520 at War Memorial Gym. “We started a little slower and it took us a set and a half to get into it before we started playing with passion and emotion, but then we found our rhythm and our flow and played better,” TWU head coach Ryan Hofer said. “We knew it was going to be tough going against a good team in their gym. It is great start to the season and we’re excited to come away from two wins.” TWU men’s hockey The Spartans scored three secondperiod goals on their way to a muchneeded 3-2 win over the University of the Fraser Valley Sunday at the Abbotsford Events and Sports Centre. “We had a solid game from everyone,” TWU head coach Dwayne Lowdermilk said. “[Goaltender] JP [Chapman] had another good night, the forwards did their job driving the net and getting their shots, and the defence played well.” The win improves the Spartans’ record to 2-4-0 and snaps a fourgame losing streak. In their season opener the Spartans defeated UFV 5-4 at the Langley Events Centre (LEC). The loss moves UFV to 0-8-0. Nathan Wiebe, Sam Ahlgren, and Robert Vos scored the Spartan goals. The Spartans were outshot 40-32, but their powerplay, which went two for four, and the goaltending of Chapman were the difference. The two teams match up again Friday. Opening faceoff at the LEC is 7 p.m.

The host UBC Thunderbirds surprised the Trinity Western University men’s volleyball team in the first set, but the Spartans rallied to win the next three and sweep the opening weekend with four-set win Saturday at Vancouver’s War Memorial Gym. “It was a really good match tonight. UBC fixed some things and improved their level of play. Their emotion and intensity was much better, which in turn forced our guys to find a new gear, both in toughness and in execution. Our guys were resilient, figured it out, and then pushed back and played inspired volleyball to win a tough match on the road,” TWU head coach Ben Josephson said, after the game. “A lot of emotions are involved in this rivalry and our guys matched what UBC brought to earn a two-match victory on the road.” Rudy Verhoeff led the Spartans with 18 kills and 10 digs, while Josh Doornenbal and Nicholas Del Bianco each chipped in 13 kills. ••• Friday at War Memorial, the Thunderbirds dropped their season opener against last year’s Canadian Interuniversity Sport (CIS) silver medal-winning Spartans, who rode a hot offence to a three-set sweep. Scores were 25-12, 25-20, and 25-17. ••• The Spartans now head home to host Thompson Rivers Friday and Saturday at the Langley Events Centre.

TWU men’s basketball Saturday night, the Spartans dropped their second game to UBC in as many nights as, much like the previous day, they fell behind early. Despite a strong second half, TWU ended up losing 90-77 at the Langley Events Centre (LEC). For TWU, the loss drops their record to 2-2 after starting the year with a pair of road wins over Lethbridge. The difference in the game was simple. The T-Birds shot 52.5 per cent from the field while the Spartans managed to shoot just 39.4 per cent. “It looked like it was heading down the same path [as Friday night] but then we made that run and I thought the character of the guys to fight back was imperative for our success in the future,” Spartans coach Scott Allen said, after Saturday’s game. “We have to go through some tough times and those valleys right now before we can head up to the top of the mountain. We know we’re heading that way and that’s exciting. Every quarter we get better and more familiar with what we’re doing.” The Spartans’ Jacob Doerksen led TWU in scoring with 17 points, and his nine rebounds tied him for the team-lead with Tyrell Mara. Kyle Coston had 15 points while Calvin Westbrook had 13 for the Spartans. ••• On Friday, the Spartans lost their home opener 91-69 in front of a CISrecord crowd of more than 1,700 at the LEC. TWU women’s volleyball For only the second time in their history of their program, the Spartans swept a weekend series at UBC.
