Canada’s Christine Nesbitt leads Annette Gerritsen of the Netherlands en route to a gold medal in the women’s 1,000-metre finals at the Richmond Oval Thursday.

Nesbitt powers to gold Benjamin Alldritt

balldritt@nsnews.com Canada’s female speed skaters continued to excel Thursday, with Christine Nesbitt winning gold in the 1,000-metres. Nesbitt was off the podium pace through the 200-metre and 600-metre splits, but poured it on in the finish to pip Dutch silver medallist Annette Gerritsen by two hundredths of a second. Laurine van Riessen, also of the Netherlands, won bronze. Only six hundredths of a second back from Van Riessen was Canada’s Kristina Groves, who won bronze in the 3,000-metre event on Sunday. Throw in Marianne St. Gelais’ 500metre short track silver and you have a very

successful start for Canada’s lightning ladies. Nesbitt, a 24-year-old from London, Ont., holds the track record at the Richmond Olympic Oval and has won all four World Cup races at 1,000 metres. But her slow start seemed to have opened the door for the Dutch women. “Today, really I didn’t have a great race, physically,” she told reporters after leaving the ice. “I could feel I wasn’t skating well. But I just kept going until the end and it paid off.” Nesbitt and Groves will both race in the 1,500-metres on Sunday, Feb. 21, and Groves will also vie for the 5,000-metre title on Wednesday, Feb. 24. Canada’s Shannon Rempel finished 21st on Thursday and Brittany Schussler placed 25th.

balldritt@nsnews.com American figure skater Evan Lysacek upset Olympic champion Evgeni Plushenko of Russia to win gold in men’s figure skating. Lysacek was close on the Russian’s heels after Tuesday’s short program. At the Pacific Coliseum on Thursday, Plushenko produced his trademark series of powerful jumps, but the judges preferred Lysacek’s wellrounded artistic performance. Lysacek did not attempt any of the quadruple elements once thought to be a gold medal requirement. Japan’s Daisuke Takahashi took bronze. Canada’s 19-year-old phenom Patrick Chan finished fifth after falling on one triple axel and labouring his landing on other elements. The Americans were strong in women’s halfpipe snowboarding, claiming silver and bronze with Hannah Teeter and Kelly Clark. But the gold medal run was from Australian Torah Bright. Mercedes Nicoll, born in North Vancouver before moving to Whistler, placed sixth, putting down a strong first run in the finals before falling on her second. “That was my best score ever,” Nicoll said. Thursday was also a three-medal day for Norway,

Canada vs. U.S. a hot ticket A Vancouver man is suing a ticket broker for $60,000 after his hockey ticket purchase failed to go through, according to the Province newspaper. In his claim to B.C. Supreme Court, Patrick O’Brien said that he bought tickets to Sunday’s Canada-U.S. hockey game for $4,600 from AllStar Tickets Inc., only to find later that the tickets were sold to someone else. AllStar claims that O’Brien failed to sign the necessary paperwork in time to complete the purchase.

Gold medal for Olympic spirit That might sound Hokey, but Seycove Secondary has worked hard to win a Provincial competition

VANOC says empty seats at sold-out Olympic events are often those reserved for sponsors, athletes and the press who may be showing up late to competitions. After empty seats were visible during televised figure skating events this week, the organizing committee is considering reducing the number of reserved seats. Sponsors and the press have been warned to use the seats or risk losing them.

Spirit Square comes alive at 6 and 9 p.m. daily with a unique 12-minute performance created specially for West Vancouver 2010 by URP Event Production and Creative Services.

They’re dancing on the roof

Bethany Lindsay

blindsay@nsnews.com Each night as visitors walk into the West Vancouver Community Centre, they’ll be greeted by a dozen dancers performing on a series of stages inside and outside the building — including on its roof. Throughout the Olympics, the Canadian Winter Sport Showcase is being performed twice every night at 6 and 9 p.m. by dancers from

URP Event Production and Theatrical Services, formerly Uncle Randy Productions. URP Director Richard Berg said that the 12-minute show was designed to encompass the architecture of the new community centre. “It was a piece that was commissioned and choreographed for this exact location,” Berg said. “We actually incorporate the architecture of the building into the show.” The 12 dancers, selected

from more than 100 who auditioned, perform on stages throughout the venue to welcome visitors to nightly musical performances. “One of those stages is actually on the top of the building itself,” Berg said. “This performance encompasses the inside of the community centre as well as the outside.” During the performance a video component is projected onto the building and the dancers are illuminated by a

sophisticated lighting system as they perform to a medley of Canadian tunes. “There’s a very large technology component,” Berg said. Although the scheduled two performances each night could be taxing, Berg said that the dancers are holding up very well. “They’re all good so far. They’re young and healthy and energetic like I remember being. . . . They’re giving it all

As well as putting together the dance showcase, URP is in charge of production management for the entire Spirit Square, and all of its performances. “We really took the community centre space and made it a proper concert venue,” Berg said. “The venue itself has allowed us a lot of freedom to be creative in there.”

blindsay@nsnews.com SEYCOVE secondary’s Olympic spirit has earned it the gold medal in the province’s Spirit School program, earning the school a $7,000 prize package, including a day of a celebration featuring Games mascots and Olympians. “I’m extremely proud to have earned this recognition for our staff and students,” said Seycove principal Karim Hachlaf. “Ultimately, 2010 is going to be a school year we’re never going to forget.” The B.C. Spirit School program encouraged schools across the country to show their enthusiasm by starting programs focused on healthy living or sustainability, holding Olympics-themed events, or participating in Games-related educational programs. English teacher Petra Willemse supervised Seycove’s spirit club, which set out to get the school involved in as many eligible programs as possible. “We did a lot of usual things, but just amped them up for the Olympics,” Willemse said. For example, “We always decorate school doors for Christmas, so this year we decorated with an Olympic theme.” Willemse added that cultural and historical education were cornerstones of Seycove’s success. “One of the more spectacular events was we did have a Second World War vet come in and talk to the kids about his experiences,” Willemse said. Meanwhile, an eighth-grade class exchanged e-mails with a class in the Netherlands and learned about the liberation of that country from German rule. “That’s the culture piece that you wouldn’t necessarily think of,” Willemse said. Grade-10 student Amelia Hill was in charge of making posters for the Seycove spirit club. She said she found out about the school’s gold medal on Feb. 10, the day of the torch relay. “I was so excited. I was like, are you serious?” She said that she and her classmates followed the Olympic torch as it wound its way across the North Shore, catching the parade at three separate locations. “Our whole school went to cheer it on.” The school also boasted two runners during the Olympic torch relay, and will supply a third for the Paralympic run, Hill said. She said that with the Games finally open, the club has no plans to stop rallying spirits at Seycove. “Everybody kind of getting involved for one cause and getting super excited makes it all worth while,” Hill said.

Swiss give Canada a scare

photo Cindy Goodman

balldritt@nsnews.com Canada’s men’s hockey team couldn’t beat the Swiss in 60 minutes, or 65 minutes, or after three tries in the shootout, but Sidney Crosby’s sudden-death goal finally let the assembled faithful let out a collective sigh of relief. Thursday’s game at Canada Hockey Place started well enough for the Canadians, with Dany Heatley beating Anaheim Ducks netminder Jonas Hiller halfway through the first period. Martin Brodeur was between the pipes for Canada. The Swiss side clearly aimed to play a physical game, drawing three penalties in the first period, and possibly deserved one or two more. But Canada couldn’t solve Hiller on any of the man advantages. Yannick Weber’s hooking penalty gave the home side Sidney Crosby gives the fans at Canada Hockey Place a reason to cheer after scoring the deciding another crack at it only 27 goal of the game in the fourth round of a shootout. seconds into the second, and Hiller continued his strong form into the shootout, smothering Weber had barely sat down in Crosby at the post and stopping shots from Jonathan Toews and the box before Patrick Marleau scored.
