The open space behind Gape Epstein and Rob Wickson at Gorge Road Park will become Saanich's next community allotment garden, the first new municipal garden built in decades. Epstien, co-ordinator of the garden committee with the Gorge Tillicum Community Association and Wickson, president of the GTCA, spearheaded the drive to convert 1,600 square meters of field to about 60 garden boxes.

Garden to grow in Saanich’s Gorge Park Field to become allotment garden run by Gorge Tillicum Community Association Edward Hill News staff
With water views and bounded by a row of maple trees, a grassy field in Gorge Park in Saanich will become a community allotment garden in the wake of a 15 month effort driven by community volunteers. A park for more than a 110 years and once a major recreation spot for swimming in the
Gorge, Saanich council on Monday approved giving over 1,600 square metres of Gorge Park for a garden. It will give $20,000 in funding to prepare the 60-bed site, likely next spring. Volunteers Gabe Epstein, with the transitional garden committee and Rob Wickson, president of the Gorge Tillicum Community Association, led the effort to establish the garden, based on Saanich planning documents
that call for community gardens in each of the 12 neighbourhood zones. “When we first started the vision was about beds to grow food. As we had more meetings, it became a more diverse vision,” Epstein said. “We are trying to establish the garden with strong links to the park and with the wider community.” The Gorge Park Community Garden is the first new allotment garden established in Saanich in more than 30 years, although the Agnes Street garden was expanded a decade ago. The
Gorge Park garden is designed without fences and as wheelchair accessible, and will have allotment for rent and community spaces for all. “There will be community space where anyone can harvest. There will be a range from personal use to community use,” Epstein said. “There will be no locked gates. The idea is a porous garden, not only for members but for everybody else. We envision a place where people can come in and sit and talk.” “I hope to bring my guitar
down,” Wickson said. Over the past year, the community groups found neighbourhood support for the garden through workshops, information sessions and a survey, but they had their share of opposition too. Some in the area feared a garden would dominate the park’s open space and didn’t want to lose the field for walking their dogs. Some criticized Saanich and the community groups for a lack of public consultation. Please see: Garden, Page A5

School district ends ban on Wi-Fi for K-5 grades Kyle Slavin News staff
A nearly three-year-long moratorium on the installation of Wi-Fi in elementary schools in Greater Victoria was lifted this week, although schools now have to consult with parents before installing wireless signals. The Greater Victoria school board voted 5-4 Monday to allow Wi-Fi in K-5 schools, so long as the school conducts a consultation process with the community first. “We want to do it as safely as possible, but ultimately we believe parents have the responsibility to make choices for what’s the safest things for their kid,” said board chair Peg Orcherton. In January 2011, following a surge in concerns from a small but vocal group of parents on alleged health effects of Wi-Fi, the board formed a committee to explore the topic and the moratorium was implemented. A Victoria Confederation of Parent Advisory Councils survey showed 53 per cent of parents don’t have health concerns surrounding Wi-Fi. (Twenty-two per cent had concerns.) Sixty-one per cent of

The group uses the trap to count fish, mainly coho and send them on their way upstream to spawn.

parents said the decision to install Wi-Fi should be made by the school community. Superintendent John Gaiptman said Wi-Fi is in all of the district’s middle and secondary schools (installed before the moratorium), and a community consultation process was done in each of those cases. “This isn’t new. What was new was the fact that we certainly consulted more regarding elementary schools,” he said. Early next month he plans to meet with elementary principals to discuss “what it means to have support.” Tery Edwards, principal of Saanich’s Northridge elementary, says his staff is “champing at the bit” to begin the process of consulting with the school community. “It’s about time,” Edwards said. “(Having wireless Internet) just opens up everything to us. It opens up a whole new world in using technology to enhance student learning. Our staff is using iPads in classrooms right now, finding apps that are appropriate for their grade level and integrating them into their (lessons).” kslavin@saanichnews.com
Saanich to send organic waste to Cobble Hill Saanich’s organic waste will journey over the Malahat next year after the municipality awarded a Cobble Hill company a five year, $4.85-million contract.

People use compost bags and put plastic bags underneath and that becomes an issue.” The best organic waste, he said, has plenty of carbon content: grass clippings and newspaper. “I don’t want composting bags, I want paper. It’s a good carbon source,” he said. “The most important is the yard waste because of the carbon content. No yard waste, no compost.” editor@saanichnews.com

Laing said the yard is licensed by the Ministry of Environment to take about 18,000 tonnes per year and the contract from Saanich would allow him in improve technology and scale up to 22,000 tonnes.

Restorative justice avoids slow court system, promotes empathy between victim and offender Kyle Slavin News staff
Should a drunk teenager who vandalizes his neighbours’ lawns one Halloween night pay for his poor decision for the rest of his life? Should a hungry 90-year-old who gets caught stealing some groceries be dragged through a year-long court process? Police agencies in Canada this week are touting the benefits of restorative justice, which provides first-time offenders who are willing to take responsibility for their actions with a chance to avoid a criminal record. “It’s a process that really looks at crime as being against community, rather than being against an individual or a business,” said Geoff Moffett, community justice initiatives case worker for the John Howard Society, which administers the restorative justice program for Saanich police files. “The restorative piece looks at, ‘How do you restore balance to the community?’ So looking at ways of paying back the community rather than serving a sentence or punishment for something you did against an individual.” Sgt. Alan Gurzinski, Saanich’s sergeant in charge of crime prevention, says investigating officers have the authority to decide which files can be diverted through restorative justice.
Christmas parade set for Saturday
File photo
For minor crimes, police and social agencies are keen to use restorative justice, where the offender takes responsibility and tries to make amends, rather than facing a criminal record. “The offences are typically on the low end of the scale, such as shoplifting, mischiefs, graffiti – things like that,” he said. “But they have to be willing to be responsible for what they’ve done, and in some cases sit down with the people that are affected there and come to some kind of an agreement.” Moffett says there are three routes the restorative justice process can take through John Howard: diversion; victim-offender mediation; and community forums. “We’re not in the business of shaming anyone; it’s really about paying back and kind of giving back to a community that’s been wronged,” he said. “The idea is you make a mistake, you shouldn’t get punished for the rest of your life. So here’s an opportunity to give back and understand that it’s quite the gift that you’re being given.”
The jolly old elf himself, the global CEO of Christmas, will be front and centre during the annual Island Farms Santa’s Light Parade. Thousands of Greater Victoria residents of all ages will line the sidewalks of Government Street tomorrow (Nov. 23) to get a glimpse of Mr.
Successful completion of the voluntary process results in no criminal record. “The consequences of having a criminal record are far-reaching. I think it’s to the advantage of the individual to go through this route if it’s offered,” Gurzinski said. “When you consider jobs, volunteer positions, coaching your child’s soccer team in the future, or volunteering for Cubs, if you have a criminal record that may prevent you from travelling. When you explain these consequences to a first-time offender, the lights go on and they think, ‘This is my one chance to make things right and to get back on track.’” Kelli Moorhouse, chair of Camosun College’s criminal justice program teaches a course on restorative justice. She says the biggest beneficiaries are the victims.
Claus and his reindeer, along with dozens of other floats, bands and community group members decked out with Christmas costumes and lighting. The parade kicks off at 5:45 p.m. from the intersection of Belleville and Government streets and rolls through
“It’s the need for victims to be able to make closure and move on with their life. The focus (of restorative justice) is on the victim and looking and repairing the harm done to them,” she said. “The idea is if people who commit crime can develop some degree of empathy, we can move to more lawabiding behaviour. The research has shown, with respect to the offender, the outcome is that you don’t tend to see people committing further crime, if they develop the empathy piece.” Const. Mike Russell, spokesperson for the Victoria Police Department, says officers see the value in diverting files through restorative justice. “Seeing the effect on offenders and victims has been very powerful for a lot of our officers,” he said. “To put everybody in a room to talk about the impacts of crime, which is something we don’t specifically talk about in the criminal justice realm, is very powerful. A willingness from both parties to see this through leads to a conclusion that’s more meaningful on both sides – that’s where the strength of this program is.” Restorative Justice Victoria administers the program for VicPD. Moffett is set up in the lobby of the Saanich Police Department (760 Vernon Ave.) this week to talk about restorative justice. He says having a week to highlight the program is “a way of getting alternative thinking about justice out there and presenting the idea that not everyone should be demonized for a mistake that they made. “Justice isn’t black and white. There is a grey and I think restorative justice fits nicely into that grey area.” kslavin@saanichnews.com

Man arrested for poppy box theft
An arrest has been made in the case of the poppy box stolen from a View Royal convenience store on Nov. 3. The Regional Crime Unit nabbed 50-year-old offender Darcy Bruce Morgan as he left his apartment on Craigflower Road in Victoria on Nov. 15. Police identified Morgan using in-store surveillance footage provided to the West Shore RCMP. The box was stolen from the Mac’s convenience store at 1510 Admirals Rd. A female accomplice distracted the clerk while the man stole the box,

making off with cash intended for the Royal Canadian Legion to help support veterans. Morgan has been charged with theft under $5,000. Based on his criminal record and other pending charges, he remains in custody, at least until his next court date on Nov. 28. Officers believe they have also identified the woman who allegedly helped in the theft, but Staff Sgt. Gary Schenk said more analysis of the video will be necessary. “The investigation, with respect to her, is continuing,” he said.

Garden aims to build community Continued from Page A1
Saanich Mayor Frank Leonard said some residents had legitimate concerns about the loss of open space, but others used the debate as an opportunity for ongoing criticism of the Saanich parks department. “Others were out to rehearse the tennis meeting,” Leonard said, referring to the controversial clay courts tennis proposal at Cedar Hill recreation. “They are very active on the clay courts debate and migrate it to everything else in the parks department. I think it’s night and day. “Volunteers responded to our initiative of wanting a community garden. And they get Saanich citizens criticizing them for doing it. I think the allotment garden proposal is on the right track.”
Wickson said the community needs to go through a healing process and people who have been opposed will be invited to further planning and discussion meetings. The garden will draw more people to the park, Wickson and Epstein say, helps people get to know their neighbours, and ultimately building a stronger sense of community. “It combats isolation. The place will draw people together, especially those living in condos and apartments who might not know their neighbours,” Epstein said. “This is an opportunity for people bump into each other.” The organizers say a path around the garden will be wheelchair accessible and planter boxes built at varying heights for accessibility – lower for children and children in
wheelchairs and higher for people with mobility limitations. “There is a lot of work to create a garden accessible to everybody and do special adaptations to the site,” Epstein said. “It costs us more but we’re committed to making it accessible to everybody. We’ve got to do that.” Under an agreement with Saanich, the GTCA will assume liability and financial responsibility for running the garden, and a Gorge Park Community Garden committee will build, fundraise and manage the space. The garden has 29 people signed up for allotment spaces, although remaining spaces will likely go fast. Other allotment gardens have waiting lists of a year or more.

Tough decisions needed by Ferries No changes to how B.C. Ferries delivers its services will ever meet with total approval. Critics of the proposal to charge seniors halfprice passenger rates during the week instead of giving them free passage see the decision as gouging a vulnerable segment of society. But half price is still Ferry corporation a generous discount. The perk of free can’t be all things mid-week passage to all people for seniors may have made moral sense, if not business sense, when the corporation was in a better financial position, but not now. B.C. Ferries’ proposal to cut little-used early morning and late-night runs on smaller routes makes sense, as does maintaining service at busier commuter times. Some argue that any cut to service is a blow to the original B.C. Ferries concept of extending the coastal highway system to the growing number of people living on smaller islands. But those residents, many of whom commute to work on Vancouver Island or the mainland, have chosen that lifestyle and it comes with costs. Forcing the majority to pay through everhigher fares to service the minority doesn’t make sense. The idea of putting slot machines on ferries working the Swartz Bay-Tsawwassen run is an insult to passengers maxed out with the number of extra-cost services available on the ships. While revenue from these runs has subsidized the smaller runs for years, enough is enough. It’s time to stop looking for more ways to gouge the already cash-strapped ridership. With the balance sheets bleeding red, B.C. Ferries must make some hard choices. Complicating that scenario is the fact the corporation is quasi-private and serves two masters, the public and government, which is the public in business suits. As such, the need to find workable compromises is heightened. In the end, the main objective is stabilization of fares for all ferry riders. If that takes cutting some low-usage sailings and asking seniors to pay a little more, we’re all for it.

Replace B.C. utilities watchdog A few years ago the B.C. Utilities Commission turned down B.C. Hydro’s request to build the Site C dam on the Peace River in Northern B.C. Since then, Hydro and the B.C. Liberal government have simply bypassed the commission. I used to think that the utilities commission’s mandate was to gather relevant information in order to make knowledgeable decisions and to protect the rights of the public. Minister of Energy and Mines Bill Bennett, in discussions regarding “smart meter” opt outs, recently stated that the BCUC would obey the province and B.C. Hydro and do as they are told. Isn’t it time to institute a non-biased and free-thinking watchdog to protect the public interest? Perhaps one with the unwavering honesty of our previous auditor general? David Waterhouse Saanich

while staying within budgetary constraints?” Let me restate that in language everyone understands. As a Saanich taxpayer I want the biggest bang for my buck. I want to ensure that my parks and recreation tax dollars are being well spent to provide services to the community. Exactly who are these community members and what needs are not currently being met? It is families with young children (and grandparents) who have no playground area in Cedar Hill Park. Beacon Hill has two new, beautiful playground areas. Cedar Hill Park has nothing; no outdoor facilities for families and young children. Currently there are no outdoor facilities for seniors with mobility issues or persons with disabilities. Cedar Hill Park has wonderful walking trails, but they are not designed for strollers, young children or people with mobility issues. I would like to see an attractive new playground alongside groomed walking trails for families, seniors and people with disabilities. This could include a reclaimed wetland “garden” featuring indigenous species along parts of the trails. This proposal provides the greatest “substantial benefit” for the largest number of community members, while actually costing

Future of capital commission land unclear End of PCC ‘not much of a loss,’ mayor says Daniel Palmer News staff
The B.C. government’s intention to dissolve the Crown corporation responsible for Victoria’s most prized buildings is raising more questions than answers among local politicians and business owners. Energy Minister Bill Bennett revealed Tuesday government plans to axe the Provincial Capital Commission next spring to save about $1 million annually as part of the province’s core review. The PCC owns and leases downtown gems like St. Ann’s Academy, the former CPR Steamship terminal building, Crystal Garden and Ship’s Point in the Inner Harbour. Saanich has long-term leases on part of Cuthbert Holmes Park from the PCC, and all of Glencoe Cove-Kwatsech Park in Gordon Head. Land parcels in View Royal and Langford are under similar agreements. Saanich Mayor Frank Leonard doesn’t anticipate any changes and said the parkland is effectively owned by the province. “I think the land has always been provincial government. They’re just pulling it back into government rather than an arm’s
length commission,” he said. In terms of dissolving the PCC, Leonard said the commission is a shadow of its former self, which in the past was active in promoting the Capital Region, and involved in projects like building the Blenkinsop Trestle and rehabilitating St. Ann’s Academy. “Where we are at today, it’s not much of a loss. (The PCC) has really just maintained a property management function for recent years. I remember when it was a dynamic body with a vision for the region,” he said. “Clearly those days are long gone. Pulling into government will make little difference. It’s a long way from what it could have been.”
Did you know? n The Provincial Capital Commission owns 12 hectares of the 25.7 ha Cuthbert Holmes Park near Tillicum Centre.

Musicians Maureen Washington and Daniel Cook are singing in the rain as they get ready to perform for the opening celebration of the Broadmead Village renovation.
Broadmead Village wraps up facelift Broadmead Village is throwing a public celebration on Saturday (Nov. 23) to cap an $8.2 million, year-long renovation. In an effort to update its image in a highly competitive shopping centre market, the dated, 20-year-old centre has updated its storefronts and building facades, increased store space and updated its breezeway pedestrian area. It now features a fountain,
and covered and open outdoor seating. “Bringing people together at Broadmead Village was one of the main objectives of the renovation, so this seems like a perfect way to mark the completion of the project,” says Alison Miles Cork, senior asset manager with Grosvenor Americas, owner of Broadmead Villge. “We’re excited to host this event and welcome the com-
munity.” Tomorrow from noon to 4 p.m., the centre will host entertainers, magicians, jugglers, including the Taiko Drummers and Island Hoppers jump rope team. Musical acts include the O’Brien Family, the Maureen Washington Quintet and the Soul Shakers. See broadmeadvillage.ca. editor@saanichnews.com

Esquimalt digs in for better sewage deal Daniel Palmer News staff
A tentative deal meant to entice Esquimalt council into approving the regional sewage treatment plant looks dead in the water, but the township isn’t giving up hope yet of a sweeter deal. Esquimalt and Capital Regional District staff spent a month negotiating a plan for a wastewater treatment facility at McLoughlin Point, but regional politicians punted the idea back to CRD staff Nov. 13 because it lacked concrete cost estimates for barging materials to the site. Esquimalt’s wish list includes a $100,000 waterfront pathway around McLoughlin Point; a $100,000 allowance for public art; greater setbacks from other properties and the roadway; upgraded pedestrian and cycling pathways along Lyall Street; the barging of all materials to a
constructed dock to avoid truck traffic; and $55,000 annually for five years as a community impact mitigation fee. The township also wants an ongoing community liaison committee and strict odour monitoring at the site once operational. “CRD staff agreed to those things, and they agreed to those things within the understanding of their budget,” said Esquimalt Mayor Barb Desjardins. Further negotiations will likely push rezoning approval into 2014 and impact the CRD’s project timeline. Once approved, Esquimalt will still need to undertake public hearings with many residents who now distrust CRD motives, said Coun. Dave Hodgins. “The public I’ve heard from have no support in what’s being proposed at all ... There’s absolutely no trust between many members of the public

and the CRD,” he said. Under provincial law, B.C. Environment Minister Mary Polak could intervene to force rezoning, but she currently has no plans to do so, said a ministry spokesperson. “At this time, the provincial government has not set any deadline for an agreement between the CRD and Esquimalt, but does stand by the approved schedule for treatment and continues to work with all parties,” the spokesperson said. CRD board chair Alistair Bryson said he sees the rationale in providing Esquimalt with incentives to host the sewage facility, but potential cost increases are concerning. “Obviously as decisions become delayed, it tightens up the timeframe for implementation,” he said. The current timeline calls for construction to begin next summer at McLoughlin Point, while the overall project is scheduled for completion by 2018. The CRD committee responsible for sewage treatment is next scheduled to meet Dec. 11, but will likely meet earlier, Desjardins said. dpalmer@vicnews.com

livier Clements is back home and he’s pretty excited about it. The Victoria-bred trumpet and flugelhorn player says he has been incredibly busy touring with stars of the local indie music scene, such as Aidan Knight and Justin Rutledge. “We had shows everywhere between Victoria and Winnipeg,” Knight said from on the road in Abbotsford at about 10:30 a.m. “The whole band is still asleep but I was able to sneak out to take this phone call.” With upcoming runs with the Victoria Jazz Orchestra and the Victoria Operatic Society for its run of Annie, Clements will now have a chance to hang up his hat, albeit with a busy local schedule. With all that’s going on in his career, however, perhaps the most exciting is developments with his fusion passion project Olivier Clements and Dissonant Histories, which has a rare live show and a first album release in the near
future. The band will be taking to the stage at Hermann’s Jazz Club on Tuesday, Nov. 26. The event will mark only the third time the band has played for the public. A full schedule for Clements and the challenges of co-ordinating seven other busy musicians has put the project on the back burner for the most part. But that’s about to change. As an eight-piece band with lots of brass and a three-piece rhythm section, the group plays an experimental yet accessible brand of music which comes from the seemingly mismatched musical directions of its leader. Clements writes original material for the group, taking influences from a variety of sources and writing a brand of music that’s hard to pin down. “I’ve got all these weird influences that are all over the place, and I’m trying to make music that’s not awful,” Clements laughed. “It’s like indie-folk aesthetic with hip-hop grooves.” While raised and trained as a jazz musician, Clements has also toured extensively with indie pop and folk
groups, and also holds a blooming love of somewhat offbeat hip-hop, such as MF Doom, and classical music, such as Phillip Glass. “(It’s) trying to figure out where I stand in all this,” Clements said. “I’m not trying to blend all these styles together, I’m more trying to reconcile them.” A growing dissatisfaction with the direction of modern jazz music also spurred the creative change of pace. “I was getting really tired of this idea where the band plays a 30-second melody and then everybody takes a 20-minute solo,” Clements said. “There was a conscious movement on my part to try to make this about a band … make it more about eight people working together to make these songs.” Clements has also recorded an album of the Dissonant Histories material with other musicians in Toronto, which will be released in February 2014 simply titled Olivier Clements and Dissonant Histories. With the album coming out, Clements hopes to start touring with the band and playing a lot more live gigs. The show starts at 8 p.m. Tickets are $18, $14 for students and are available at Ditch Records and olivierclements.com.

Dr. William Stehbens, Professor of Anatomy at Auckland University in New Zealand emphasized that coronary arteries are under more pressure than any other arteries in the body. After all, they’re situated in the heart’s muscle, not in the big toe. Moreover they’re under constant pressure while the heart beats 100,000 times every 24 hours, or 37 million times a year, and 2.2 billion times if you live to 70 years of age.

Vitamin C is required to manufacture healthy collagen, the glue that holds coronary cells together, just like mortar is needed for bricks. Lysine, like steel rods in cement, makes collagen stronger.

Shows sell out and Bottomsworth estimates the number of women in the audience is only about 65 per cent. of course, that says nothing about the sexual orientation of the audience, which is as mixed as the cast itself. But it isn’t always that way. “one guy slammed his beer bottle down and left,” says Bottomsworth of one of their less positive reviews. “But i just read a study that said the more homophobic you are, the closer you are to being homosexual. We’re totally secure with ourselves.

Health authority seeks public guidance Kyle Wells News staff
Island Health is thinking about the future and wants the public’s input on what direction it needs to take. The health jurisdiction, also known as Vancouver Island Health Authority, is developing a new five-year plan to help guide its activities on the road to 2018. “We do it periodically and it provides us with a strong sense of where we’re going, what our focus and priorities are,” said Island Health spokesperson Sarah Plank. “It helps to guide the decisions that we
make around healthcare delivery across the region.” The authority has already identified what it sees as the pressing issues coming into the next five years. Population growth, changes and aging are all seen as factors which will influence how health care is delivered in the future. The population of the Island is expected to rise in general, and especially in specific communities. The rapid growth of the West Shore, for instance, is cited as an upcoming challenge, with the population expected to grow by 10 per cent by 2018. Other areas, such as the West Coast of
Vancouver Island are expected to decrease in population, by about 3.5 per cent. These fluctuations could lead to a need to change the delivery model and shift services from certain areas of the Island to others. The “uneven distribution of health,” as Island Health calls it, is another concern. Life expectancy for First Nations people is six years shorter than for other residents and the rates for chronic disease are higher. “There are a few challenges,” Plank said. “We want to do things better and we also want to do better things, to make sure
what we’re doing is having the greatest impact.” Island Health is now turning to the public for input on the already identified areas of interest, as well as new ideas on the needs of specific regions. Open houses will be held in Victoria on Nov. 26 at the Sandman Inn (2852 Douglas St.), in Sidney on Nov. 27 at the Mary Winspear Centre (2243 Beacon Ave.) and in Langford on Nov. 28 at the West Shore Parks and Recreation fieldhouse (1767 Island Hwy.). All open houses run from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. A short survey is also available online at viha. fluidsurveys.com/s/ih2018. editor@vicnews.com

The Belmont Bulldogs and Oak Bay Bays are headed to North Vancouver this weekend to compete in a six-team wild card tournament for the final two berths at the AAAA Senior Girls Volleyball Championships in Penticton, Nov. 28 to 30. The two teams earned the entry after the host Bulldogs finished second at the Senior Girls
AAAA Island Volleyball Championship and the Bays finished third. The Bulldogs lost in the final to the Vanier Towhees, Island winners for the third consecutive year. Vanier won in straight sets, 25-21, 25-23, 25-20 and qualiied for provincials. “Vanier is ranked No. 8 in the province (tops on the Island) and proved to have a little more firepower than Belmont,” said Bulldogs coach Mike Toakley. “The Bulldogs (actually) lead Vanier at some point in all three games but were unable to push through for a win.”
The Bays defeated Claremont for third in a tight finish as Oak Bay won the final set tie-breaker 17-15. The wild-card tournament is Saturday, Nov. 23, at North Vancouver’s Handsworth secondary. Vanier’s Megan Ireland was named the AAAA Island tournament MVP. The tournament all-stars were dominated by the top four teams: Carly Guenter (Vanier), Kiana Pomponio (Belmont), Tamara Bonsdorf (Belmont), Asia Rattigan (Oak Bay), Haley Cabral (Claremont), Alena Holyk (Dover Bay). sports@vicnews.com

Add to that the wards we were a Belmont Bulldogs’ bit surprised we tremendous year, in did that well,” which they’ve chalReynolds player lenged and beat the Alexis Duval Alexis Duval said. Barbers, and the Roadrunners are quietly the “Before the game we probably didn’t the think we’d come that third best team on the Island. Third is how they finished close, so it’s disappointing.” Later that night the Roadrunat the AAA Island Senior Boys Championships at Oak Bay on ners bounced back and defeated Saturday (Nov. 16). But it was Dover Bay in four sets, including nearly a trip to the Island final, a hair-raising third set, 32-30, to as the Roadrunners fell just finish third at Islands. Most important is the Roadshy of a colossal upset in the semifinal. Having already beat runners spot at provincials, the Claremont Spartans in the Duval said. “We were happy to win Saturday morning quarterfinal, and thereby clinched a spot at (against Claremont).

year we were close, fourth at Islands.” The 6-foot-3 power hitter was named to the AAA Island second all-star team. Duval is a net threat for Reynolds and has been part of the Roadrunner’s biggest season in the recent era, though he’s even more promising as a provincial level badminton player. “Volleyball’s really fun right now so I don’t mind that it’s taking a lot of time out training for badminton. The lead up from all the practices we’ve had, (Islands) was time to play our best volleyball. If we can play our best volleyball at provincials we’ll be happy with that,” Duval said. Reynolds has shown flashes of brilliance this season, the biggest coming back in September when they won the University of B.C. Invitational, topping a field of 40 teams. The team is led by Duval up front and a core of strong Grade 11s around the talented setter, David Lee. Duval predicts this team should be just as good, if not better, next year. sports@vicnews.com
