WATERPOLO
The Blues women’s and men’s waterpolo teams annihilated York last Wednesday in an all-out cross-city water polo battle.
In the first half of the women’s game, Blues veteran Kerry Mosher lit up the scoreboard with her talented skip shot, scoring four unanswered goals. Kirsten Sagdnowski joined Mosher by using her brute force in the hole and scored two goals.
18-year old Laura Wensley couldn’t let her teammates take all the glory and she put in two very accurate shots in the first and fourth quarters, joined with her teammate Charlotte Vieth’s goal in the first.
Defense was strong too. “The team could not have done so well, without our great goalies,” says coach John Goodoy.
The Blues women shut York down with 10 goals, only letting one shot by York vet Jen Johnson slip by in third period play.
After the women’s game, the men’s team easily handled York with a 15 – 4 victory. Both teams are looking to improve their records further in games at McMaster this coming weekend.

CROSS COUNTRY
This weekend in Moncton, N.B., home of the magnetic hill and maritime charm, Varsity Blues cross country captain Sandy Wells bounded to a fourth place finish at the Canadian Interuniversity Sport (CIS) championships. Wells finished the course with a time of 18:25:62, which, though just shy of getting her on the podium, was good enough to secure her All-Canadian honours, and a spot at the World University Cross Country Championship in Collegno, Italy in March. U of T’s women’s team, last year’s CIS champions, finished in seventh place overall.-RA
