缅北强奸

MONTREAL -- The 缅北强奸 cross-country running team, headed by head coach Dennis Barrett and his assistants Mike Babb and Catherine Megias, are sending six men and seven women to Ste. Foy, Que., for the CIS national championships this weekend.

In the midst of a rebuilding year, the Redmen finished third of four teams at the Quebec conference championships, held at Parc La Baie, in Mandeville, Que., (Oct. 27) and are attempting to become the second Quebec university team to capture a national cross-country title. 缅北强奸鈥檚 best finish was a bronze medal in 1996 championships, when they hosted the event atop Mt. Royal.

The six Redmen competing at 鈥淣ationals鈥� include senior Graydon Snider of Guelph, Ont., fifth-year senior Ryan Ouckama of Cobourg, Ont., junior Kenneth Douglas of Montreal, plus three freshman --Daniel Kramer of Salem, Mass., Maxime Bellemare of Sherbrooke, Que., and. Alexander Duhault of Calgary, who earned rookie of the year honours in the Quebec circuit.

A young Martlets squad also had a disappointing season, finishing second to Laval at the Quebec conference title meet. It marked the end of their long, 20-year reign as Quebec women's champions. The 缅北强奸 women are attempting to become the first QSSF team to capture a national cross-country title. They are the only Quebec school to medal at Nationals, with a silver (2006) and a pair of bronzes (1996, 2001).

The seven Martlet qualifiers include Margaux Pontoreau-Bazinet, a third-year nursing major from Montreal, plus sophomores Arielle Beatty of Newmarket, Ont., and Cristina Lo Basso of Montreal, in addition to three freshmen -- Melanie Myrand of Pointe Claire, Que., Brittany Therrien of Victoria, B.C., and Charl猫ne Puel, a native of France, whose father Claude Puel, is head coach of the Olympique Lyonnais soccer club, seven-time champions of the top league in France.

2008 CIS cross country championships
Gryphons running for history in Quebec City


OTTAWA (CIS) 鈥� The Guelph Gryphons hope to write some history of their own Saturday when Laval University hosts the 2008 CIS cross country championships on the historical site of the Plains of Abraham in Quebec City.

Championship web site: 听


The Gryphons have been the dominant force in recent years in university cross country running, capturing the last three CIS banners in women鈥檚 competition, and the last two titles and six of the past nine on the men鈥檚 side.

With another team win this weekend, the Gryphon women would tie the all-time record for consecutive national championships. Since the inaugural CIS meet was held in 1980, only Western, from 1981 to 1984, and Victoria, from 1998 to 2001, have been able to put together streaks of four straight women鈥檚 titles.

Meanwhile, a victory by the Gryphon men would give them eight team banners since the inaugural men鈥檚 meet in 1963, moving them to within one of the all-time mark held by Toronto.听

Both Guelph teams have resumed their domination this season, the men topping all seven national rankings published this fall while the women were No. 1 six of the seven weeks.

Guelph swept the team titles at the 2008 OUA championships held in Kingston on Oct. 25.

Other conference team champions this fall were the St. Francis Xavier X-Men and X-Women, who captured double gold in the AUS, and the Laval Rouge et Or women and Sherbrooke Vert & Or men in the QSSF. Laval edged 缅北强奸 by only two points to claim the Quebec women鈥檚 banner.

Canada West doesn鈥檛 hold cross country championships. Top finishers among Canada West runners at the CIS meet are crowned conference champions.

Individual gold-medal winners at 2008 conference championships were Toronto鈥檚 Megan Brown and Guelph鈥檚 Allan Brett in the OUA, StFX teammates Gina Stewart and David Gerych in the AUS, and Laval鈥檚 Catherine Cormier and Sherbrooke鈥檚 James Poulin-Cadovius in the QSSF.

Sherbrooke鈥檚 Alex Genest, the reigning CIS champion and the CIS rookie of the year in 2006, settled for third at the QSSF meet. The native of Lac-aux-Sables, Que., has been gradually coming back to competition this season as he was recovering from health problems.

One of the most interesting battles to keep an eye on this weekend could be the fight for individual gold in the women鈥檚 race between Brown and Guelph鈥檚 Lindsay Carson, who claimed CIS gold as a rookie last year.

At the OUA championships two weeks ago, Brown, the 2006 CIS champion who started her varsity career at Guelph before transferring to Toronto, beat Carson by 34 seconds over five kilometres.听听听听

鈥淭oday was one of the strongest runs I鈥檝e ever ran,鈥� said Brown following the race. 鈥淚 ran exactly to my fitness and I鈥檓 in the best shape of my life right now. I鈥檓 very pleased with where I鈥檓 at right now.鈥�

The last runners to repeat as CIS champions are Nathalie C么t茅 of the Ottawa Gee-Gees, who won three straight gold medals from 1996 to 1998, and Cristiano Mauricio of the Windsor Lancers, who claimed back-to-back individual titles in 2004 and 2005.

The five-kilometre CIS women鈥檚 race will get under way at 1 p.m. on Saturday, with the 10-kilometre men鈥檚 event following at 1:40 p.m.

POUR DIFFUSION IMM脡DIATE
Championnats de cross-country de SIC 2008

Les Gryphons veulent entrer dans l鈥檋istoire 脿 Qu茅bec


OTTAWA (SIC) 鈥� Les Gryphons de Guelph esp猫rent 茅crire leur propre page d鈥檋istoire samedi lorsque l鈥橴niversit茅 Laval accueillera les championnats de cross-country de SIC 2008 sur le site historique des Plaines d鈥橝braham, 脿 Qu茅bec.

Site web des championnats:

Les Gryphons se sont av茅r茅s la puissance incontest茅e en cross-country universitaire au cours des derni猫res ann茅es, remportant trois banni猫res f茅minines de SIC cons茅cutives de m锚me que deux titres en autant de saisons - et six en neuf ans - du c么t茅 masculin.

Advenant une nouvelle victoire par 茅quipe chez les dame ce week-end, les Gryphons 茅galeraient le record de tous les temps de quatre championnats canadiens cons茅cutifs. Depuis la premi猫re rencontre de SIC en 1980, seulement deux institutions, Western de 1981 脿 1984 et Victoria de 1998 脿 2001, ont r茅ussi 脿 aligner quatre titres f茅minins.

Chez les hommes, une victoire des Gryphons leur procurerait une huiti猫me banni猫re depuis le premier championnat masculin de SIC en 1963, une de moins seulement que la marque d茅tenue par Toronto.

Les deux 茅quipes de Guelph ont poursuivi leur domination cette saison, les hommes dominant chacun des sept classements canadiens publi茅s cet automne, alors que les dames occupaient la t锚te de six des sept classements.

Guelph a balay茅 les banni猫res par 茅quipe lors des championnats de la conf茅rence de l鈥橭ntario qui se d茅roulaient 脿 Kingston, le 25 octobre.

Dans les autres conf茅rences, St. Francis Xavier a remport茅 les deux titres par 茅quipe dans les Maritimes, alors que la formation f茅minine du Rouge et Or de Laval et l鈥櫭﹒uipe masculine du Vert & Or de Sherbrooke se partageaient les honneurs au Qu茅bec. Laval a m茅rit茅 le titre f茅minin de la FQS脡 de justesse, ne devan莽ant 缅北强奸 que par deux points.

La conf茅rence Canada-Ouest ne tient pas de championnats de cross-country. Les meilleurs pointeurs individuels de Canada-Ouest 脿 la rencontre de SIC sont d茅clar茅s champions de la conf茅rence.

Les m茅daill茅s d鈥檕r individuels au sein des diverses conf茅rences en 2008 ont 茅t茅 Megan Brown de Toronto et Allan Brett de Guelph en Ontario, les co茅quipiers de StFX Gina Stewart et David Gerych dans l鈥橝tlantique, puis Catherine Cormier de Laval et James Poulin-Cadovius de Sherbrooke au sein de la FQS脡.

Champion de SIC en 2007 et recrue par excellence au pays il y a deux ans, Alex Genest du Vert & Or s鈥檈st content茅 de la troisi猫me place aux championnats de la FQS脡. Le coureur originaire de Lac-aux-Sables, Qu茅., est revenu graduellement 脿 la comp茅tition cet automne apr猫s avoir 茅prouv茅 des probl猫mes de sant茅.

L鈥檜ne des luttes les plus int茅ressantes 脿 surveiller samedi sera assur茅ment la bataille pour l鈥檕r chez les dames entre Brown et Lindsay Carson de Guelph, qui a remport茅 le titre de SIC 脿 ses d茅buts universitaires l鈥檃n dernier.

Aux championnats ontariens il y a deux semaines, Brown, championne de SIC en 2006 qui avait entam茅 sa carri猫re universitaire 脿 Guelph avant de d茅cider de poursuivre ses 茅tudes 脿 Toronto, a devanc茅 Carson par 34 secondes sur cinq kilom猫tres.

芦 J鈥檃i fait l鈥檜ne de mes meilleures courses en carri猫re aujourd鈥檋ui, a dit Brown apr猫s l鈥櫭﹑reuve. J鈥檃i couru exactement comme je dois le faire. Je suis dans la meilleure forme de ma vie en ce moment 禄.

Les derniers athl猫tes 脿 avoir d茅fendu avec succ猫s leur couronne individuelle de SIC sont Nathalie C么t茅 des Gee-Gees d鈥橭ttawa, championne lors de trois 茅ditions cons茅cutives de 1996 脿 1998, et Cristiano Mauricio des Lancers de Windsor, qui a remport茅 le titre masculin en 2004 et 2005.

Le d茅part de la course f茅minine de cinq kilom猫tres est pr茅vue pour 13h samedi, alors que l鈥櫭﹑reuve masculine de 10 kilom猫tres d茅butera 脿 13h40.
