缅北强奸

By Earl Zukerman, 缅北强奸 & Michel B茅langer, CIS

VANCOUVER 鈥� 缅北强奸 rookie Steven Bielby of Pointe Claire, Que., won his second gold medal in as many days at the CIS swim championships in Vancouver, Friday.

Bielby, a 19-year-old electrical engineering freshman, captured the 400-metre freestyle in three minutes, 49.73 seconds, destroying both the 缅北强奸 record (3:55.89) set by Sebastian Paddington in 1996 and the Quebec university record (3:52.98), held since 2001 by Laval鈥檚 Andre Couturier.

Bielby, who won the 400 IM on Thursday, became just the third male swimmer in 缅北强奸 history to win a pair of individual gold medals at a CIS championship meet. Francois Castonguay managed to accomplish that feat on two occasions, winning the 200 and 400 IM in both 2005 and 2006. Alexandre Pichette also pulled it off in 2003, winning the 50 and 100 backstrokes. No 缅北强奸 male has ever earned triple golden status at the Nationals.

Three more short-course Canadian records 鈥� and eight championship marks 鈥� were set during the second night of competition at the UBC Aquatic Centre with Thunderbird star and 2008 Olympian Annamay Pierse of Edmonton narrowly missing a world record in the women鈥檚 200-metre breaststroke.

In the team standings, the Redmen are ranked 11th of 20 teams, while the Martlets are 16th on the women鈥檚 side. Calgary Dinos lead the women鈥檚 competition with 534 points and are getting closer to their first-ever CIS title, while UBC tops the men鈥檚 race with 471. The reigning national champion Dinos are second on the men鈥檚 side with 424 points while the T-Bird women, who have won a record 11 straight CIS crowns, are second with 382. Toronto ranks third in both team races.

Pierse continued her dazzling display in the pool this weekend, chopping more than three seconds off her Canadian record with a winning time of 2:18.59, just missing Leisel Jones world standard of 2:17.75. It was her second senior national mark of the meet as she notched a world-class time of 1:05.12 in the women鈥檚 100 breaststroke Thursday night and led the T-Birds to podium sweeps in both breaststroke events.
鈥淭his is awesome. I didn鈥檛 want to talk about any record too much before the race,鈥� said Pierse. 鈥淚 just wanted to go in and swim my own race without any extra pressure. I鈥檓 very happy.鈥�

Calgary鈥檚 Katy Murdoch (Calgary) got the evening off on the right foot with a Canadian record in the women鈥檚 100 backstroke with a time of 58.67, bettering her own record of 59.08 she set in the morning preliminaries. Dino teammate Hanna Kubas touched the wall in second at 59.11, marking the first time in history that two Canadian women have gone under 1:00 in the same 100 backstroke.

鈥淚 can鈥檛 really explain what happened,鈥� said Murdoch. 鈥淐oming into the meet, I really wanted to go under 59 but this definitely surpasses my goal. It鈥檚 amazing.鈥�

The Dino quartet of Murdoch, Breanna Hendriks (Cochrane, Alta.), Kevyn Peterson (Salmon Arm, B.C.) and freshman and 2008 Olympian Erica Morningstar (Regina) set the final national record of the evening with a gold-medal performance of 7:55.91 in the women鈥檚 4 x 200 freestyle relay, bettering the mark of 7:58.12 set in December of 2008 by a foursome comprised of Hendriks, Peterson, Morningstar and Kubas.

Morningstar and Hendriks each tallied individual golds earlier in the evening. Morningstar took gold in the women鈥檚 50 freestyle with a CIS championship record of 25.17 while Hendriks just missed a meet record with a 4:08.02 first-place result in the 400 freestyle.

One of the most highly touted rivalries of the weekend continued to deliver high drama as 2008 Olympic finalist Mike Brown (Perth, Ont.) from Calgary narrowly out-touched UBC鈥檚 Scott Dickens (Ancaster, Ont.), a 2004 Olympian, 2:07.58 to 2:08.05 in the men鈥檚 200 breaststroke after Dickens beat Brown in the 100 breast Thursday night. Both times were well under the second oldest male CIS championship record as Jon Cleveland鈥檚 time of 2:09.69 had stood for 19 years.

UBC standout Callum Ng (Vancouver) collected his fourth gold of the meet, third individual, with a CIS championship record of 52.24, missing a national mark by just sixth one-hundredths of a second. The victory was his fourth in a row in the 100 back and the fifth-year won a combined nine CIS golds and one silver in the 50 and 100 backstrokes in his UBC career. Ng also added a silver medal in the men鈥檚 200 butterfly (1:58.42) Friday night finishing behind U of T rookie Zack Chetrat of Oakville, Ont. (1:55.99).

Olympian Colin Russell (Burlington, Ont.), Chetrat鈥檚 teammate at U of T, continued his impressive meet, improving his CIS championship record in the 50 free to 22.03 after setting the mark at 22.37 during the morning preliminaries.

UQTR鈥檚 Jennifer Carroll (Montreal) was also in top form, notching the career sweep in the women鈥檚 50 butterfly with her fifth straight CIS title, winning this evening in a meet record time of 26.87.

Laval鈥檚 Pamela Filiatrault-Veilleux earned the butterfly double with a victory in the 200-metre event (2:11.37) to add to her gold from the 100 metre Thursday.

Other winners on the men鈥檚 side Friday evening were Laval鈥檚 Nicolas Murray (Matane, Que.) in the 50 butterfly (24.16) and the UBC Thunderbirds who triumphed in the men鈥檚 4 x 200 freestyle relay with a time of 7:12.09 as they passed U of T for the lead on the final length of the race.

The three-day CIS championships wrap up Saturday with prelims starting at 10 a.m. Pacific Time and finals at 6 p.m. Pacific.
