drive yet again this year, and for that alone they deserve the utmost respect. 1-3 on Friday with a win over Carleton B and a perfect 4-0 on Saturday sent them into Sunday in first place in their group, but a 14-6 loss to Queen’s proved that first place to be a bittersweet. A big win against McMaster and a close loss to Concordia later and they had improved on last year’s 16th place finish by two seeds. The University of Western Ontario (B


Team) managed to hold their place from last year’s CUUC, beating out McMaster late Sunday. The highest finisher of the B teams, they came into Sunday 3-5 and beat their seed by 3 in finishing 15th. Hamilton’s McMaster University rounded


out the second tier of bracket play, fin- ishing 16th. Led by ROY’s Brian Yue, Alex Vlahos, and Andrew Meikle, they had a very successful day one at 4-1 but strug- gled on the weekend, going 1-4 and 0-6 to close out the tournament. A short and shallow bench became increasingly prob- lematic as the tournament wore on, but McMaster showed plenty of promise and will look to build on this experience next year.


point differential to Toronto B. They fin- ished 18th. And yet another team at 3-1 on Sunday. The McGill Redmen (B Team) beat their seed and could’ve placed higher but for that pesky point differential. They finished 19th, an improvement on last year’s 20th. Neither McMaster B nor Carleton B finished the tournament due to lack of personnel.

the top 8, but we would have liked to have done better. We felt that the wind was a difficult obstacle to overcome for our lim- ited throwing abilities as a team, as well as limiting our overall athleticism, which we felt was one of our strongest attributes. This is the first ever top 8 for uOttawa in 6 years of existence, shooting for even better next year. Rob Ainsworth was starting handler on both O line and D line. He frequently made big plays to keep position and had very few turnovers all weekend. Alex Bush has stepped up big in his second year on the Geegees. He came up big on defense in games vs. Concordia and McMaster, shutting down opponent’s deep options. Hagan Riglin intimidated

phenomenal one. With one season on the practice roster this past summer with


Firebird, Travis was the Geegees’ defensive man, including jumping over a player in one game. Travis’ inexperience with the disc did not hamper the team, as he was always patient, looking for that easy pass. Dylan Zajac became an unexpected
