Taiwanese student, Michael Tsai.
With no more than 30 Taiwanese stu-
dents to begin with, TCA was origi-
nally formed to help new Taiwanese

Greywolves Curtail Wolfpack Domination

By Trisha Stanley

On February 6th. at 7:00pm, at
least thirty hockey fans attempted to
fill in the vast expanse of the Prince
George Multiplex. They made the
most of its size by yelling, stamped-
ing around the arena, hurling insults
across the ice and waving home-
made signs and banners. “Mo
Blows!” proclaimed one sign, while
another retaliated with “Greywolves
Can Drink the Wolfpack Under the
Table!” “U2 Is From Ireland,,”
announced a third, as though there
was some doubt in this matter. | can
only assume it was meant to be
some clever tactic to confuse both
hockey players and fans alike with its
deep and profound meaning.

On the ice, the UNBC Greywolves,
coming off seven game winning
streak, faced off against the UNBC
Wolfpack. The Wolfpack was unbeat-
en in three previous games against
the Greywolves. With a line of strong
forwards, the Wolfpack took early
control of the game, starting the
scoring only minutes into the first
period with a goal by Phil Cox. The
Wolfpack went on to dominate the
first period, keeping the puck within
Greywolf territory for the majority of
the time.

Towards the end of the first period
and throughout the second, the
Greywolves took command of the
game, with goals by Kirby Jaques,
Erik Kozijn, and Mozzine Husham,
who nicely avenged himself against
the infamous sign. The sudden <
change in pace only incited the fans

for both teams even more. At one
point your intrepid reporter could no
longer bear the constant barrage of
really poor English and Scottish imi-
tations emanating from the crowd
and was forced to take a momentary
respite outdoors. Upon returning
moments later, | learned that | had
missed the fight “highlight” of the
evening, when Peter Robb of the
Greywolves vented his frustrations
by taking out one of the leading
scorers for the Wolfpack.

Despite a second goal by Cox,
and a third goal by Darren
Carpenter, the Greywolves went on
to win the game 7 to 3. Jaques
added two more goats for his second
hat-trick of the season. Other goal
scorers for the Greywolves were
Ryan Stevenson, who also had two
assists, and Trevor Joyce. Both
goalies played tremendously strong
games, particularly Tom Pearson for
the Greywolves, who kept his team
in the game during the first period.
The turn-out for the game was a
huge improvement from the last
UNBC match. The multitude of the
fans who took the free bus down
from residence, or who wandered
into the building by accident, provid-
ed a lot of creative support for both
teams. Next Wolfpack vs.
Greywolves match: March 3,
9:30pm, KIN 1

My prediction: | will be there with
an air horn.
