It’s time to get pucked up. The UBC women’s hockey team are kicking off their playoff campaign after finishing second in the league as they face off the Regina Cougars this weekend at the Doug Mitchell Thunderbirds Sports Centre.
The 2015-16 season has been anything but a smooth ride for the women’s basketball team. But after a 9-11 regular season, it is now time for the Thunderbirds to wipe the slate clean as they hit the road this weekend to take on the UFV Cascades.

The women’s hockey team made history on Sunday night. After surviving two back-to-back elimination games, the ’Birds held on to a 3-2 victory against the Regina Cougars to bring the Canada West Final series to home ice next Friday.
After five long and arduous sets in the second game of the Canada West quarter-finals, a resounding kill from left-side hitter Laura MacTaggart finished off the three game series against Brandon University.
Despite a good first half, the ’Birds went on a losing skid after Christmas break. Losing captain Neil Manning in January was a big setback as it left the team with a less experienced defence, which included five rookie defencemen.
Maui’s booming tourist industry is due to the absolute absurdities that can be performed at any time on the island. It houses interesting people from dropout hippies, to the rich sitting at the hotel bar, but the true nut-jobs are all at the beach.
