Sports Update Fall ‘09
From the desk of Jeff Hart, our Event Sports rep:
Alpha Delta Phi has hit the ground running in September winning the first three UBC REC events. September 27th was a big day for Alpha Delt, with teams ‘Long and Strong’ finishing first in the UBC Mens category with the fastest time all weekend and ‘We Paddle Upstream For Kicks’, a CoRec team with sorority Alpha Gamma Delta, second in the UBC CoRec division. Our two other teams also did amazing, placing second in divisional races, only to other Alpha Delt teams.
Alpha Delt came out strong again placing first in the following REC event Inner Tube Water Polo. Brothers Jesse Ory, Steven Klassen and Glendon Inkster joined forces with the sisters of Alpha Delta Pi to win 2-0 in the finals.
Gladiator, the most recent event, tested the strength, fitness, endurance and skill of all competitors. However, Alpha Delta Phi took these in stride and to no avail placed first yet again in Divisional competition in a CoRec team with Alpha Delta Pi. Brothers Jeff Hart, Andrew King and Steven Klassen with help from Pledge brother Ross Enns worked together to come out with the win.
Several brothers and pledges also competed in the Fall Badminton tournament, with Brothers Jeff Hart and Ross Andrews duking it out in the finals of Pool B. Brother Tim Dy Guani also placed well, reaching the semi-finals of Pool B.
