Dec. 15- Boston Pizza Classic Basketball Tourney




The Nicholson Crusaders faced off against the Moira Trojans in the final game of the eight team tournament. Led by Eric Kruger's 16 points, the Nicholson offense was too much for the Trojans, defeating them 42-39 Saturday night at Nicholson College.

Nov 28-30: Panama









My first visit to Panama left me with nothing for great respect for the people and the culture that they live in. Through clearly less developed than North America, everyone I met was genuinely happy. Most of these shots are from a village called Farallon. It is located about 2 hours North of Panama City. The main industry here is fishing. The 2nd and 3rd shots are from a place called Penanome, a much larger, more developed town. The temperatures were warm, the beer is cold and the vibe is cool. I can't wait to go back to Panama.

Nov 9: COSSA Football Championship- Centennial vs. Crestwood










The 2007 high school football season came down to this senior championship game on Friday at Centennial Secondary School in Belleville. The Centennial Chargers hosted the Crestwood Mustangs of Peterborough and got a little more than they could handle. Crestwood opened up a 14 point lead in the first quarter and never looked back. The Chargers had a few costly turnovers and could never get much of a rhythm. The Crestwood Mustangs won the game 38-15. For many of the players, this will be their last game at the high school level; some will continue to play at University, while others will be hanging up their cleats for the last time.

Nov. 3: Queens vs Carleton Water Polo




The Queens Golden Gaels ladies was a battle to the finish. After Gael Holly Tawse tied the game at eight with just two minutes, Carleton Raven Rachel Baxter scored the game winner for a 9-8 Raven victory. The Gaels men did not fair as well, losing 26-5 to the Carleton Ravens..ouch!
