  • Hamon to Curl with Team Saskatchewan at Scotties REGINA
    Hamon to curl with Team Saskatchewan at Scotties REGINA, Sask. - Former University of Regina curler Callan Hamon will be representing Team Saskatchewan at the upcoming Scotties Tournament of Hearts, from Feb. 20 to 28 in Grand Prairie, Alta. Hamon will be the second on Jolene Campbell’s team, which also includes Ashley Williamson (lead) and Ashley Howard (third). The team was coached to the provincial title by Russ Howard, former men’s world champion and Olympic gold medalist. Russ, Ashley’s father, will be unavailable to coach at the Scotties due to his responsibilities as a curling analyst on TSN. “It’s awesome playing with Jolene’s team, I learn so much from them when I play,” Hamon said of the rink she’ll be competing at the Scotties with. “They all bring different experiences and are very generous with their knowledge. We like to have fun when we play and we help each other a lot.” The team punched its ticket to the Scotties on Jan. 30 with a 7-4 win over Stefanie Lawton’s rink in the final of the 2016 Viterra Scotties Tournament of Hearts in Prince Albert. Hamon curled for the University of Regina for four years, serving as a third for her first three years before skipping the team in 2015. Hamon helped the team to a 2-5 record at the 2014 Canadian University Curling Championships before graduating with a Bachelor of Education from the U of R. “Curling at the University of Regina was such a great experience, I got to curl with girls I had grown up competing with and against,” Hamon added.

  • Men's Hockey History 2017-2018
    Men’s Hockey History 2017-2018 Season Record: 21-6-1 (1st in the OUA West) Playoff Record: 2-3 (lost to Brock in OUA West semi-final) Fans of firewagon hockey would appreciate watching the Gryphons throughout a memorable 2017-18 season. Guelph scored in bunches, leading all OUA teams with 122 goals over the course of its campaign. Head coach Shawn Camp had a slew of talented players at his disposal, like Marc Stevens, Seth Swenson, Josh McFadden, Patrick Kudla, rookie scoring sensation Todd Winder and the anchor, two- sport athlete and captain Scott Simmonds. And his team exuded confidence, which was evident during an incredible nine-game win streak with bookend victories over the Toronto Varsity Blues. The run began with a 4-1 defeat of the Varsity Blues on Aggies Night at the Gryphon Centre on Nov. 2 and ended on the road a month later with a wild 6-4 win. Guelph seemed especially fond of the spotlight, dominating its OUA opponents in signature games like the 5-0 drubbing of Laurier in front of a record Frosty Mug crowd of 4,715 at the Sleeman Centre in January. But the Gryphons could bear down when needed and they closed the season strong taking care of York and Ryerson, the two teams behind them in the OUA West standings, both by scores of 6-2. Guelph got the jump on Windsor in the best-of- three OUA West quarter-final and despite losing game two 4-3 on the road, the top seed closed it out in style, winning 6-1 in the series finale, with Winder scoring twice.
