The boys ' team was again coached by Mr. Archibald. On September 15, an invitational tournament was held out at Western Christian College. Girls ' and boys ' teams from W. C. C., Estevan Collegiate, and W. C. I. took part in the tournament. The W. C. I. boys lost only one game during the competition and emerged as tournament champions. The W. C. I. Invitational Volleyball Tournament was held on October 27 in the W. C. I. gym. The teams participating were W. C. I., Moose Jaw Tech., W. C. C., Riverview, Gravelbourg, Carnduff, and Fillmore. W. C. I. ' s first game was against Carnduff. Our boys were defeated in the hard-fought battle and Carnduff went on to win the tournament. | This loss put W. C. I. in the consolation which we won with two inspiring victories - first I over Fillmore, and then over Estevan. Next, the boys went to Moose Jaw where they competed in another tournament at Moose Jaw Central Collegiate. Here the boys went down to two bitter defeats. Carnduff beat I them in their first game and then Assiniboia knocked them out of the tournament in their I second game. This year ' s team was composed mainly of grade nine and ten students with only one senior, I Ed Ralph, on the club. With a year of experience behind them, they should be even more I successful in ' 63.

For the first one, we travelled to Swift Current on December 7. Our first game was Against Biggar, in which we came out victorious. We next met the Swift Current Kenetics, the winner of the last two tournaments. We fought hard against this fast moving club, but were defeated. The second tournament was our own Girls ' Invitational Tournament. Our first opponent was the Virden Team which whitewashed us by a score of 31-8. In our second game, the Estevan Deuces edged us 23-18. Moose Jaw Sion came up with a 38-15 win to take home the honours of the tournament. Lehret defeated Estevan 22-19 to win the consolation event.

Thus Estevan took top honours in our league. In the Alumni game held in January 4, the Eaglettes came up with a triumphant win over the past Eaglette team. Although the season did not have the results that we had hoped, we particularly enjoyed working under our coach, Mr. McCarron.
