Speaker series to host celebrated local and national speakers

acclaimed tEdx event returns to western

alex CarmonaNeWs editor

This year Western will once again play host to TEDxWesternU, an independent speaker series held in the style of the extremely popular TED conferences. TEDx, like TED itself, is committed to disseminat-ing “ideas worth spreading” that will impact their host communi-ties, as well as people around the world.

“The purpose, specifically for TEDxWesternU, is two-fold,” Oscar Linares-Leon, co-chair of the TEDxWesternu team, said. “First, to promote or help spread the ideas of local people like professors or any other people, who live in London and are part of this community. The second is to bring speakers from abroad, say, other parts of Canada, so they can have an impact on London’s community.”

The event will be held on April 5 at the Paul Davenport Theatre. Tickets will be sold for $30—how-ever, there are only 100 of them, and anyone who wants to attend must complete a soon-to-be-released application.

“By TEDx rules we’re restricted

to only a 100 attendees. So, because of that, we need to pick and choose,” Linares-Leon explained.

“Another reason is that one of the best parts of attending a TEDx conference is the conversations the attendees have in between speak-ers. We want to have a diverse crowd—we don’t want all the stu-dents to be engineering students, or all the students to be business students. We also want to make sure we have people who are truly passionate about TEDx to be the ones attending.”

A third party will provide the TEDx executives with applicants’ information with names removed, so as to ensure a fair selection process.

The event organizers are tak-ing great lengths to accommodate those who cannot attend in person.

“We’re going to have a satellite event, in council chambers most likely. We’ll have a huge projector screen and livestream the talks, and try to provide as much as we can with that environment of discussion right after each talk,” Linares-Leon said.

“We’re also trying to get some speakers to go to the satellite event

after it’s over so the people who attend the satellite event have an opportunity to engage with some of the speakers. Apart from that, as any TED or TEDx event, all the talks are going to be livestreamed on our website—that way anybody can access it.”

While the full list of speakers has yet to be released, Richard Ivey School of Business professor Jean-Philippe Vergne is one confirmed speaker.

“My talk is going to revolve around the influence of pirate organizations on the evolution of capitalist societies,” Vergne said.

“From the influence that sea pirates had in the 17th century on the evolution of international trade, to the influence of pirate radio on the radio broadcasting industry and, more recently, the influence of online piracy on the development of tech companies and cyberspace. For example, online pirate groups have created alternatives to propri-etary software, such as open source or free software that has dramati-cally changed how traditional busi-nesses operate in this industry. Essentially, piracy is driving the evolution of entire industries by changing the rules of the game.”

Students more likely to overshare onlineJeremiah rodriguez

Gazette staff

A survey released by Visa Canada has found Canadians aged 18 to 30 were more likely to recklessly over-share their personal information online through social networking sites like Facebook and were there-fore put at a greater risk of fraud.

Thirty-two per cent of students have liberal social media settings for public viewing of their personal email and home addresses, birth-days and phone numbers. This same group was much more likely to participate in riskier behavior like sharing PIN numbers, personal data and lending credit cards to others, as well as through Facebook and text messages, or emails.

In comparison, 24 per cent of Canadians between ages 31 and 45, 14 per cent of baby boomers and nine per cent of seniors reported these oversharing attitudes.

This private information could easily be used fraudulently to per-petuate identity theft, email phish-ing and other scams, warns the

study. The contrast between the younger and older age groups could be the generational emersion into social networking, online purchas-ing and the availability of handheld technology.

“This might be because younger people are just so used to having social media as a part of their lives and are very active with it—86 per cent of them engage in some sort of social media activity on a daily basis,” Carla Hindman, manager of corporate and public affairs at Visa Canada, said.

According to the Visa Canada survey that polled 1,604 adults, there is a direct correlation between the people revealing personal informa-tion online publicly to those same people reporting a case of fraud of one form or another.

The survey found 56 per cent of all Canadians say fraud is a major concern for them, with 37 per cent of respondents claiming security concerns are the top cited reason as to why they do not shop online.

“Common sense is the number one tool students can use when it

comes to their personal informa-tion. If it’s not something you want a stranger to know, then don’t post it. Check your privacy settings and use discretion,” Hindman urged. “Payment cards are yours alone, don’t share or lend them—and don’t send card information through insecure channels like email or text.

The problem is a lack of aware-ness of the riskier habits that 18-to-30-year-olds unknowingly take online.

The study purports that while personal and financial infor-mation are strongly

encouraged to be kept private, the survey goes on to stress the need for victims to talk about their experi-ences with fraud to help others avoid the same fate.

However, this stigma of sharing of experiences is seen primarily in seniors, as only half of them were likely to talk about their experiences being defrauded or ask questions about suspected fraud, spyware or identity theft.

Changing tuition fees

aaron ZaltzmanNeWs editor

The time has come for change, at least according to the Canadian Federation of Students.

With Ontario’s current tuition framework, first introduced in 2006, set to expire, student lobby groups, CFS included, are looking to have their say in the creation of a new one.

“The government has expressed in recent months that they plan on instituting a new framework, pre-sumably to be put in place by fall,” Sarah King, chairperson of CFS, said. “Students need to have a voice in this.”

CFS, which represents half a mil-lion Canadian post-secondary stu-dents, has voiced its opinion in a detailed proposal entitled Changing Priorities. Among the most signifi-cant propositions are harmoniz-ing tuition fee payment deadlines, eliminating interest fees on tuition debt and a 30 per cent reduction in tuition fees across Ontario over the next three years.

“Under the current framework, we’ve seen increases of five to eight per cent per year, which means since 2006 students have seen increases of up to 71 per cent,” King explained. “This has put us not only at the high-est fees in the country, but has also created drastic increases in student debt, and unfortunately we don’t have a lot to show for it in terms of quality.”

According to King, however, this trend could potentially be reversed.

“We’ve illustrated before that it’s actually possible to reduce tuition fees with existing funds,” King said, citing the Liberal government’s 30 per cent tuition refund for some students. However, she said that program’s shortfall is it only applies to two out of every nine Ontario students.

We’re at a point now where our institutions are funded more by private funding than government funding, which was not the case 30 years ago.

If you’re feeling sluggish after a lazy reading week, you’re probably not alone. Luckily, the University Students’ Council’s Health and Wellness Support Service has your back, as this week they are putting on their very first Healthy Lifestyles Awareness Week.

The week-long event focuses on topics related to food and nutri-tion, being active and positive body image.

“We feel it is important to pro-mote positive body image, provide health and nutrition resources and inform students how to have an active lifestyle,” Inna Yasinska, direc-tor of Healthy Lifestyles, said. “We just want to provide students with all the resources they can get in order to lead healthy lives and inspire them to take interest in health and nutrition.”

On top of having an information booth in the University Community Centre, the Health and Wellness Support Service is putting on a few free events for students, including a cardio rave taking place in the Mustang Lounge on today at 5:30 p.m. A dietician will also be avail-able to answer dietary questions in the UCC from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. on Thursday.

“Year one of our proposal simply involves reallocating the funds for the student grant, as well as those of the provincial allocation tax credits, to a 30 per cent tuition fee reduction for all students,” King said.

Additionally, CFS wants to see more public funding for Ontario universities, which currently aver-age as the lowest in the country, stemming from public service cuts in the late 1990s.

“We’re at a point now where our institutions are funded more by private funding than government funding, which was not the case 30 years ago,” King explained.

CFS’s proposal stands in some contrast to that of the Ontario Undergraduate Student Alliance, the organization Western defected to from CFS in 1995.

Though the two organizations agree in principle tuition fees are too high in the province, OUSA’s proposal aims slightly lower.

“Our stance is for the government to partially fund a tuition freeze for at least one year, and if tuition were to increase, it should be no more than an inflationary increase,” Alysha Li, OUSA president, explained. “We

would like to see the government take action and send a message that five per cent tuition increases are not sustainable.”

It remains to be seen how much either of the groups’ proposals will affect the new tuition framework, if at all.

“The government is expected to announce a new framework—whether or not that is the same one we have now or a different one, we don’t know,” Li said. She also addressed the contrast between the two lobby groups’ proposals.

“I think it’s a matter of perspec-tive, and we take our lobbying points from our students.”

LtC partners with Google

Zoe woodsGazette staff

For the technologically inclined, navigating London just got a whole lot easier.

The London Transit Commission has partnered with Google Transit to improve the integration of LTC services with Google Maps.

Users will soon be able to use Google Maps to plan trips on pub-lic transit, as opposed to planning it themselves using complicated maps and schedules. Google Maps will also provide up-to-the-minute departure and arrival information.

This prototype has been suc-cessfully implemented in many other cites across Ontario.

Margarita Quijano, a first-year science student, is familiar with the system from her hometown.

“I’m from Mississauga and they

have it there and it’s so helpful. It tells you what routes to take and it’s really great.”

“The integration will make getting around the city much easier for tech-savvy people,” Eric Southern, LTC chairperson, said. “Especially for new students attending Western and Fanshawe, as they will be able to use Google Maps to help plan their trips. Using the integrated maps will

reduce the learning curve for new riders when using London Transit,” he added.

First-year science student Kelly Pollock echoed Southern’s sentiment.

“I have this back home. When I came [to Western] and they didn’t have it, it kind of sucked. You could sit there for 20 minutes trying to figure out […] all the dif-ferent routes from the app on your phone.”

IT staff have been working to bring this feature to the LTC for at least three years. To date, the LTC has produced a Google-friendly data feed and are currently wait-ing on Google’s evaluation and approval before testing can begin. A tentative launch date has been set for summer 2013—unfortu-nately, the system is not expected to be up and running in time for the ISU World Figure Skating Championships.

Students with disabilities still facing PSE challenges

Cam SmithNeWs editor

A recent study conducted by the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario is addressing challenges facing students with both physical and mental disabilities attending post-secondary education.

According to the study Disability in Ontario: Postsecondary education participation rates, student experi-ence and labour market outcomes, more students with disabilities are going to PSE and are choosing col-lege over university. Yet, students with disabilities are less likely to graduate and often take longer to complete their education.

According to Erin Cowan, acces-sibility commissioner for Western’s University Students’ Council, the reasons for this statistical discrep-ancy start before PSE.

“I think that high schools need to offer more support for students with disabilities. I remember some of my teachers being reluctant to meet my requests, [such as] wear-ing an FM microphone, preferential seating [and] facing the class while teaching,” Cowan said. “These stu-dents may also think that universi-ties and colleges do not offer the support they need and may also feel discouraged to attend because they are not aware of the services

available to them.”Students with disabilities

encounter unique challenges on university campuses, particularly one as large as Western.

“Western’s grounds are large and fairly hilly, so there is potential for students with mobility impairments to have difficulty travelling among locations on campus,” Deborah Stuart, coordinator of Services for Students with Disabilities, said. “Western also has beautiful old buildings, a few of which have classrooms that are not sufficiently accessible for all students.”

However, Western has addressed these issues with a variety of support services.

“In response to this situation, Western has done a lot to make its grounds accessible. For example, our service provides accessible campus transportation that takes students among locations on the main campus and affiliate univer-sity college campuses,” Stuart said.

Cowan stressed the importance of support for students with dis-abilities to encourage participation is PSE.

“I think support is the main issue. If students with disabilities in high school see that it is possible to suc-ceed in university, they might be encouraged to attend,” Cowan concluded.

Preparing to run in the chilly outdoorsBradley metlinGazette staff

Avid runners who love jogging around their neighborhoods during the dusk of summer might fear mak-ing that trek outside when the snow starts to fall—but wait. Ever thought about running in snowshoes? It’s a new fitness fad that’s quickly taking off, with some even campaigning for its inclusion in the Winter Olympics.

While snowshoe running might conjure hilarious cartoon-esque images of bowlegged runners slowly making their way through the snow, these modern snowshoes are sleek and challenging to use. Grabbing a pair from a sports store will cost about $200. While not hefty for the average person, that price tag can be steep for students. Venturing outside in the winter weather to run might not be all that scary if you take the necessary precautions, says owner and manager of Runners’ Choice, Brian Hagemeier.

“Dressing properly for the condi-tions [is key],” he says. “The main thing is finding the right clothing, which means wearing layers so you can trap the heat and insulate.” Ultimately, wearing something that breathes well and allows for good air circulation is the best bet. Having a “dry layer” followed by another layer designed to insulate, and then wearing a coat to act as a “protec-tion layer” is the best way to design your running outfit.

Western loves the Canada Goose jackets and pea coats, but if you’re running, it’s best to keep them in the closet.

“If you step out of the door in the winter and you’re comfortable— you’re overdressed,” Hagemeier says. “You should be a little bit cold because as soon as you start to run you warm up.”

Wearing a hat is also an impor-tant precaution to take when going for a run in cold temperatures. Studies have consistently shown that your head is the part of your body where you lose the most heat—a hat will help trap that.

Kyle Simons, a first-year Western student who goes for runs fre-quently, says it’s important to be aware of your surroundings.

“Being careful about black ice on the ground is important, especially when turning corners,” Simons says. “I was running one night pretty late and was listening to my music,

really getting into it and slid out onto the road. Luckily, there were no cars.”

When asked if he noticed a lot of differences between his running habits in the summer and winter, Simons said he didn’t.

“I might run a kilometre less because of the cold, or just not go out at all, but that’s about it,” he says.

If you’re still wary about running outside, consider that track running indoors might also be detrimental.

“Inside, running on a track where there’s constant turning can

put a lot more stress on your body and increase your risk of running into injuries,” Hagemeier says.

Running is hard work and can be hard on your body—so what keeps people running?

“Running makes me feel like I’ve done something productive,” Simons says. To the critics who argue that running is a bland activ-ity where not much is actually done, Simons counters.

“How can it not be productive? You’re burning calories and you end up feeling better at the end of the day.”

oscar the Grouch strikes again

Brent Holmesarts & Life editor

I’m not sure what the worst part of this year’s Oscars was—Seth MacFarlane or Argo winning Best Picture.

I suppose we couldn’t expect much else, for MacFarlane opened the show with a slew of offensive, sexist jokes that made the audi-ence visibly and audibly uncom-fortable. Among the worst was a song dedicated to the actresses who performed a scene topless—mentioning Jodie Foster’s scene in The Accused was the epitome of tasteless.

Finally, Argo won Best Picture. Ben Affleck’s re-imagining of the Iranian hostage crisis in 1979 involved taking an act former President Jimmy Carter called 90 per cent Canadian, and giving all the credit to Tony Mendez—an American CIA agent. At the Toronto Film Festival, the film was screened with an ending title card claiming the credit was given to Canadian ambassador Ken Taylor for political purposes.

As Canadians, we don’t have much in the way of national pride. We are generally politically apa-thetic, and when it comes to stand-ing up for our nation’s heroes we are horribly unpatriotic. Taylor risked his life to get six Americans out of a life-threatening situation and we just sit there when a movie that butchers one of his greatest accom-plishments is paraded about as a “great film.”

In looking into why Argo won, it comes down to a larger problem within the Academy. Every year it seems the Oscars become less relevant—they allowed more Best Picture nominees when films like The Dark Knight and WALL-E were ‘snubbed’ and brought in a racier, low-brow host in order to appeal to a younger audience.

The reality of the situation is one can’t dumb oneself down to be more relevant. Relevancy is not a matter of making decisions that more people will like, it is a matter of making tough calls that make others think.

This year, many of the best films I’ve seen weren’t even nominated. Films like Ruby Sparks, Looper, Cosmopolis, Compliance and Antiviral are films that challenge their audiences and force them to confront the dark sides of previous assumptions—whether it be in the way critics and film-goers restrict living characters through confining them to archetypes in Ruby Sparks, to how obsessive we’ve become as a culture in Cosmopolis and Antiviral, to the very act of not thinking in Compliance.

Instead of these possibilities, we have been presented with a host whose jokes represent humour appealing to 13-year-old boys and a film that plays fast and loose with history. We have to remember the great films out there are a part of a tradition of challenging and call-ing into question what we assume to be true about life—films like Citizen Kane, Goodfellas, Up in the Air and Inglourious Basterds. If the Academy can’t figure this out soon, then soon the only rea-son to watch the Oscars will be to know the answers to Trivial Pursuit questions.

Holmes is on the Case

an amourbid experience

Brent Holmesarts & Life editor

GGGGHAmour

Director: Michael HanekeStarring: Emmanuelle Riva, Jean-Louis Trintignant, Isabelle Huppert

Winner of the 2012 Palme D’Or and Oscar winner for Best Foreign Film, Michael Haneke’s Amour is an emo-tional powerhouse and undoubtedly one of the best films of the year.

Amour doesn’t really focus on plot, and it’s a film that doesn’t baby-sit its audience. The opening scene is of firemen breaking into a house to find the body of Anne (Emmanuelle Riva) covered in flowers. From the very beginning, it’s clear where the film is going and the snapshots of life that Haneke gives us are not focused on explaining every aspect of what is going on. It’s similar in this regard to his 2009 masterpiece, The White Ribbon, wherein the key events are not shown because the results are more important.

Anne and Georges (Jean-Louis

Trintignant) are two elderly retired piano teachers. During breakfast, Anne has a stroke and after her sur-gery goes wrong is paralyzed on her right side. Not wanting to go back to the hospital and increasingly frustrated and depressed about her deteriorating condition, her husband Georges takes care of her.

The performances are fantastic. Incredible credit goes to Riva, whose performance as Anne shows the actor’s hard work after her character has a second stroke that leaves half her mouth paralyzed. The 86-year-old actor has had an incredible career going back to 1959 when she starred in Hiroshima Mon Amour—a found-ing film of the French New Wave. The amount of work that performance must have taken is incredible.

Trintignant, likewise, gives an incredibly strong performance as Georges. The film focuses heavily on the stress he takes on in promising to not take his wife back to the hospital or home, and how he has to deal with his emotionally unstable daughter, Eva (Isabelle Huppert) and horribly inconsiderate nurses.

There is hardly anything else

wrong with Amour. The cinema-tography is fantastic. Oftentimes, the camera is relatively stationary, capturing Riva and Trintignant going through their daily routine in a very realistic manner. One dream sequence is a particularly well-done blend of reality and horror.

Thematically, the film is incred-ibly bleak. The film’s approach to death and dying is hard to watch. Anne and Georges are by no means religious and there are no allusions to an afterlife to provide a sense of relief. Their extensive collection of books and photographs attest to their long happy lives. This film is about their slow trod out as they are trapped in the places where they loved and lived together. Amour isn’t going to win any awards for being the feel-good film of the year.

Amour is undoubtedly one of the best films of the year. It’s at times heartbreaking, comic, scary and sweet, but at all times beautiful and poetic. This is what film is meant to be.

Amour is currently playing at Hyland Cinema and will run there until March 7.

OpinionsLetter to the Editor

ryan HurlbutoPiNioNs editor

Amid the never-ending spectacle of the Oscars, a flurry of activity erupted on Twitter in regards to a controversial tweet by satirical news site The Onion. The tweet in question asked, “Everyone else seems afraid to say it, but that Quvenzhané Wallis is kind of a cunt, right?”

While this tweet inevitably creates a problem in the sense that it degrades an innocent child, its existence is something that should be tolerated. The Onion is not just an outlet for humour—it is a way to analyze and cri-tique the dominant systems of the world today in a way that utilizes humour for accessibility.

Besides commentary on nine-year-old actresses, The Onion has published articles that tackle sensitive subjects such as sexism, religion and child sol-diering, while a more traditional news outlet may run the risk of alienating its audience through cold content.

In comparison to many of these more taboo stories by The Onion, this tweet tackles a subject much less taboo in society, and in less depth than most of their full-length articles. It is possible this tweet only garnered such attention because it was related to such a widely watched event. If it was published at another time, it may not have even been noticed.

Within our society, we must come to the realization that just because

someone is offended, doesn’t neces-sarily mean the “offensive” action in question is wrong. Within the rights of free speech, people are just as able to freely express their anxieties about what others say as those people are able to say what they want to begin with. It is through constant discussion and debate that we figure out what is right and what is wrong—and to base an opinion on something as small and fleeting as a tweet may be a mistake.

As I mentioned earlier, I understand the precedent this action may set by normalizing the association of such a young girl with such a bad word, but we must realize this action is more so mak-ing this connection to Wallis’ celebrity image than her actual person. The tweet is less of an attack on her person than a critique of her uninhibited childlike excitement that has yet to be quelled by societal repression. The tweet is celebrating her differences from other contestants, as much as it is taboo and obscene.

As a society, it is important for us to stand behind satire, as it allows opinions to be discussed in a way in which they are exempt from legal cries of libel. To analyze satirically is important to free speech, and despite possible outcries from work such as this tweet, it is impor-tant to support the greater picture of free speech and critique.

All in all, there are a multitude of people out there, each with their own beliefs and opinions about how the world works. These people have their opinions, just as The Onion has their critiques on the world, and instead of an outcry, our society needs to greet all these opinions with careful discussion. Whether right or wrong, the actions of The Onion fit in with their overall edito-rial tone.

onion’s oscars tweet shouldn’t leave bad taste

A recent report compiled by the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario has determined students who are physically or mentally disabled are more likely to choose college over university. Furthermore, students with disabilities are less likely to graduate on average or take a longer time to graduate.

It’s easy to see why one who has a disability would look upon college more favourably than university. Colleges are more confined places in general, making it easier to get to classes or extracurricular commitments. In addition, it’s likely that the smaller size of colleges would allow for more attention to be focused on accessibility issues.

The problem with this is that, ideally, those living with disabilities should not be more inclined to choose a particular path due to lack of accessibility. It’s important to note that no one on The Gazette Editorial Board has a cognitive or physical disability, but we believe there is room for improvement in this area. Western is a big place that is built on hilly terrain, and we can’t change that. What we can and should change is accommodation.

Perhaps Western could be the first university to directly reach out to those with disabilities. This would be difficult, of course, but the cause is a worthy and meaningful one. There are some places on campus that don’t appear to be too accessible, such as University College. In addition, it seems students who have mental disabilities receive academic accommodations and support, while students with physical disabilities receive less attention. It may be necessary to review and expand the scope of who receives such assistance.

Most importantly, it’s time the university established more meaningful communication with disabled students and faculty. This way, feedback could be provided directly regarding the accessibility of classrooms and workspaces on campus, among other things. Until such communication links are improved, it could prove quite difficult for accessibility to be change in a way that is helpful. While it’s difficult to speak for this group of students, staff and faculty, it’s safe to say that until statistics such as those found in the report change, we will know universities are not doing enough.

mutilation merits mentionTo the Editor:Re: Head 2 Head, February 8, 2012

I was disappointed to read Kevin Hurren’s comparison of intact and cir-cumcised penises in the sex edition of The Gazette. Rather than take a serious look at the issue of infant genital cut-ting in North American society, Hurren offered up a flippant review of intact and circumcised penises that was light on facts and minimizes the seriousness of the issue.

While some will defend genital cut-ting of male infants as a religious rite among certain groups and carrying medical benefit, the reality is that the procedure is grossly unethical and so-called “benefits” are greatly exaggerated, if not entirely scientifically untenable.

To provide Hurren with a few of the pertinent facts, circumcised penises are less sensitive, often crooked and are prone to painful skin bridges. Comparatively, as anyone with an intact lover can tell you, intact penises are very sensitive. Simply put, there is no benefit to genital cutting, be it female or male.

While no one should feel inadequate or bad about his body, particularly when he was not permitted to make the choice for himself, we will be far better off as a society when we ditch the archaic, offensive practice of infant genital cutting.

At the end of the day, individuals—not parents, doctors and practitioners of antiquated mythology—should have control over what is done to their own body.

Mustangs lose out on berth to West Final after 5–3 loss

The Mustangs scored three goals within a 17-minute span—all com-ing from Western superstar Zach Harnden.

“He is an unbelievable performer and the bigger the game gets, the bigger he performs. It is unfortu-nate that that performance went to a little bit of a waste, but I mean it is a good sign,” Powers said. “Your best players have to be your best players in the biggest games, and he was.”

Unfortunately for the ‘Stangs, that is when their luck ended.

The last half of the game saw a slew of goals by the Warriors, leaving the Mustangs with another disap-pointing loss to their season.

Although they may be done for this year, Powers comments on how the future will stay bright for the team, as most of the Mustangs’ core will be back next year.

“They’ve got a really great ros-ter coming back […] they have got

a really good team without many holes to fill,” Powers said. “A lot of first-year guys got a lot of ice time this year […] showing they are elite players in this league, so that is a great sign moving forward.”

As for Coach Powers, his tenure as interim head coach may be over, but expect him to be back in his old role—assisting returning coach Clarke Singer.

“My job as a teacher sort of keeps me grounded in the city of London, so as of right now, I’ll be back help-ing Clarke, and happily doing so,” Powers said.

Campbell shuts the door with 29 saves in win over Lauriermustangs exorcise demons to head to finals

richard raycraftsPorts editor

The Mustangs women’s hockey team is heading to the Ontario University Athletics final after defeating the Laurier Golden Hawks 1–0 on Sunday. The victory came in the deciding game of a three-game series against Laurier, which the Mustangs won two games to one.

“I think [the team] feels pretty confident,” Brian Gosling, Mustangs manager, said. “Laurier was a huge victory for us, defeating them was a confidence builder for sure.”

Chris Higgins, Mustangs head coach, said teamwork played a large role in the team’s success.

“I think our success is built on the fact that everyone on our team is contributing 100 per cent,” Higgins said. “It’s a team game and we’ve played like a team.”

The Mustangs got sweet revenge with the win, as it was Laurier who defeated them in last year’s OUA final.

The victory did not come easily, however, as both teams had trouble finding the back of the net, ren-dering the majority of the match a stalemate. Shots were nearly even as well, with 30 for Western and 29 for Laurier.

The Mustangs put on a lot of pressure in the first period, firing 17 shots on net to Laurier’s three, but were unable to take the lead. The second period was a mirror image of the first—with Laurier taking control and out-shooting Western 17–7.

Western finally took the lead with the game’s only goal late in the third period, as Western’s Kendra Deller found a way to get the puck past Laurier goaltender Erika Thunder. The goal came off of a beautiful pass from teammate Stacey Scott.

Mustangs goaltender Kelly

Campbell put up another stel-lar performance, shutting out the Golden Hawks and allowing the Mustangs to come away with the win.

“Our goaltending was strong, Kelly was phenomenal in net,” Gosling commented. “It’s such a team effort—besides Kelly, it’s really hard to single anyone out. Our defence has been solid, our penalty kill has been awesome.”

“The goaltending was excep-tional on both sides,” Higgins said. “Every player on both sides of the ice played their hearts out and, in

the end, we got one more bounce than they did.”

Gosling also attributed the team’s success to conditioning and stamina.

“Shift after shift, we didn’t fal-ter, so I think our conditioning throughout the playoffs has been our ace in the hole,” he said. “We kept up with [Laurier] in the third period when they were really put-ting it on, we were still able to fire on all cylinders.”

Laurier took six penalties to Western’s three. Despite the numer-ous chances, the Mustangs were

unable to capitalize.“With the power play, we’ve

had our opportunities—they just haven’t gone in the net,” Gosling said. “The power play has been there, but the hockey gods just weren’t cooperating.”

The Mustangs will now play the Queen’s Gaels in the final. Queen’s swept the Guelph Gryphons in their semifinal series two games to zero. Western had the advantage in the season series, twice defeating the Gaels 3–2.

“They’re a veteran team, they’ve been to the nationals before,”

Higgins said of the Queen’s team. “They’ve got some big, strong, pow-erful forwards, they’re well coached and they’ve got a lot of skill.”

Gosling expressed his belief that discipline would be essential to come out on top against the Gaels.

“We tried to stay out of the box, and I think that was a huge suc-cess,” Gosling commented. “I think that is really going to be key against Queen’s because they have some firepower.”

Catch the Mustangs in the first game of the OUA final at 7 p.m. at Thompson Arena this evening.

LOOK MA, ONE FOOT! The women’s hockey team will be playing in the OUA Finals for the second year in a row. The Mustangs got some sweet revenge en route to the finals when they beat the Laurier Golden Hawks in their semifinal matchup—the very team downed the Mustangs in the finals last year.

warriors’ fierce offence too much for ‘Stangs

Piotr Angiel Gazette

Jason SinukoffsPorts editor

Last year the Mustangs men’s hockey team’s incredible playoff run led them to the Ontario University Athletics Championships. This year, the Mustangs were hoping for a case of déjà vu on Sunday when they faced off against the Waterloo Warriors for the third and final game of their OUA West semifinal match-up.

“Your expectations are to always win the game. I think we had a lot of confidence from outplaying them in their own arena [in game two],” Pat Powers, interim head coach for the Mustangs, said.

However, the Warriors probably still had a bitter taste in their mouths from losing the season series 3–1 to the Mustangs—and would not sim-ply roll over and hand the Mustangs

a berth to the OUA West finals.The Warriors put up quite the

fight against the Mustangs, and although close, managed to sneak away from Thompson Arena with the 5–3 win. Despite the loss, Coach Powers felt, for the second game in a row, they outplayed their opponents and deserved the win.

“I think we played very well in game three and I think we deserved to win, but unfortunately we didn’t,” Powers said.

The first period, which was a back-and-forth affair, served as a microcosm for the entire game, with the Warriors getting the better of the Mustangs for the first half of the period—both Kirt Hill and Justin Larson potted a goal past goaltender John Cullen.

From then until the third period, however, it was all purple and white.
