It’s Wednesday, and as we reach midweek, it means its time for the launch of another episode of Varsity Letters — The Podcast.
Today we focus on football and basketball.
Joining us to begin the program is St. Thomas More Knights football coach Steve De Lazzari, who talks about all the little things which have added up to a six-game win streak for his team heading into Friday’s regular season finale: A battle for the Eastern Conference title against Surrey’s Lord Tweedsmuir Panthers.
We’ll also be joined by a pair of basketball coaches.
Deb Huband will lead her UBC Thunderbirds into the opening week of the Canada West season as they hit the road to face the Regina Cougars for games Friday and Saturday.
As well, Bobby Braich stops by to chat about the prospects for the Yale Lions’ senior girls basketball team, a squad which could be one of the nice surprises at the top level of the game this season. Yale will take part in the annual Tsumura Basketball Invitational Dec. 11-14 at the Langley Events Centre.
