A SILVER MEDAL AND A NEAR MISS FOR MOHAWK BADMINTON

EDMONTON - After sweeping aside their opponents to win the gold medal in the OCAA championships, Mohawk's women's doubles team lost their final match at the Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association Badminton National Championship in Edmonton March 1.

Victoria Hall and Kimloung Lim turned in another outstanding performance in the national event, going 5-0 in preliminary play and winning their semi-final. But they dropped a three-set decision to Powin Lau and Jessica Yu of the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology (NAIT) in the final. The scores were 12-21, 21-19, 10-21.

The Mohawk men's doubles team of Adam D'Agostino and Kianoosh Moslemi, who were 2-3 in the prelims, still qualified for the semi-finals, but were defeated, leaving them to play for a bronze medal. But they lost 19-21, 18-21 to Andy Ko and Jake Perry from NAIT to finish in fourth place.
