That's the start of a 15-game schedule that will also see the Horns play host to the Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ of Saskatchewan Huskies, Mount Royal Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ Cougars, UNBC Timberwolves, UBC Thunderbirds and the Trinity Western Spartans.<br> <br> The Horns won four games last season and narrowly missed the playoffs with 18 standings points. They will once again play in the six-team Prairie Division, looking for one of three playoff spots.<br> <br> The regular season concludes on Oct. 27 followed by three rounds of playoffs in four days at the home of the first-place finisher in the five-team Pacific Division. The Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ of New Brunswick in Fredericton, N.B. is the site of the 2013 CIS men's championship tournament, Nov. 7-10.<br> <br> On the women's side, the Horns are coming off a one-win season but with 21 players eligible to return from last season's roster (that included 11 first-year players), it should be a much more seasoned and cohesive group.<br> <br> The Canada West women's set-up differs from the men in that only one, 13-team division exists, with the top eight teams qualifying for playoffs.<br> <br> After opening the schedule on the road with games against the Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ of Alberta and Mount Royal Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ Cougars, the Horns will host the Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ of Winnipeg Wesmen on Saturday, Sept. 14 at the U of L Community Stadium.<br> <br> The Horns will also play host to the Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ of Manitoba Bisons the next day and host the UNBC Timberwolves, UBC Thunderbirds and Trinity Western Spartans to round out the home schedule.<br> <br> Canada West playoffs open with quarter-finals on Oct. 26, after which teams will be re-ranked for semifinals and medal matches on Nov. 2-3. The Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ of Toronto hosts CIS Nationals, Nov. 7-10.<br> <br> For a look at the complete Pronghorns soccer schedule visit the website at <a href="http://www.gohorns.ca" rel="nofollow">www.gohorns.ca</a>.

schema:articleBody"> <p>Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ of Lethbridge Pronghorns head coach Mike Hansen has begun re-tooling the men's basketball roster with the signing of a pair of ACAC all-stars from the Lethbridge College Kodiaks.<br> <br> Hansen announced the signing of southern Alberta products Rob Olsen and Jared Baker on Monday afternoon, wlecoming a pair of players whom Hansen previously coached at Lethbridge College during the 2009-2010 season. Olsen and Baker then embarked on their two year missions for the Church of Jesus Christ Latter Day Saints. This past fall, both returned to the Kodiaks program and did not miss a beat, finishing one-two in team scoring.<br> <br> Both Olsen and Baker have also excelled in the classroom, with each being named CCAA Academic All-Canadians this past season.<br> <br> Olsen, a 6'1" guard from Cardston, Alta., finished fifth in South Division scoring averaging just over 19 points per game and was named an ACAC first team all-star, while shooting 49.6% from the field and over 47% from behind the arc. He also added 6 rebounds per game and 2.39 assists.<br> <br> Prior to joining the Kodiaks, Olsen starred for the Cardston Cougars and was named the Southern Alberta High School Basketball League MVP in his final season (2008-09).<br> <br> "Rob is an incredible talent and an outstanding young man," says Hansen. "I believe Rob is the best player to come out of Cardston since his uncle and former high school coach Ken McMurray. Ken was an all-Canadian for the Horns and I'm confident that Rob will have the same success with us."<br> <br> Hansen adds that Olsen is also very accomplished off the court and represents the ideal of the Canada West student-athlete.<br> <br> "Rob represents everything we look for in a recruit, he was not only an all-star, but a CCAA Academic All-Canadian. He is a character kid and will be a great ambassador for the Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ of Lethbridge."<br> <br> A Raymond, Alta., product, Jared Baker was named an ACAC second-team all-star this past season and averaged 15 points per game for the Kodiaks, while adding just under 6 rebounds and 3.13 assists per contest.<br> <br> In high school, Baker was a two sport athlete, winning provincial titles for the Raymond Comets in both football (2008) and Basketball (2009). He led the Southern Alberta High School Basketball League in scoring in grade 11 with 24.1 points per game and was named league MVP in 2007-08.<br> <br> "I'm very excited to be coaching Jared again," says Hansen. "He is such an incredible competitor and is willing to do whatever is needed for a team to be successful.<br> <br> "He has evolved from being a shooter to an all-around player. Jared has a high basketball IQ and the success he's experienced playing for Todd Heggie's Raymond teams shows in the way he carries himself. His CCAA Academic All-Canadian also demonstrates that Jared expects excellence for himself."<br> <br> The men's basketball team will look to round out its 2013-14 recruiting class in the coming weeks.</p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field-group-format group_related_topics field-group-div group-related-topics block-title-body speed-fast effect-none"><h2><span>Related

Gallagher then set the track community on its ear with a dominant performance at the Canadian Interuniversity Sport national championships, claiming gold in the weight throw for yet another throws national title for the program.</p><p>"I just wanted to place higher than what I was ranked going into the meet," says Gallagher, who was ranked fifth nationally. "A fourth-place finish would have been fine with me and getting on the podium would have been awesome – that was my thinking."</p><p><div class="image-caption-container" style="width:500px;"><img src="/unews/sites/default/files/main/articles/athletics-gallagher.jpg" alt="Kayla Gallagher" title="First-year Pronghorn thrower Kayla Gallagher continues the long tradition of excellence in the Horns&amp;#039; throws program."><div class="image-caption">First-year Pronghorn thrower Kayla Gallagher continues the long tradition of excellence in the Horns&#039; throws program.</div></div></p><p>She exceeded awesome by throwing 18.24 metres in the CIS final, a personal best by nearly two metres and almost a metre better than the rest of the field. At just 19, Gallagher is already on the fast track to a stellar career, and serves as another example of the talented athletes that head coach Larry Steinke continues to bring into the program.</p><p>Of course, Steinke had the inside track on Gallagher all along. A Truro, Nova Scotia product, Gallagher comes from a throwing hot spot, training with the Truro Lions club that spawned former Pronghorns Kate Forbes (the CIS Championship Meet record holder in weight throw) and Jonathan Doucette.</p><p>Her Truro coach, Paul Millman, is the father of fellow rookie Peter Millman, and is a close friend of Steinke's, so much so that Gallagher had twice visited the U of L for training camps as a high school athlete.</p><p>"I was never going to stay home for track," says Gallagher. "The biggest decision for me was whether I would go to the United States or stay in Canada but I honestly never really looked at any schools in the U.S., it just made sense to stay in Canada."</p><p>And to work with Steinke, the national team coach who has consistently produced the country's best young throwers.</p><p>Of course, it wasn't all record-setting throws and medals for Gallagher this season. She actually opened the Canada West season well off form.</p><p>"It was a rough start to the season, I was throwing worse than I had been two years ago," she says. "I had to reevaluate what I thought I could accomplish."</p><p>Devoting more time to weight throw (she also throws discus and shot put), Gallagher started to see results. She threw a personal best at the Canada West championship meet and established the longest throw ever for a CIS rookie in winning gold.</p><p>"When I threw 18-plus metres at CIS, it didn't surprise me because that's what I'd been throwing in the two weeks of practice leading in. The fact that I did it in a competition as opposed to just in practice was the big thing," she says.</p><p>She credits Steinke's coaching technique for much of her success, as well as the opportunity to train alongside Olympians such as Jim and Heather Steacy.</p><p>"I really enjoy Larry as a coach, he explains things really well and can show you how to correct things," she says. "He uses a lot of visual techniques, either with a video camera or by physically just showing you what to do, and that works for me because I'm a very visual learner."</p><p>Her transition to university life is an ongoing learning cycle. She admits that the time constraints of training for track and working a job take their toll on studying. Interested in psychology, Gallagher says she is working hard on improving her time management skills.</p><p>Considering the strides she made in the throwing circle in just one season, it's safe to say that when Gallagher puts her mind to something, she's likely to reap the rewards very soon.</p><p><strong>GET THE FACTS</strong></p><p>&middot; Gallagher is currently training with Steinke and a group of elite throwers in Phoenix, AZ through Apr. 8<br> <br> &middot; Millman was named Canada West Rookie of the Year<br> <br> &middot; Gallagher has set her sights on breaking Kate Forbes' CIS weight throw record of 19.66 metres (2005 CIS Championships), then wants to take aim at Heather Steacy's Canada West and school records (20.28 metres)<br> <br> &middot; Gallagher will compete for Nova Scotia at the Canada Summer Games in August, and hopes to turn a strong performance at the Canadian national meet in Quebec into an invitation to the Pan American Junior Track and Field Championships in Peru, also in August</p><p><em>This story first appeared in the April 2013 edition of the Legend.

href="http://www.cis-sic.ca" rel="nofollow">CIS</a>) national championship tournament with a 35-0 win over the host Trent Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ Excalibur.<br> <br> The <a href="http://www.canadawest.org" rel="nofollow">Canada West</a> champion Pronghorns jumped out to an early lead as they tallied three converted tries in the game's first 13 minutes.<br> <br> "We got off to a great start today and did well for the first bit to control the game," said Horns head coach Neil Langevin. "Then we got bogged down in some handling errors and some ball control issues. All in all we did enough to move on and we are pretty well rested and fairly good on the injury front."<br> <br> CIS All-Canadian Kelsey Willoughby (Lethbridge, Alta.) opened the scoring for Lethbridge with a try in the fifth minute. Pronghorn fly-half and Lakefield, Ont. native Sophie Butler added a try of her own three minutes later. Canada West Rookie of the Year Kayla Moleschi (Williams Lake, B.C.) capped off the first-half scoring for the Pronghorns with a 50-metre run in the 13th minute. Laura Murphy-Burke (Surrey, BC) was 3-for-3 on converts in the first half.<br> <br> It was after the Moleschi try that the Excalibur dug in their heels and showed the grit, toughness and never-say-die attitude they have become known for.<br> <br> "We saw what we were made of and went toe-to-toe with the Canada West champs," said Trent assistant coach Craig Harris. "Once we got the butterflies out we were right there against a talented team. We'll take a lot from it and carry that over to our game on Sunday."<br> <br> After the first three quick Pronghorn scores, the Excalibur kept Lethbridge off the board for nearly 30 minutes until Moleschi added her second try of the contest 15 minutes into the second half.<br> <br> Moleschi capped off the scoring with a 65th minute try. Sarah Gordon (Surrey, BC) kicked her second conversion of the half to make the final score 35-0.<br> <br> Moleschi's three-try performance propelled her to player of the game honours for the Horns. Ashley Burton was named player of the game for the Excalibur.<br> <br> Lethbridge will next take on St. Francis Xavier in the final Pool-A game for each team. The match-up will take place Saturday at 8:30 a.m. MDT. The game can be viewed at <a href="http://www.ssncanada.ca" rel="nofollow">ssncanada.ca</a><br> <br> "We look forward to tomorrow and the chance to play St. FX in what will amount to a semifinal

field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item even" property="rnews:articlebody schema:articleBody"> <p>Fans of <a href="http://www.canadawest.org" rel="nofollow">Canada West Athletics</a> and the Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ of Lethbridge <a href="http://www.uleth.ca/horns" rel="nofollow">Pronghorns</a> will find it much easier to follow their teams this season with the introduction of <a href="http://canadawest.tv" rel="nofollow">CanadaWest.TV</a>, a new web-based broadcasting service that debuts this month.<br> <br> What it means for Horns followers is the opportunity to watch every U of L basketball game, both home and away, as well as all home hockey games and a select number of road contests.<br> <br> "Our biggest goal with CanadaWest.TV is to try and strengthen the Canada West brand," says U of L Sports Information and Events Co-ordinator, Eoin Colquhoun.<br> <br> Partnering with Stretch Internet, Canada West will be able to present a first of its kind university sport broadcast network. It will serve initially as the exclusive home to all Canada West basketball and volleyball games, along with selected games in other sports including football, hockey and soccer.<br> <div class="image-caption-container" style="width:300px;"><img src="/unews/sites/default/files/main/articles/canadawesttvlogo.jpg" alt=""></div><br> "The big step towards this took place last year when we mandated that all Canada West basketball games needed to be webcast," says Colquhoun. "Volleyball is also mandatory and then it will be up to individual schools to make decisions on what sports they decide to webcast. This year we'll also include our home hockey games."<br> <br> Not only will the games be available by accessing CanadaWest.TV online from your computer, all streamed games will also be available on Flash 10.1-enabled mobile devices and, for the first time in Canadian university sport, on all iPhone OS devices &ndash; including the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch.<br> <br> The overriding theme of the partnership is to expose Canada West sports to as many people as possible.<br> <br> "It provides us with a unique opportunity as a conference and as individual schools to have our product seen by fans across Western Canada and around the world," says Ben Matchett, Canada West VP, Marketing. "Our new mobile platform also means they will not miss a minute of the action no matter where they go."<br> <br> For Colquhoun, the logistics of staging a webcast are relatively simple, thanks to the support of Stretch Internet. He says the conference looked at eight to 10 proposals before signing on with Stretch.<br> <br> "They provide us with all the software we need," he says. "We literally need to have somebody running the camera and whatever else we want to do with it is up to us. Their software allows us to interlay some stats and so forth and as we learn how to work with it, we'll probably be able to do a little more."<br> <br> It's up to member schools as to whether they will include play-by-play description of the games. Colquhoun says that, at least for the first year, the Horns will go with picture only.<br> <br> "What's great about it is that it provides one place where any Canada West fan of any school can go and find the webcasts," he says. "It's not a different location for every school or every sport as it may have been in the past, it's all in one place and hopefully we will expand fans of the whole Canada West product as a result."<br> <br> <strong>GET THE FACTS</strong><br> <br> &bull; Available at <a href="http://canadawest.tv" rel="nofollow">http://canadawest.tv</a>, the first game broadcast on the new network was the Sept. 2 Canada West football game between the Regina Rams and UBC Thunderbirds.<br> <br> &bull; The Horns debut on the network Sept. 30 when the men's hockey team hosts the Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ of Saskatchewan.<br> <br> &bull; The Canada West basketball season begins Nov. 4. Pronghorn fans will be able to watch the Horns on the road at the Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ of Winnipeg.<br> <br> <em><strong>This story first appeared in the September issue of the Legend.
