CAPILANO COLLEGE is in the throes of basketball madness as both men’s and women's teams set course on the road to the B.C. Championships.

The Blues — ranked third in B.C., ninth in the nation — tip-off against Okanagan University College tomorrow at 6 p.m. in men’s quarter-final action in Kamloops at the 1996 B.C. collegiate tournament. Semis are set for Friday, with the bronze and gold medal games running back-to-back at 6 p.m. on Saturday night.

Led by Sutherland graduate Chris Reimer and Aaron Mitchell, and under the third year of tutelage from head coach Phil Langley, the Blues are poised to improve on their best season in over a decade.

The top two teams at the B.C. tournament qualify to defend for the national collegiate crown in Montreal, March 6-9.

The Lady Blues, meanwhile, have also, though perhaps more quietly, gone about their business of winning games during the regular season.

Head coach Greg Zavediuk leads his squad into the B.C. tournament tomorrow, as the sixth-ranked Lady Blues take on third-ranked Trinity Western University at Columbia Bible College in Clearbrook. Tip-off is 6 p.m. If the Lady Blues can get past the Spartans, look for the possi- bility of an upset as both teams in Capilano's path to the provincial championship title — Douglas College and Fraser Valley College — both lost to the Lady Blues during the regular season.
