Guelph wins first-ever national track & field title, sweeps both men's and women's competitions FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
MONTREAL (CIS) - The University of Guelph Gryphons have captured both the men's and women's national titles at the CIS track and field championships, which concluded Saturday at Richard Tomlinson Fieldhouse on the campus of McGill University.
It marked the first time that Guelph had won either title and was the sixth time in CIS history that one institution swept both banners in the same season.
The three-day competition featured six fieldhouse records and only one CIS championship meet record, which occurred in the final competition of the weekend as Calgary won the men's 4x400-metre relay in a sizzling three minutes, 14.12 seconds to beat the 15-year-old standard of 3:14.60 held by Western since 1993.
Complete results are available online at www.athletics.mcgill.ca or www.cisport.ca/e/championships/track/2008.
Sam Effah of the Calgary Dinos, was voted male athlete of the meet. He amassed four gold medals, including the 60-metre sprint and the 300m in addition to a pair of relays (4x200, 4x400). The Calgary-born sophomore had been named earlier in the week as the CIS male athlete of the year.
Regina's Janine Polischuk, garnered female athlete-of-the-meet honours. She won gold medals in both the long and triple jumps and had a silver-medal finish in the 60m hurdles.
Guelph's Dave Scott-Thomas earned both the men's and women's coach-of-the-year awards.
The Guelph men, which tallied 66 points overall to finish first of 19 teams, captured the banner despite not winning any gold medals. They ended up with three silvers and a pair of bronzes. The Calgary Dinos, which led all teams in the medal count with six (5 gold, 1 bronze), finished three points back with 63. Windsor (60), Western Ontario (58) and Sherbrooke (50) rounded out the top five.
On the women's side, Guelph led the medal count with seven, including three golds, two silvers and a pair of bronzes. The Gryphons totaled 96.5 points to finish first of 22 teams. Western was second with 90, followed by Windsor (80.5), Calgary (73) and Saskatchewan (53).
Fieldhouse record that toppled on Day 3, included Calgary's aforementioned men's 4x400, which was composed of Effah in the leadoff position, followed by Evan Kimick, Mike Saizew and Trent Ratzlaff.
Other Fieldhouse marks fell in the men's 1500m, won by Victoria's Geoff Martinson (3:48.82) and the women's 4x400 relay won by Calgary in 3:46.19. The Dinos quartet was composed of Amonn Nelson, Tessa Gray, Kelsey Lotwin and Holly Ratzlaff.
Rounding out the Day 3 men's gold medalists Was York's David St. Bernard (triple jump, 15.34m), Toronto's Jason Wurster (pole vault, 5.35m), Alberta's Matthew Doherty (shot put, 16.92m), Calgary's Trent Ratzlaff (600m, 1:18.61), and Calgary's 4x200 relay team (1:27.32), which was composed of Effah, Justin Sinclair, Mike Saizew and Evan Kemick.
Other Day 3 gold medalists on the women's side included Guelph's Michelle Moody (high jump, 1.78m), Calgary's Holly Ratzlaff (600m, 1:30.21), Victoria's Ashley Hinther (1500, 4:31.60) and Windsor's 4x200 relay (1:38.50), composed of Noelle Montcalm, Shavonne Davis, Nicole Sassine and Jennifer O'Brien.
All gold medalists automatically earn CIS all-Canadian first team honours, while silver medalists receive second team status.

Résumé Jour 3: championnats d'athlétisme de SIC 2008
8 mars 2008
MONTRÉAL - Les Gryphons de l'Université de Guelph ont remporté les deux bannières du Championnat universitaire d'athétisme de Sport interuniversitaire canadien qui a pris fin ce samedi à l'Université McGill en terminant premier tant chez les femmes que chez les hommes.

Durant les trois jours de compétition, six records de piste ont été brisés et un record de championnat est survenu ce samedi quand les Dinos de l'Université de Calgary ont remporté le relai 4x400m en 3:14,12 secondes battant l'ancienne marque de 3:14,60 réalisé en 1993 par l'Université de la Saskatchewan. Le quatuor recordman était composé de Samuel Effah, Evan Kimick, Mike Saizew et Trent Ratzlaff.
