Just search KOAA News5 Report a typo For the Gleneagle Talons senior girls' rugby team its 21-0 win over Yale in last Saturday’s BC Secondary Schools Rugby Union AAA final was a measure of revenge for a loss to the same side in the 2023 championship For coach Simon Quinto, though, the victory was the culmination of a years-long "labour of love" to rebuild the school’s rugby program and raise the sport’s level in the Tri-Cities and across the province “It felt like rebuilding a house that had a lot of history,” said Quinto of Gleneagle’s rugby program that had won provincial banners six times in the past “We needed to bring back the reputation of being a top contender.” A post shared by @talonsrugby The Talons went into the championship final in Abbotsford ranked first in the province healthier and more able to cope with the rigorous schedule of playing three tough games in four days He said it “takes a lot of player management and depth on the roster to ensure we stay healthy We were able to rest key players who needed it in the first two rounds.” By the time Gleneagle reached the final against Yale the players were determined they wouldn’t be denied again even as the defending champions relentlessly pressed the attack in the first 10 minutes “We talked about taking pride in the physicality of our tackles and to create turnovers from our counterattacks,” Quinto said A try by Grade 11 flanker Evy Moore broke the dam followed soon after by another from Grade 11 prop Sasha McKee Tough defence by juniors Poppy-Anne Alcock and Emilie Sinclair sophomore Arielle Hunter and senior Natalie Zagorwicz kept Yale at bay and a third try in the closing minutes of the match by Sasha McKee sealed the deal Grade 12 winger Ruby Hanna was successful on all three conversions Quinto said girls high school rugby in the Tri-Cities has progressed substantially in recent years The coaching is better and teams are playing with more structure and variance in their attack “We are part of some really exciting rugby,” he said Give the Gift of Gleneagle with a Gleneagle Group Gift Card Surprise your loved ones with the freedom to enjoy unforgettable experiences at

Hyacks that turned into a pumpkin After winning its first Burnaby-New West league title in 35 years the Hyacks run to a berth in the provincials later this month was grounded by the upstart Gleneagle Talons from Coquitlam The Hyacks needed to win the match to be able to play for Fraser North’s third spot in the provincial tournament that will be played Nov a path necessitated by New West’s earlier loss to the Heritage Woods Kodiaks the top-ranked team in the Coquitlam league The route looked achievable when Lauchlan McGowan opened the scoring for the Hyacks early firing a shot across the box and past the legs of the Talons’ keeper But Gleneagle was resilient and scored the equalizer on a free kick by Bradyen Truong awarded right at the end of the first half sending the match to extra time where Ali Haji netted the winner as time was winding down which was the third-ranked team in Coquitlam with a record of four wins and three losses in the regular season They’ll get that opportunity

The county in 2020 issued $1.2 million in general obligation bonds to cover the lawsuits the county will now receive a large piece of common area within the project that lies adjacent to other county land MTAK and SEV will receive a number of county lots The agreement also calls for a trail corridor connecting portions of the property with nearby conservation lands “The eventual goal would be to connect the trail,” said Erickson if the plat for Gleneagle is every vacated or abandoned that the county would assure that MTAK and SEV have access to their property.” Erickson said a number of other steps will likely follow including a possible boundary-line relocation for the county's property said the county was cooperative in the process “These are two particular landowners that created LLCs that became concerned when the development began in Gleneagle,” said Cotner “They have plans with respect to making certain that the development approved by Missoula County doesn't happen It works out well for my clients and works out well for Missoula County.” The agreement between the county, MTAK Landholdings and SEV Enterprises, brings the saga of the Gleneagle Subdivision one step closer to final resolution.\nRead More Retired District Judge Ed McLean issued an order in 2016, awarding partial summary judgment to the plaintiffs.
