The onlyway is upCity could explore building
height increase
The City of Richmond wants to explore thepros and cons of increasing building heights inthe city centre.
But before developers start rubbing theirhands in delight at this potentially upwardcurve, the city is going to great lengths toensure everyone is aware it’s just a study and noassumptions are made that maximum buildingheights will definitely rise.
The proposal to look into the benefits andimplications of increasing the height from 47metres — which was due to go before citycouncil’s planning committee on Tuesday — wassparked by an application from Townline Homesto rezone a small section of the city centre onNo. 3 Road between Park and Cook roads.
City staff are proposing the city work withthe developer on a study that examines allaspects of increasing the height beyond the fed-eral regulations.
However, no matter the outcome of a citystudy and any city council rezoning approval,only Transport Canada can change the ruleswith their own study — and their study can onlybe initiated by a request from the YVR.
According to a report by the city’s managerof policy planning, Terry Crowe, YVR hasbeen asked several times since 2004 to requestTransport Canada carry out the aforementionedstudy on increasing building heights in the citycentre core.
And, as it can take up to three years forTransport Canada to complete its study, citystaff think it’s a good idea to carry out its owninvestigation now, affording Richmond “ampletime” to examine its findings.
“…council and others (citizens, communitygroups, developers) have expressed an interestin having buildings higher … for a variety ofreasons (more varied skyline, efficient build-ing forms, better use of limited space),” wroteCrowe.
Steveston Highway and a southboundlane on Highway 99 near the MasseyTunnel had to be closed Monday afternoonafter a car lost control and knocked off aguard rail on an overpass.
The crash happened around 1:30 p.m.on Steveston Highway and left a 10-footsection of rail dangling perilously over
Highway 99. Both the overpass and onelane of the 99 below were closed for sev-eral hours to allow safety crews to work.
The accident crippled traffic flow onSteveston Highway and caused a two-milelong tailback on the 99.
It’s not clear why the driver of thecrashed car lost control.

Show hopes to leave big impressionAnti-bullying rock concert comes to MacNeill secondary
A new musical show making the roundsin B.C.’s schools is rocking the anti-bullyingmessage to impact a wider audience.
It’s called Kindness Rocks and it makes astop at MacNeill secondary next Monday, acouple of days ahead of Pink Shirt Day andBC Anti-Bullying Day on Feb. 27.
The show’s producer, Jeanette O’Keeffe,said the event is designed to be about asclose as you can get to staging a full-fledgedrock and roll arena gig.
“There’s a full band, a light show andmusic the kids can relate to,” O’Keefe said.
But beyond the glitz and the glamour ofthe performance, the core anti-bullying mes-
sage is being relayedthrough the music andpersonal stories of theperformers.
“We don’t want to bepreaching to the kids thatthey need to be nice,”
O’Keefe said, adding that real-life experi-ences have greater impact.
“The performers will be telling their ownstories, how their lives were impacted by bul-lying, and even how some who were bulliesthemselves had their lives affected.”
O’Keefe added Kindness Rocks, which issponsored by Coast Capital Savings, is thefirst to present an anti-bullying message in
this format.“There’s really nothing else like it. And
for some kids it will be their first rock con-cert which will leave a big impression onthem, as well as a pretty powerful message
about bullying,” she said.To view the promotional video on Youtube,

Event: Resonates with SOS workContinued from page 3
Any federal study carried outwould determine if and wherean increase may occur, mostlikely to be an area bound fromWestminster Highway to BlundellRoad and Minoru Boulevard toGarden City Road.
If the city/Townline Homesstudy goes ahead, it will likelyfocus on a smaller area, fromCook Road to Granville Avenueand from No. 3 to Garden Cityroads.
To ensure speculation doesn’trun rife over an increase in build-ing height, staff propose the citynotify the Urban DevelopmentInstitute to advise property own-ers, developers and the generalpublic that the study is a one-timedeal and not to assume there will,in fact, be a change in restrictions.
Speculation: Could run rife

School district probes 3-year calendar
A man entered guilty pleas Thursday inconnection with the fatal stabbings of hisestranged wife and a male friend of hers ina McDonald’s on No. 3 Road and GranvilleAvenue.
Chang Xi Wang pleaded guilty to themanslaughter of his ex-wife, Yan Lin, 36, andto the second-degree murder of Zhe Hu, 37.
The accused had originally been chargedwith the second-degree murder of Lin butpleaded guilty to the lesser and includedoffence of manslaughter.
The pleas were entered during a briefappearance before B.C. Supreme CourtJustice Arne Silverman in Vancouver.
Wang sat quietly in the prisoner’s dockwith a Mandarin interpreter by his side.
Don Morrison, Wang’s lawyer, told thejudge that there would be an agreed statementof facts and possibly a joint book of authori-ties to deal with parole eligibility issues.
A 15-day jury trial had been scheduled toget under way March 18. The sentencing forWang has been scheduled for March 28.
Second-degree murder carries a mandato-ry sentence of life in prison with a minimumof 10 years and a maximum of 25 years ofparole ineligibility. The only sentencing issueon the murder count will be parole eligibility.
Manslaughter carries a maximum sentenceof life in prison but usually results in a lesserjail sentence.
The two victims were stabbed to death infront of patrons and staff at the restaurant onNo. 3 Road in Richmond on Aug. 28, 2009.
Wang, 33, was arrested soon after theslayings and has remained in custody since.
Richmond School District is look-ing at cementing the school calendarthree years in advance.
The move follows the provincialgovernment’s relaxation in Decemberof the rules surrounding school cal-endars.
Since then, the district and schoolboard have been in consultation withparents, students, teachers, staff andcommunity organizations about set-ting the two-week spring break instone.
The Board of Education’s chair,Donna Sargent, and superintendent,Monica Pamer, have also met withother Metro Vancouver school dis-tricts on the subject of three-year andbalanced calendars.
And the upshot thus far is a con-
sensus for a degree of certainty to beimplanted into the calendar to allowpeople to plan with more confidencefor the likes of vacations, babysitting,daycare and time off work.
“Given the consistent feedbackfrom parents and staff to have a long-term, permanent and predictableStandard Calendar … it is recom-mended that serious consideration begiven for the approval of the proposedthree year school calendar,” wrotethe district’s assistant superintendent,Wendy Lim, in her report, whichwas discussed Monday by the schoolboard.
More public consultation will takeplace between now and the springbreak before the board decides toimplement a three-year calendar.
Sargent said any three-year calen-dar would still be subject to changeand wouldn’t be “100 per cent guar-
anteed.”“Like everything else, it could
come back to us every year to look at,but I think the if we give out this levelof consistency to the public, it wouldbe difficult to change,” said Sargent.
And the whole discussion on a dis-trict and/or regional balanced calendar— whereby schools take three four-week breaks per year — may have totake a backseat should a three-yearcalendar be introduced.
“That is something we will haveto discuss over the next few weeks,”added Sargent.
“We’ve had several discussions ata Metro level about everybody chang-ing their calendars to be the same.
“Whether that’s a balanced calen-dar or not, I’m not sure. It is some-thing that, within Metro, we’ve beentalking about a lot.”

Estranged husband pleads guilty in McDonald’s murder
For years, Vancouverresident Gurpreet Gill was amissing person whose familydesperately searched for her.
Now she has been con-firmed as a 2006 murder vic-tim and her husband JaswantSingh Gill has been chargedwith killing her.
Vancouver PoliceSgt. Kevin McLaren saidMonday that the mystery ofGurpreet’s disappearance wassolved when human remainsfound in Richmond abouttwo weeks ago were con-firmed as those of the miss-ing woman.
McLaren said that policehad few clues to go on afterGurpreet’s relatives reportedher missing in 2006 toVancouver Police.
“As the missing person

McLaren said Gurpreet’sfamily became worried sevenyears ago when they didn’thear from the 33-year-old foran extended period of time.

While some people feel a compulsion topour their hearts out to their cab driver, con-fessing to crimes apparently falls outside thebounds of cabbie/passenger confidentiality.
A Richmond man is one of two allegedthieves behind bars after bragging to theirtaxi driver about a purse snatching theyhad just committed in North Vancouver onSaturday night.
Police say the men boarded a NorthVancouver bus and sat down next to a womanwho was riding alone.
After a few stops, one of the men snatchedthe woman’s purse and the two bolted.
The alleged thieves then hailed a cab andheaded to Downtown Vancouver.
During the trip, the suspects regaled theirdriver with tales of their exploits, and showedhim the woman’s purse and what appeared tobe a handgun.
As soon as he dropped off the pair, thecabbie called 9-1-1 to report the incident.
However, one of the men had alreadydrawn the attention of Vancouver police andwas arrested on Granville Street for breach ofprobation.
Investigators in Richmond caught up withthe second suspect on Monday night.
After a search of his home, RichmondRCMP found a replica pistol.
Travis William Nofield, a 19-year-oldLangley resident, is facing charges of robberyand possession of stolen property as well asbreach of probation.
Richmond resident Edward GeraldMcKay, 26, is being held on charges of pos-session of property obtained by crime, usingan imitation firearm during an offence, andpossession of an imitation firearm for a dan-gerous purpose.
“It is gratifying to see a quick resolu-tion to such a brazen robbery,” said Cpl.Doug Trousdell, spokesman for the NorthVancouver RCMP.
“Our investigators worked closelywith our partners at the Vancouver PoliceDepartment and Richmond RCMP.”

EDITORIAL OPINION
Aproposal by the Conservative government to lockup mentally ill offenders and throw away the key isunlikely to make our communities safer despite all the
rhetoric about public safety.The bill is just the latest in the Harper government’s ‘tough
on crime’ policies, which have seen the feds busy fighting acrime wave visible only to Conservative politicians.
In the latest target, Ottawa would have us believe mentally-ill killers are quickly being given passes to run riot on thestreets.
The bill creates a new category of “high-risk” offenderswhose cases won’t be reviewed until at least three years havepassed.
Missing from that announcement is the fact that most seri-ously ill offenders wouldn’t be getting out of their institutionsbefore that time anyway. Most people spend longer locked upin a forensic hospital than they do in jail.
Psychotic killings are horrifying, rare and impact the pub-lic psyche out of all proportion to their actual frequency. Theyare exactly the sort of example public policy should not bebased upon.
The new bill is likely to perpetuate fear and stigma aroundmental illness but does little to address real problems. What’sreally needed is help for the mentally ill prior to an episodethat results in violence.
In far too many cases, families have been seeking help foryears but not receiving it.
Money for social programs and medical help for the men-tally ill — including adequate followup — is what is needed,not crime laws that stigmatize those in the grip of medicalcrises.
Environmentalists can’t refuse everything

It seems to be very fash-ionable these days for folksto be opposed to all kindsof things, from pipelines tocoal exports to extractingnatural gas.
But how realistic is itto think that shutting downall these things won’t havea negative impact on theeconomy? Do the samefolks waving banners atrallies and shouting rhym-ing chants really think theirstandard of living won’tbe affected if all kinds ofindustrial development sim-ply disappear?
I know some peoplethink it’s unfair to pointout that many people whodemand the oil or coalindustries cease to exist relyon those same industriesin their daily lives. Thesesame people demand thatthere be more rapid transitlines instead of more auto-mobiles, and proudly ride abicycle instead of the car.
But they don’t seem torealize — or simply choosenot to — that coal is usedto make steel, which in turnbuilds those rapid transitlines and those bikes (andwind turbines, and hybridvehicles and all kinds of“green” alternatives).
Unfortunately, the cur-rent debate over some ofthese controversial projectslacks coherence and a rec-ognition that there are veryreal consequences to saying“no” to everything.
The question is, willthe debate start becominginformed?
The Kinder Morganpipeline may prove to be the
starting point. The EnbridgeNorthern Gateway pipelineseems to be dead, as theenvironmental movementhas effectively mobilizedagainst it.
But the Kinder Morganproject is fundamentallydifferent, and may spark amore reasoned conversa-tion. The big difference,of course, is that there isalready an existing pipelinealong the proposed routeand oil tankers have beenfilling up at the Burnabyrefinery and plying thewaters of Burrard Inlet andthe Strait of Georgia fordecades.
That’s a lot different thanbuilding a pipeline throughuntouched pristine wilder-ness, and sending tankersthrough waters they’venever travelled.
After all, Vancouver’sharbour is a working har-bour, with ships everywhereand small pools of oil vis-ible all over the place.
The debate on the KinderMorgan project is really justgetting started. I suspectit will lack the emotionsattached to the NorthernGateway pipeline, and theenvironmental movementwill have a harder time mar-shalling widespread opposi-tion to it.
Nevertheless, there
will be opposition. Somelocal mayors — notablyBurnaby’s Derek Corriganand Vancouver’s GregorRobertson — are adamantlyagainst it, as are some FirstNations (who seem to havea de facto veto over indus-trial development anyways,courtesy of certain courtrulings).
And it will be fascinatingto see how the NDP, shouldit win the election this May,handles this issue. The partywas quick to denounce theNorthern Gateway pipeline,which was taking a positionthat reflected a majority ofpublic opinion.
But the Kinder Morganproject is a more sensitiveone for the party, since itsactivist members no doubtoppose it but to last morethan one term in govern-ment it must ensure it’s notseen as anti-business.
The New Democrats alsohave to be wary of join-ing with the anti-frackingcrowd, since any morato-rium on the controversialpractice will have a dra-matic and negative impacton government revenues.
So it’s easy to say “no”all the time to all kinds ofcontroversial developments.But whichever party winsthe next election, it will finditself forced to say “yes” toa few of them.
Protest rallies and dem-onstrations are easy to pulloff. Governing withoutenough money coming inis not.

The Editor,There is an ancient fable, where a camel asks to put his
nose into a tent, and by morning, the entire camel is withinthe tent, and the original owner is out in the cold.
Apply this fable to the actions of the airlines at YVR. Overthe years, they have gone from serving the people to monsterspursuing their own interests.
The only reason, in truth, for the pursuit of the current fueldepot/pipeline is to increase the bottom line of the airlines, bybeing able to purchase offshore fuel at low prices.
Despite all the PR garbage we have been subjected to, themajority of Richmond residents realize the truth of the mat-ter and remain unalterably opposed to this whole haywirescheme.
It would appear to be long past time for the residents ofthe region to demand a meaningful voice in the operation ofYVR, and the dismissal of the current autocratic, bureaucraticleadership, who appear to be aiding and abetting this wholeshoddy mess.
Perhaps then, we could expect some respect for the envi-ronment, some respect for the citizens, and less of theseself-serving clowns seeking only to increase their hold, andprofits, from a supposedly public owned facility.

The Editor,The latest developments with respect to
the Canadian Senate indicate that this relic ofthe past should be put to rest.
The events relating to Senator Pat Brazeauand the irregularities in the out of townhousing claims by some Senators have casta shadow on this chamber of sleepy secondthought. A number of attempts to reform theSenate in the past have failed miserably. TheSenate, in its current form, seems to haveoutlived its usefulness.
Any attempts to reform the Senate in asatisfactory manner will require constitu-tional amendment.
This is like opening the Pandora’s Box.None of the central or Atlantic provinces maybe willing to give up what they have. This islikely to create a stalemate.
To have the Senators elected by theprovinces and then appointed by the PrimeMinister has some merit. Also, setting a time
limit of eight or nine years for the Senatorsmakes sense. However, such measures maynot be the lasting solution.
To simply abolish the Senate and thencome up with something more acceptable toCanadians seems to be the only viable solu-tion. However, to do that again appears tobe a formidable challenge. Canadians spendmore than $92 million to keep the Senategoing.
No doubt, there are some very hard work-ing and conscientious members of this cham-ber who take their responsibility seriously.
They are an exception. On the whole, ourSenate has become a repository of old, tiredand failed politicians and party loyalists.
For some, it is a plum job with little todo. Canadians deserve better than that. Theyneed a balanced, elected, equal and effectivechamber of sober second thought.

Re: “McNulty: Museum cost justified,”News, Jan. 25.
I am writing in response to the letterpublished in the Richmond News on Feb.1, 2013 concerning the costs associatedwith the Richmond Oval. I hope ourcity councillors read that letter and willrespond as soon as possible.
City administration should come forthwith a complete disclosure of all costs
pertaining to the Oval.It is our money that has been and
is being used for that project. We havea right to know the details of how andwhere our money is being spent. We don’tneed a report presented in vague, politicaljargon.

The Editor,Most people who oppose the upcom-
ing SkyTrain fare gates seem to havenot realized that part of the reason thatTransLink and the BC MOT want tointroduce fare gates is so that integrationwith the upcoming Compass transit farecard can be achieved.
The Compass Card and the datait obtains from its ability to track thebeginning and end points of all transittrips will spawn huge improvementsregion-wide in transit service optimiza-tion and cost-efficiency, and these arewhat is going to offset the capital andannual costs of the fare gates.
Without the fare gates, there wouldbe no way to figure out what trips occuron the SkyTrain and no way to optimizebased on those trips.
That would be counter-productive,
as SkyTrain is a part of so many transittrips in the region.
The Compass Card concept is thesame concept that has already beenintroduced on the transit system inMontreal, and is used worldwide in tran-sit systems.
For example, in Tokyo, a singlemoney-containing fare card will grantyou access to not just the local metro,JR commuter rail and local bus lines,but also vending machines if you wanta snack or a drink or whatever of themany unique items dispensed throughvending machines in Japan.
Once the Compass Card becomes apart of our transit system, everyone’sgoing to have a better experience ontransit here in Metro Vancouver.

The Editor,It was reported that there
are currently 50 millionempty condos and untoldnumbers of unfinished apart-ment buildings in China.
The situation suggestsChina will have some sig-nificant social and economic
problems to face.Of course, we in
Richmond can easily relateto this situation, albeit on asmaller scale. The continuingproliferation of apartmentblocks in our city core thatremain half-occupied pro-vides clear evidence that we
have been all too willing towalk down the same path andmake the same mistakes.
The important questionis whether or not we will beable to avoid the same inevi-table consequences.

This is why anincrease in stem cells under our skin may help tocreate a more youthful cell that would replenish

Parents, let your kids dig through thegarbage or rifle through the recycling allfor the sake of art and the environment.
The Community Arts Council ofRichmond presents the second annual Eco-Friendly Sculpture Challenge this Apriland now wants submissions until March10.
The challenge accepts modern sculp-tures by youth, ages 10 to 17, who haveused only recycled, re-purposed or re-usedmaterials.
“For kids to start paying attention to theenvironment now, hopefully speaks to whatwill happen in the future,” said MargaretStephens, treasurer and primary adminis-trator of the council. “Hopefully this raisesawareness. And when the kids start doingit, it encourages parents to do the same.”
Last year, the council accepted allentries, and Stephens hopes the same willhappen this year, space permitting. First,the submissions must go before a jury toensure quality and requirements are met.
“It teaches the kids what not to throwaway and it will hopefully encourage anartistic sense within them as well.”
The age range has expanded to include
16- and 17-year-olds, which separates thecontestants into three categories: junior (10to 12 years), intermediate (13 to 15) andsenior (16 and 17).
There will be cash prizes for winners ineach category, including a people’s choiceaward, voted in by viewers.
Last year’s winners included aSteampunk Rocket Car powered withLED lights and garage-door openers, anda Recycle-a-saurus sculpted out of paint
colour samples and an egg carton.Winners will display at City Hall and at
the Earth Day celebrations on April 20.There’s no entrance fee for the contest,
which is open to all youth living in orattending a Richmond school.
The display at Thompson CommunityCentre takes place on April 6 and April 7,winners to be announced at 4 p.m. For eli-gibility and submission requirements, visitwww.richmondartscouncil.org.

SportsRichmond soccer standout headed to YaleDefender Justine Do’s work on the field and in the classroom earns her lucrative deal to prestigious Ivy League school
Justine Do is a difference maker on thesoccer pitch but the Richmond teen’s ambi-tions go well beyond the sidelines.
“My dream is to be involved with medi-cine, working in a lab or in the field,” shesaid. “I want to find cures or do somethinglike Doctors Without Borders where I cantravel to villages and connect with peoplethrough soccer.”
A few minutes with this articulate Grade12 student at Hugh Boyd secondary studentand it’s easy to see why she is headed to oneof the most prestigious schools in the world.
Do has combined her soccer talent andexceptional work in the classroom to earn alucrative deal to attend Yale University. Sheis going to Connecticut in 2014 after talkswith the Ivy League school began nearly twoyears ago.
Yale women’s varsity head coachRudy Meredith became interested in Doafter watching her during a pre-event atSportstown for the annual Western CanadaSoccer Showcase. At the time, Do was amember of the provincial under-16 team.
“We weren’t even allowed to play in thetournament but (Showcase founder) CiaraMcCormack had arranged for a few us to goto Sportstown where a bunch of universitycoaches watched us play some indoor soc-cer,” recalled Do.
The NCAA recruiting process meantMeredith could only have a casual discussionwith Do’s mom since she was still in Grade10. However, a line of communication wasestablished as her soccer career continued toflourish. She helped the Richmond Red HotSelects complete a banner season by win-ning the provincial U16 championship, thenaccepted a spot in the Vancouver WhitecapsResidency program.
Do made an unofficial visit to Yale at thestart of her Grade 11 year and immediatelyfell in love with the New Haven campus.
“I had basically made up my mind thefirst half hour I was there,” she laughed. “Itwas just so inspiring seeing how everybodywas, not just the soccer team. They are all
there for the same purpose and that’s to behappy and successful at what they want do intheir life. I just loved the environment.
“The coaches are like a second fatheror an uncle to you. They have picked youto play for them not because you can scoregoals but genuinely because you are a goodperson that they want to develop as an ath-lete and a person.”
Do described herself as a “bench warmer”during the early years of her soccer careerbefore she began working with Clive Clarkeat the U13 level. Clarke made her realizeher potential on one of the most successfulteams ever to come out of the RichmondGirls Soccer Association. Do was slottedin at fullback where she became a dynamicplayer, often jumping into the play as anextra dimension to the team’s vaunted attackthat featured current U20 national teammember Summer Clarke.
“I can’t think of a coach who has beenmore of a influence,” said Do. “Clive is agood person, great coach and an even bettermentor. He not just helps you grow as a soc-cer player but emphasizes what it means tobe a true athlete and a person.
“It was so fun to play on that team. It’sweird how it ended up being only 12 of us(on the roster). Our chemistry off the fieldreflected in the way we played.”
Do would have liked to stay another yearwith the Red Hot Selects but she couldn’tsay no to the Whitecaps’ offer that coversall her training expenses. It meant a hugecommitment for herself, and her parents too,with nightly training sessions at least fourtimes a week up at Burnaby Mountain.
This season, she has a car pool buddyas Summer Clarke has now joined theResidency Program before she heads offto Louisiana State University on a full-ridescholarship. The pair also have their driver’slicenses, although their parents still mustcome for the ride.
“Summer and I are dangerous and adven-turous,” laughed Do of their skills behind thewheel. “We take our turns driving.”
Do will graduate in June and herWhitecaps season will conclude in earlyAugust. She then wants some time to catch
her breath before heading to Yale.“Coach Rudy is really supportive of my
decision and some don’t get to make thatchoice,” she said. “I would have been basi-cally going right from the Whitecaps to
school. I wanted some time to experiencemaybe working, traveling or volunteering.
“It’s so easy to get caught up in the futurebut I also stress to myself it’s so important toenjoy every moment you are going through.”

Big first half powers Palmer to 7th straight city championshipThe RC Palmer Griffins
will attempt to secure onefinal trip to Kamloops thisweek and they will be doingit as seven-time RichmondSenior Boys BasketballLeague champions.
The Griffins head tothe Lower Mainland AAChampionships at KingGeorge secondary inVancouver with plenty ofmomentum after securingtheir record-tying seventhstraight title. After finish-ing fourth in regular seasonplay, Palmer played its bestbasketball when it matteredthe most, producing threestraight wins last week,including a 91-81 vic-tory over the host BurnettBreakers in front of acapacity crowd last Friday.
“I am very proud ofthese boys,” commentedhead coach Paul Eberhardt.“Many people doubted usthat we would bounce backand win it again but theboys showed great heart andplayed incredible basketballwhen it counted most.”
The difference provedto be Palmer’s explosivefirst half as they managed37 points in the opening
quarter and took a com-manding 60-37 lead into theintermission. The Griffinswere lethal beyond the arc,hitting seven three-pointersin the first quarter alone.
“That was one of themost impressive halves Ihave seen a Palmer teamplay,” continued Eberhardt.“We had five different play-ers hit three-point shots.”
The Breakers showedwhy they lost just once inleague play by stormingback with a terrific thirdquarter, outscoring thedefending champs 24-8.However, they never couldget closer than seven pointsas Palmer always seemed tocome up with a key basketto slow the momentum.
Senior Jamie Madewanmade his final game inRichmond a memorable onewith a game-high 35 points.He also had 11 reboundsand eight assists.
Madewan, who cameoff the bench as a Grade10 to have a key role in theprovincial final two yearsearlier, was later named theRichmond League MVP.Antonio Jhuty added 30,while Justin Wong had 26for Burnett.
Palmer’s road to thefinal began with a 91-81win over the RichmondColts, then a 80-66 vic-tory against regular seasonchampion McMath. Burnettadvanced with wins overSteveston-London (74-44)and McRoberts (70-51).
The Griffins now turntheir attention to attempt-
ing to earn a spot in theprovincial “AA” tourna-ment which will be held inKamloops for the final timebefore the tourney shifts tothe Langley Events Centrein 2014.
Two berths will beon the line at the LowerMainland tourney with StThomas More, King Georgeand Notre Dame expectedto be the Griffins’ mainchallengers. McRoberts,MacNeill and Hugh Boydare also part of the eightteam tourney.
Meanwhile, the Breakersand McMath are shouldbe very much in the mixat the Lower Mainland“AAA” Championshipswith five B.C. berths on theline. Provincially ranked
Kitsilano, St. Georges andChurchill will be heav-ily favoured to earn threeof them but the other twospots are wide open.
As Richmond No. 1, theBreakers have been seededfourth and will host No. 5Churchill on Thursday at7:30 p.m. McMath openedplay yesterday againstTupper.
At the buzzer...The hard luck team of
this year’s city champion-ships proved to be theMcNair Marlins. In argu-ably the most competitivetournament in its near 20-year history, the Marlinssaw their season come toan end with a 73-70 loss toMcMath for the final LowerMainland “AAA” berth.
