This weekend the T-Birds return to nationals, and despite missing the 2020 season due to the pandemic, the team will try to repeat as champions for the first time since 2003.
While we could look at the financial statistics or regulation differences when comparing different leagues like U Sports and the NCAA, an often-overlooked source are the student-athletes themselves
“We were really upset about it and everybody else I feel was the exact same way about not getting the final chance to see how we ranked against all those top teams.”
Meditation does not mean leaving your room — or even your bed — because it is an exercise that can be done almost anywhere and in various ways, with all of them providing benefits to your wellbeing.
A light breeze makes the thinner trees sway back and forth like a pendulum. On their branches, birds chirp rhythmically in organic fashion. The park is alive, but I am left out of the conversation.
For one thing, Zumba differs from other dance aerobic classes because the style of the class is different. Instead of following each precise movement, Zumba allows for flexibility, creativity and in my case comedy — because the class feels like a party.
Currently at large: the University of Manitoba's offense after getting thrashed by the UBC Thunderbirds at this year's Winter Classic in front of over 5,400 people.

Eli Pasquale, a legend in UVic basketball and a pain for T-Birds players throughout the early 1980s, passed away on November 4th after a battle with cancer. The Olympian helped grow the sport both on the island and throughout the country.
From my experience, yoga is especially helpful for reducing pain from tight muscles. Yoga positions can target back pain, a common occurrence for the typical college student as well as other areas that get tight from sitting in class or in the library all day long.
