CiTR -- Thunderbird Eye

We cover some postseason action as women's rugby went to Nationals and football had their playoff semifinal, as well as some season opening action from volleyball. Then, we have the first half of a two-part interview with UBC Golf coach Chris Macdonald!

Cory is here to solo report the news of this past week, as men's soccer and women's rowing won championships, their counterparts finished with silver, football clinched an unexpected playoff spot, and more! Then, we have an interview to share as Mike Liu sat down with men's rugby player Jacob Bossi.

It's championship season here at UBC as women's rugby and men's and women's cross country are both Canada West champions! Elsewhere, soccer has the chance to add to the banner total, hockey looks legit, football took a dive and basketball is now underway.

This week, soccer, women's rugby and women's field hockey all ended their regular seasons, with varying degrees of success. Also, hockey had a strong weekend, cross country took to the track again and football stole the show with a massive win.

We have a jam-packed show this week as we bring you some interview excerpts from women's soccer and men's hockey, to go along with recapping the hockey season openers, football getting their first win, soccer clashes with TWU, rugby dominance and more!

Breaking news: our very own Mike Liu is a trainer on the UBC Football team! In this episode we chat with him about what the experience of being part of the team has been like this season, after covering our other various Thunderbirds sports highlighted by the continued dominance of golf and women's soccer.

Results were all over the map for our Thunderbirds teams this past week, as golf, women's soccer and women's rugby remained perfect but football, men's soccer and men's rugby all faltered. Also, field hockey began their season.

We celebrate the return to campus for both our soccer and rugby teams! As well, we look at the season debuts for football and cross-country, while golf continues their strong start to the year.

Ahead of the UBC soccer home openers this weekend, Mike sat down with men's soccer standout Chris Lee to discuss his time in the CPL with Pacific FC, as well as his experience at UBC to this point. As well, we cover the latest action for our Thunderbirds golf and women's rugby teams, while multiple other sports played some exhibition matches against SFU.

Our UBC soccer teams began their Canada West seasons with the women's team finding more success, and the Thunderbirds golf teams crushed the competition at their first Cascade Conference tournament of 2021. As well, we brought former CiTR Sports member Nico Roselli back on the show to discuss his soon-to-be-published book!
