Aw, Jim, what did you have to go and give that away for?

Seriously, though, Waterloo not winning was a BIG disappointment.  The road
to the championship was paved with gold for the Warriors this year - the
CIAU structured the regionals in Waterloo's favour (again), the
#1 and #3 teams didn't make it to the final four, some of the best teams
in the country were suspended from the playoffs, Waterloo's Peter Savich
was the country's MVP, coach Don McCrae was coach of the year, the Halifax
fans were as sick as anyone of the Vikings, and of course the Band was
unchallenged again. 

But they screwed up. Victoria was not even a particularly good team this year - 
19-17 overall. (Waterloo wound up 30-7.)

Sigh is indeed the word.  At least the entire team returns next year, but
then a lot of schools are going to be improved next year.  We shall see
if Don McCrae can ever win the Really Big Game.
