Silver medalists grace the podium in BC By Ryan Rogers Sports Editor November 21, 2007 The Lancers men’s cross country team carried on their tradition of success at the CIS National Championships earlier this month, returning with a silver medal led by the individual achievements of Andrew Coates.
Coates finished fifth overall and secured himself a berth into the FISU Championships to be held in France next April. Three Lancers finished in the top 10, securing a second-place finish. The Lancers women’s cross country team finished very strong with a hard-fought fourth-place finish, just missing the podium. >> | Lancers set to travel the 401 in style By Ryan Rogers Sports Editor November 21, 2007 If you’re traveling along the 401 over the holidays and happen to spot a handsome looking coach with your favourite varsity athletes posted all over it, then you’re seeing the newly refurbished and colorfully catchy Lancers bus.
This new look is a major step up from the simple logos that had been in use just a few months ago.
Said Marketing Manager for Athletics and Recreational Services, Eric Vandenbroucke, “(Athletics Director) Gord (Grace) and I had seen it done with other sports teams when they travel, and we thought it would be a neat idea to brand our university and sports team.” >>  |

| | Students profit from new Lancers marketing By Ryan Rogers Sports Editor November 21, 2007 The University of Windsor Lancers are looking to the student body to fill newly created intern positions which are designed to give the Lancers a promotional shot in the arm for each game.
The Lancers are looking to hire an intern for each of their varsity teams in the future, but for now are piloting their efforts towards just their major Winter Semester sports, in basketball, volleyball, hockey and track and field.
Marketing Manager for the Department of Athletics and Recreational Services, Eric Vandenbroucke, said “Our goal is to have these students in place who will be looking directly after one team or sport, for them to bring ideas for promotional plans to us on ways to market these teams.” >> |
