O TH S's chances for victory are bolstered by their leader, Patrick Dessaulles, who brings a wealth o f recent rugby experience into every game. Dessaulles, currently in his final semester at OTHS, earned a spot on the Canadian National U-19 rugby team that competed in the 2000 Fresh from the world junior cup, Patrick Dessaulles will try and help Oakville Trafalgar Red Devils to their 30th straight Halton title. Photo by Peter C. McCusker World Junior Cup in France last month. Tryouts and training with the team allowed Dessaulles to rack up the air miles. He went to Victoria for a week over the Christmas holi days, to Wales in February for a week of train ing before travelling to England in April for another week o f practice preceding the tourna ment in France. The team struggled from the get-go, losing to Wales 60-0 in an exhibition game in February. They didn't fair any better in the world champi onships, losing all four games they played. The experience, however, is something Dessaulles will never forget. "It was an incredible experience for me to get to be a part of that," said the versatile play er, who spends most o f his time at prop and occasionally sees time at flanker.
