This week the Red Deer College Soccer teams will play a pair of games. The Kings and Queens Basketball teams will participate in several exhibition games. The RDC Queens Volleyball team will partake in a non-conference tournament and the Red Deer College Cross Country Running team will race in the Willamette Charles Bowles Cross Country Invitational in Oregon.

The RDC Queens Soccer team (2-4-0) will play the University of Alberta Augustana Vikings (4-3-0) in Camrose. This should be an exciting game as only one goal separated the two groups this past Sunday.

The sixth place Queens will look to gain some ground in the standings in their last six games.
