Now that the University of Calgary Dinos have finished another season, it is time to reflect on the ups and downs of the nine teams that were in action over the winter semester — Pokémon themed, of course.

Rank: First in CW
The University of Calgary women’s Dinos hockey team capped off the 2011-12 season with their first ever cis championship by defeating the Montreal Carabins 5-1 in the CIS women’s hockey final in Edmonton. It was the first title in the program’s history. The team ended the season with an impressive 7-0 playoffs and sweeping their rivals the University of Alberta Pandas in the Canada West final. The CIS championship MVP went to Dinos third-year goaltender Amanda Tapp.
Hayley Wickenheiser won U of C’s female athlete of the year.

Fun fact: Generally, a Charizard will be competitive. It loves to battle and spends a great amount of time training or looking for opponents.
