St. Clair volleyball weekend preview
By Kenton Wolfe
The disappointing season of the St. Clair Saints men’s volleyball team will come to a close Feb. 10, when they play host to the Sheridan Bruins.
Despite winning just six of 17 games this season, the team improved greatly from their one-win season in 2011-12. Led by rookie Connor West from Lethbridge, Alta., the Saints have managed to upset two nationally top-ranked teams in Redeemer University College and Nipissing University. Tom Charbonneau and Travis Wigle have also had strong seasons for St. Clair.
The Bruins sit in fourth place with a record of 10-5. They are ranked sixth in Ontario.
The St. Clair Saints women’s volleyball team will also be looking to play spoiler against Sheridan. Led by Alee Brecka, the Saints have managed a record of 4-13. The 8-7 Bruins are playing for home-court advantage.
Students and fans present for the Sunday matches will be treated to free admission, free appetizers and a cash bar. The game will be sponsored by the St. Clair Alumni Association and all alumni will have the chance to win a 51-inch TV.
