Heat Down WolfPack In Five In Men’s Volleyball
The University of British Columbia Okanagan Heat played scrooge on Thursday night (Nov 26). The Heat sent the fans of the Thompson Rivers University WolfPack home without an early Christmas present.
The Heat downed the WolfPack 3-2 in Canada West men’s volleyball action on the Warner Rentals Court at the Tournament Capital Centre. The scores in the final TRU home match before the Christmas break were 18-25,27-25,22-25,25-22,15-10.
Both squads are 3-8 going into their final match before the break: Saturday night (Nov 28) at the “Furnace” in Kelowna.
“This was a short turnover for us for sure,” said Heat coach Greg Poitras about his team returning from a road swing to Brandon, having two short practices and then playing to victory in this match. “We showed some character in the second set. We grinded it out in that set. They pushed, we pushed and winning that set gave us some confidence.”
