Waterhouse, Walter make rousing returns to Kamloops nearly one year after tragic motor-vehicle collision
KAMLOOPS — Two members of the TRU WolfPack family made emotional returns to the Tournament Capital Centre on Friday (Nov. 1).
Owen Waterhouse, a WolfPack men’s volleyball player who suffered a brain injury during a motor-vehicle collision last November near TRU, launched the ceremonial first serve prior to a Canada West tilt that featured TRU and the visiting UBC Okanagan Heat of Kelowna.
The capacity crowd greeted the serve with a standing ovation.
After UBC Okanagan downed TRU 3-1, the first-ever Owyn McInnis Memorial Men’s Volleyball Award was handed to WolfPack outside hitter Sam Flowerday.
