CANADA WEST

Highly touted WolfPack talk hype train, aiming to get back on track after losses

Nov 21, 2024 | 6:30 PM

KAMLOOPS — Heads began to turn when the TRU WolfPack women’s volleyball team swept the Manitoba Bisons, who were ranked No. 1 in a Canada West pre-season coaches’ poll.

The WolfPack stayed perfect with two wins over the UBC Okanagan Heat of Kelowna and vaulted to fourth in the U Sports Top 10 rankings.

TRU’s women’s volleyball squad has never been ranked that high since joining the top level of Canadian university sports in 2005.

But the WolfPack hype-train momentum slowed this past weekend, with a pair of losses to the Fraser Valley Cascades (7-1) in Abbotsford.
