(The players) felt pretty comfortable because we'd won the previous three (fifth-set games). It wasn't strange territory for them. |
On match point we got a good pass, Michelle (Alblas) set the ball perfectly and Jen got this enormous kill. |
This is huge. In my recollection, no school in B.C. has hosted the nationals since we did it in 1986. That's probably because it's such an enormous undertaking. It's a pricey thing and I'm really pleased that the college stepped up and supported our team. But we have established our program as one of the top ones in Canada. They know the product that we put on the floor is going to be pretty decent. |
This year's team displayed a heck of a lot more heart and I'm pretty proud of them and what they did to get to that gold-medal match. |
