VBall X-Women at Huskey Cup
The X-Women volleyball team traveled to Halifax this past weekend to participate in the Huskey Cup. The X-Women began their 2008 season with a 3-0 win against the Dalhousie Tigers (25-22, 25-20, 25-19). Saturday saw the Blue & White drop 2 matches against Acadia 1-3 (14-25, 19-25, 25-12, 25-27) and SMU 0-3 (16-25, 23-25, 21-25). On Sunday, the X-Women finished the weekend with 3-0 loss to University of Moncton (22-25, 15-25, 16-25).
Although the X-Women only captured one win, the weekend was very positive for the very young X-Women who were lead by a dominant performance by rookie Katherine Ryan, who over the 4 matches accumulated 61 points. Megan McDonald was the second highest point getter with 27 points. Laura Machowski and Megan Pothier were consistent all weekend stabilizing the teams serve receive and defense while rookie Heather Isenor played like a veteran quarterbacking the team’s offence. The X-Women hit the road again October 17-19 as they compete in the UNB Invitational Tournament in Fredericton.
