Hard work equals strong play for women's volleyball

Starting out the season completely rebuilding and with only three returning girls, the team knew that they had a lot of work ahead of them, and they have done just that, winning two games at the late October Humber Tournament and placing in third.

The women started off the tournament slow and sloppy, letting a lot of balls hit the ground and just not playing with the intensity that the team is known for.

"We started off slower than we normally do and weren't looking that good off the start, but after we talked to each other and rallied each other up, we came back strong and won the game," said player Stephanie Bignell.

The women are showing that this year they have heart, they want to win a lot and almost nothing will stop them from winning the whole thing this year. The team got a good look at the competition for the year at the tournament and know they aren't at the level they need to be to beat some of these teams, but with hard work and practice it will be a achievable goal.
