Aurora Claim Silver and Bronze at Volleyball Tournament

Our men's volleyball team took second place and the ladies claimed third place at the Alberta Colleges Athletic League tournament held last weekend at Ambrose University College in Calgary.

The ladies won their bronze medals by defeating St. Mary's University College Lightning in five games. Sara Concha was named the games most valuable player (MVP). This is the second straight Bronze finish for our ladies. Team captains Katelyn Hutton (left) and Kimberly Luymes were named to the 2nd Team All Conference All Stars and are shown below holding their banner.







The men won silver losing to the Ambrose Lions in the gold medal match. The Lions were heavily favoured going into the finals having lost only one game during the regular season. This is the first ever silver medal for the men's volleyball program and comes a year after their first ever bronze medal. Team captain Kyle Harrison was named CUC's MVP of the game. Harrison was also named to the 2nd Team All Conference All Stars.

As is their custom, the men invited their opponents to join them in prayer at the end the gold medal games.
