Hawks host 3J Zones

Holy Cross Collegiate (HCC) was the host to the Junior A 3J girls Volleyball Zones this past weekend. After having a successful bid against other schools, HCC won the right to host the tournament, which was held on Nov. 9. 

“We didn’t win, but the girls had fun. It was the last games of the season, we went out there, gave it our best and had a good time,” said coach Jennifer Yersh. 

“We had a solid season. We won some, we lost some, but overall we improved greatly as a team. We had a number of girls playing volleyball for the first time, and they improved tremendously throughout.”

The girls gave 100 per cent at every game, working on development, learning a new system and having a good time, all things Yersh hopes they achieved throughout the season.  

Because of the inclement weather two teams were unable to attend the games. Of the four that competed, Trinity Christian came in first, Strathcona Tweedsmuir in second, Rundle College in third and HCC in fourth. It was a fun but tiring weekend for all, with back to back games occurring. The season is now done for another year.
