WVB | Wesmen on a roll again after mauling MacEwan

EDMONTON — The Winnipeg Wesmen turned MacEwan's School Day into an afternoon recess. 

The Wesmen women's volleyball team won for the third time in five matches by quickly dispatching the MacEwan Griffins 3-0 (25-22, 25-10, 25-14) in a Canada West conference match on Friday afternoon. 

The Griffins hosted their a School Day match with a number of schools brought in to take in the showdown, but the Wesmen put on the lesson, holding MacEwan to .024 attacking for the day as they improved to 3-4 on the season. 

The Wesmen hit .300 and were led by Selva Planincic's 12 kills. Grace Vallis notched nine kills on 15 swings with just one error and Brooke Duncalfe had eight kills and hit .357 for the match. 

Winnipeg had a handful of key runs to turn sets in its favour: The Wesmen ran off four straight in the first set to take a 12-11 deficit and turn it into a 15-12 lead. In Set 2, the Wesmen built an early five-point lead and then, holding an 11-6 lead, tore off 11 straight points with Duncalfe on the service line. In Set 3, it was a five-point run followed by a four-point string that gave the Wesmen an early 12-7 edge and the Griffins never got close after that.

MacEwan fell to 0-7 while the Wesmen snuck into a three-way tie for seventh with Saskatchewan and Manitoba. 

Taylor Cangemi had a match-high 17 digs for the Wesmen, the third-highest in a three-set match in the Canada West this season, and a Wesmen season-high. 

Arden Butler led the Griffins with eight kills, and Madison Hoppus had a team-high 10 digs.
