To celebrate their home-openers, the Winnipeg Wesmen kicked everyone out early.
The Wesmen women's volleyball team needed barely 70 minutes to finish off the Mount Royal Cougars Saturday afternoon, picking up a 3-0 (25-16, 25-18, 25-16) Canada West conference victory at the Duckworth Centre.
Winnipeg improved to 3-0 on the season with little time wasted in their first conference match at home, holding MRU (0-3) to .109 attacking while piling up 15 more kills and 15 more digs than the visitors.

Brooke Duncalfe and
Grace Vallis both had 10 kills to lead the Wesmen, and right side
