Volleyball team
looking forward
to great season

THE VOLLEYBALL
season is now in full swing
at Capilano College. The
women’s team played a trio
of matches last weekend,
dropping the first two
against New Caledonia and
Cariboo and winning the
last against an aggressive
team from Selkirk College.

Capilano fell behind Selkirk
early, losing the first game and
struggling through the second. In
the second game, with the score
63 in Selkirk’s favor, and a
yellow card warning, Cap tock a
time-out to regroup. The time-out
proved effective as Cap started a
rally that saw the score tie 9-9 and
then continue to a Cap win, with
Naney Cripps spiking the game
winner.

The match was now tied at one
game each, and Capilano found
themselves down 10-2 in the third
before starting a scoring drive.
Cap’s Suzanne Wheatley started
the rally by serving three points,
aided by a good set and spike
routine orchestrated by Cripps
and Sabrina Signoelli. The serve
then see-sawed back and forth

Baker served an ace to tie the

score and Cripps followed’ by
spiking the next two points.
Selkirk regained the serve with the
score now 14-12 in Cap’s favor
but could not add to their total.
Wheatley then finished Selkirk off
with another good serve.

Capilano now led two games to
one, then Selkirk chalked up
another big lead on Capilano, on-
ly to have it erased by a
Pumped-up and confident Cap
team. The score was tied at I1
and Wheatley served three straight
points before the side Jost serve.
Selkirk called a time-out but Cap
regained the serve and Signoelli
spiked the match-winning point.

The Cap team has a solid core
of skilled players and it looks like
they may have a good season
ahead of them. Middle blocker
Cripps is a natural team leader
and has all the necessary skills.
Wheatley and Baker have excellent
serves and Signoelli’s spikes are
accurate and hard. Front line
blocking by Rachel Derkson and
Cripps resulted in several turn-
overs and points in this match and
Winnie Siu can be counted on to
handle opposing team’s serves.
