Avs Run out of Gas

Four matches in four days for the Avs and the boys just ran out of gas.  The Douglas Royals swept the Avs 3-0 in match two of a back to back series.  Playing on fumes, the Avs gave little resitence as the Royals handed COTR their third straight loss, and after a promising five set win to open up their season.

Douglas College had a solid performance today, taking the match 25-14, 25-8 and 25-19.  Top Royals were Kristian Currie with 12 offensive points (11 kills, 1 block) and 1 dig.  Matt Santema added 11 offenive points (11 kills) and 4 digs while Nick Lightfoot tallied 10 offensive points (5 kills, 2 blocks, 3 aces) and 1 dig.  The Avs looked tired. Top performer was Patrik Toze with 13 offensive points (10 killls, 1 block, 2 aces) and 1 dig.

Both teams are back in action next week as the Avs host CBC while the Royals travel to Victoria to take on the reigning National Champions, Camosun Chargers.
