PACWEST Spotlight: Vitor Pereira
The PACWEST tournament MVP prepares for the CCAA national championship
It was a storybook ending at the PACWEST championship tournament for the Camosun Chargers men’s volleyball team. Down 2-0 heading into the third set in the gold medal match with the end of Charles Parkinson’s incredible career on the line the Chargers suddenly found new life. They would battle back to capture the third set to stay alive and then won the next two and claimed the PACWEST title in dramatic fashion.
One of the major reasons was veteran Vitor Pereira and his precision hitting and massive jump serve which assisted in the comeback victory. He was named the tournament MVP and will no doubt need to be on point for the Chargers to have success at the national championship.
The quest for a Canadian title opens on Friday as the Chargers travel to Quebec City and will face the Redeemer Royals, a wildcard team from the OCAA.
Before that however, Vitor speaks to Ryan Watters under the PACWEST Spotlight.
