Set 1 Keyano Huskies 25 Grande Prairie Regional College Wolves 20   (1-0)

Ranked No. 2 in the Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association polls, the host Keyano Huskies (8 matches won 24 sets won 4 sets lost prior to Friday night game) scrapped out a first set 25-20 set victory against the visiting Grande Prairie Regional College Wolves (2 matches won 8 matches lost 13 sets won 24 sets lost) at the Syncrude Sport & Wellness Centre's Canadian National Resources Ltd. Gymnasium.

Highlights included some big time BANGOS by 6-foot-4 Liam Matheson (5th year, Business Administration, Tauranga, New Zealand) and 6-foot-7 Don Campbell (2nd year, Aboriginal Studies, Beauval, Saskatchewan) along with a pancake dive by libero Joel Makara (5th year, University Studies, St. Andrews, Manitoba).

Set 2   Keyano Huskies 25 Grande Prairie Regional College Wolves 17 (2-0)

A Radoslaw Brzozowski (2nd year, Business, Wroclow, Poland) super spike followed by not a Jack, Queen or King but Ace...service ace that is....sparked the Huskies to an early 4-2 edge

Back-to-back miscommunication errors by the Huskies allowed the Wolves back into the set 11-11.

Huskies regained their composure and verbal communication to take a 22-17 lead with the Wolves' coach Mitch Schneider calling timeout.

Set 3   Keyano Huskies 25 Grande Prairie Regional College Wolves 11 (3-0)

With mascot King the Husky banging the large drum at the start of the set, the Huskies jumped out to a 6-2 lead before Wolves timeout.

Wolves made a run after winning their fifth point (5-11) on what was the best rally of the evening but net violations stymied any comeback the Huskies up 15-7 before a Wolves timeout to regroup.

Biggest Husky bench cheer came when Cameron Visscher (2nd year, Education, Coaldale, Alberta) came off the bench to score a kill 21-9.

Huskies would cruise to a 25-11 in what may have been one of the quickest matches of the early 2018-2019 Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference campaign.
