Women's Volleyball Huskies complete weekend sweep of Ooks

The Keyano Huskies Women's Volleyball team completed their weekend sweep of the NAIT Ooks at the Syncrude Sport and Wellness Centre Saturday in Fort McMurray, rolling to a straight-sets victory (25-18, 25-22, 25-20).

After Friday's straight-sets result, the Ooks came out strong in the first set, going back-and-forth with the Huskies throughout the game's three sets though they'd eventually fall each time. 

"It felt so amazing, I'm so proud of everyone," Tyneille Neufeld said. "We didn't come out as strong as we did yesterday. We just had to battle back and play our game and make sure we're staying aggressive and not falling into the trap." 

Neufeld led her side with 15 kills, adding five digs. Jamie Ferns stepped up for the Huskies with eight kills and a pair of digs. Lauren Huntley collected a team-leading nine digs while adding six kills, one ace, and one block. 

Rebecca Maxwell 33 assists were complemented by four kills and six digs as well as one ace. 

Charlotte Vandenelzen led the visiting side with 10 kills while Anika Dyck had six kills to go along with a team-leading 12 digs and three aces. Kate Krogen had 11 assists in the match to lead her side. 

Chaljang Both and Neufeld were named as the Players of the Game for their respective sides.
