The men’s volleyball team isn’t afraid of the competition that the B.C. conference will bring to the national championships in March.

“If I base it on the experience that we just had with B.C. over the holidays, everybody is so close, it’s going to come down to who shows up that day and is prepared to do whatever it takes to win,” said coach Wayne Wilkins.

Greg Poitras is the men’s volleyball convener for the British Columbia Colleges Athletic Association and is responsible for tracking the provincial standings.

He said it could be anybody’s game at provincials.

“Capilano College has a couple of powerhouses on their team,” Poitras said.

“The team has a very solid seven players. That’s why they are at the top of our league right now.”

University College of the Fraser Valley and Malaspina University College are tied in second, University of British Columbia Okanagan come in third and College of the Rockies rank fourth.
“We’ve got twelve new players and two returning players so it’s a completely different team this year,” said Capilano coach James Sneddon.

“When we play together as a group and we celebrate our victories and forget about our errors, we’re a really tough team to stop.”

Humber played matches against UBC Okanagan and College of the Rockies in a tournament over the holidays. and both mathces were close games with Humber coming out on the losing end.
