PETERBOROUGH – Three Humber players joined the province’s best volleyballers at the OCAA All-Star games last Saturday.

Landis Doyle, Michelle Overzet and Paul Kemboi, along with women’s head coach Chris Wilkins, made the trip to Fleming College, for the annual event.

“We had a very long season and to be one of those top athletes in the province means a lot,” Kemboi said. “I’m proud of myself, proud of the team as well, because I couldn’t have done it without the team.”

Wilkins said the game was special for the players.

“It’s an opportunity to play with some of the best in Ontario and to meet some new friends and some other people that share the same passion,” Wilkins said.

For the OCAA champion women, it was a chance to mend fences.

“We go out representing Humber and I know some teams dislike us and hopefully after meeting us as people they sort of see it from our point of view,” said Doyle, the player of the game.

The all-star selection was long overdue for Overzet, her coach said.

“I know Landis got a lot of recognition this year but it was really nice to see Michelle get the same recognition, especially the way she finished the year,” Wilkins said.

Overzet had a game high 17 points, including 14 kills, as her West Division all stars beat the East three sets to two.

The East came out on top in the men’s game, 2-1.
