MEN'S GOLD MEDAL GAME: #3 UFV vs #5 CAMOSUN
Chargers defend Championship title
It was a banner evening for the Camosun College Chargers who won gold and defended their BCCAA Provincial Championship title – on home court in front of a ecstatic home crowd!
Taking home silver tonight are the UFV Cascades – the team that Camosun defeated last year to earn the 2009 Championship which was hosted at Columbia Bible College in Abbotsford.
WOMEN'S GOLD MEDAL GAME: #1 UBCO vs #3 VIU
UBCO women claim gold
On paper, it looked almost like a carbon copy of last year’s BCCAA gold medal match where the UBC-Okanagan Heat swept the VIU Mariners in three for the title.
Despite a number of new faces making up these teams, UBCO prevailed victorious once again claiming Provincial gold and leaving VIU with silver.
A five point run early in the first set helped the Heat make a quick head start and the team pulled out the win 25-16. In the second, an early seven point run put the Heat ahead but the Mariners answered back racking up eight points following a well-called substitution. UBCO’s head coach Steve Manuel called a time out to change the momentum and the Heat pulled ahead to win 25-18. Leading all the way in the third, UBCO won the match 25-14 with a float serve that VIU failed to handle.
MEN'S BRONZE MEDAL GAME: #1 UBCO vs #2 VIU
Heat Ends Season with Bronze
Having been defeated in last night’s semi-final match against the home team Camosun College Chargers, the top seeded UBC-Okanagan Heat settled for bronze today, taking down the VIU Mariners 3-1.
The two teams met in the bronze at last year’s Championships with the Mariners taking it in five. Which made today’s win sweet revenge for the Heat who reversed the outcome for 2010.
WOMEN'S BRONZE MEDAL GAME: #2 CAPILANO vs #4 UFV
Lady Blues bring home bronze
It was history repeating itself as the 2010 BCCAA Volleyball Championship medal rounds went underway today with a schedule that mirrored the 2009 bronze and gold medal match line ups at the Championships last year hosted by the Columbia Bible Bearcats in Abbotsford.
Although the schedule was a repeat, the outcome for the first match of the day was not. Starting the day was the Women’s Bronze medal match with the Capilano Blues taking down the UFV Cascades in four sets (in last year’s match-up, it was UFV who took the bronze in three straight sets).
MEN'S SEMI-FINAL: #1 UBCO vs #5 Camosun
Chargers beat the Heat!!!
The 5th ranked Camosun College Chargers toppled the #1 UBC-Okanagan Heat tonight in three straight sets in Match #8 of the BCCAA Provincial Volleyball Championships hosted by Camosun College.
It was Camosun all the way as the Chargers unleashed a torrent of pent up power and skill including a game total of 51 digs upon their opponents.
In addition to commending his players for executing an excellent game, Chargers head coach Charles Parkinson gave the home crowd (many of whom sacrificed staying at home to watch the men’s Olympic hockey game to fill the Camsoun stands) a lot of credit.
