Laval Rouge et Or vs. UNB Varsity Reds


The very first match of the 2011 CIS National Championships featured Laval
against the University of New Brunswick. These two teams, both being from the
Eastern side of Ontario, had met multiple times through the year. Laval, regularly
ranked first nationwide, came in as the heavy favourite against a team that
generally hung around 10th ranked in the country. However, recently crowned
CIS Coach of the Year Dan McMorran and his boys had other thoughts on their
minds.

Full breakdown and results after the jump:

Update: Western Mustangs' Bus Catches on Fire

The bus on fire. Photo: Sean McKay - A Western Mustangs Men's Volleyball Player.Well if you follow Ontario volleyball even remotely, you have surely heard by now that the University of Western Ontario's team bus caught on fire Sunday evening.  As we wrote before, the bus caught fire on way back from the Mustangs' games against the University of Toronto.  When we wrote that post, we didn't know much so we have decided to ask around and write a follow up.

We spoke with UWO Mustang's men's volleyball right side player, Mathieu Poulin to find out what happened on the bus.  Poulin told us that none of the team members on the bus thought it was a big deal at first.
