North Star Wolves sr. girls head volleyball coach was thrilled with the outcome of their
OFSAA AA tournament this week. "Our tournament was absolutely fantastic." said Jeff Miller.
The #4 Wolves went 6-1 knocking off #5 Sir Winston Churchill in the quarterfinals before losing to top-seeded Beatrice-Desloges of Orleans, Ontario 3-0.
"We obviously did not get the result we wanted in the semi final but they were the best team in the tournament and eventual Gold medalists." said Miller.
North Star faced #3 London Oakridge in the bronze medal match losing the first set before winning three straight to claim 3rd overall in the tournament.
"We finished the season 28-3 while Lauren Essenpreis finished off the season and the bronze medal match with a bomb for her 34th kill of the match," said Miller whose team battled through injuries this season and still came away with a provincial medal. "The season was challenging from the start as we had to navigate many changes. We've had to adapt all year and find a way to succeed with what we had. It seemed to help us in the long run as we were able to play a much better team game than our opponents."
