Dinos win, eye hosting CW final four 2010-02-04 -
Curtis Taylor Gauntlet Sports
Volleyball - The Dinos men's volleyball team got back to their winning ways over the weekend, scoring a pair of victories over the University of Regina Cougars. After a mediocre showing last week against the University of British Columbia Thunderbirds, a match-up with the Cougars was just what the Dinos needed to get back on track. They were dominant over the weekend, taking six of seven sets from a pitiful Regina squad who remain winless on the season.
In the first game, the Dinos took the first set before seeing the Cougars take the second in dramatic fashion. The two teams went back and forth, with Regina eventually winning the set 30-28. Friday's second set was really the only sign of life Regina showed all weekend. The third set was a completely different story. The Dinos, winning convincingly by a score of 25-10, immediately halted any momentum their opponent might have gained. From there it was merely a formality, and they closed it out in four sets winning by a final score of 3-1 (25-20, 28-30, 25-10, 25-18). More...

I was honoured when asked to write some words about Jenny Vincent. I had only known Jenny for a few years but she without a doubt has made an impact on me. I first met Jenny three years ago when she came back to coach the Dinos club rugby team; the same team that Jenny had started at the university 10 years ago. With her return three years ago, not only did she bring a wealth of rugby knowledge and experience, but she brought a vision of what the team could be. She was determined to transition the club team into a University of Calgary varsity rugby team. While this goal seemed far away to us initially involved, with Jenny's passion and love of rugby we were able to bring her vision into reality in just two years. More...
