For the second time in three seasons, the Camosun Chargers are Pacific Western Athletic Association (PACWEST) bronze medalists after a come-from-behind victory over the home favourite, Douglas Royals.
The Chargers fell to the Royals 25-28 in the opening set, but powered back with three straight set wins (25-15, 25-23, 25-16) to earn the honours.
Rookie Edyn Van Brabant (Pacific Christian School / Victoria, B.C.) finished with 16 kills and two aces earning her Player of the Game for the Chargers. Erica Bolink (Pacific Christian School / Victoria, B.C.) added 11 points and the team collected 17 aces, including eight from fifth year Brook Ure. (Summerland Secondary / Summerland, B.C.).
This was the final game of the 2023-2024 volleyball season for the Chargers, as a loss in the quarter-finals on Friday eliminated their chance to compete at the national championship.
