5A Champions

A huge congratulations to the Greenall Griffins Senior Girls volleyball team as they qualified for the 5A Provincial Championships this past weekend in Yorkton.  

 

It came down to a semifinal match against a very strong Yorkton team in which only the winner would advance to the "5A" Provincial Championships next weekend and the Griffins rose to the occasion and were able to win 25-15, 25-22 to advance to Provincials.  

 

In the gold medal match the girls were pretty emotionally and physically spent and lost two straight to strong Swift Current team, so congratulations to the Ardens, as both teams will advance to Provincials

 

Behind the scenes, this is quite an accomplishment as a first step on the road to getting a shot at a provincial championship gold medal .  Over the last few weeks the team was riddled with illnesses and injuries, and I wasn't sure what lineup we'd be able to put on the court, but they got on there and gutted  it out,  making the coaching staff very proud of them..

 

Next stop is this weekend in Weyburn at the Provincial 5A Championships which the Griffins will be gunning for the Gold .
