MOHAWK RECLAIMS OCAA MEN'S VOLLEYBALL GOLD

There will be no defending champion in OCAA Men's Volleyball this year, as the Mohawk Mountaineers have captured the provincial championship title in London.

In what was as display of high caliber volleyball, the Mohawk men’s team simply elevated their game to a new level on the back of OCAA Player of the Year, Jasmin Cull. The fourth year standout was absolutely dominant, posting an amazing 28 kills, one block and one ace in the 3-0 (25-16, 25-14, 25-18) championship match against the Algonquin Thunder.

An impressive tandem was formed this year as veteran setter, Peter Sniuolis and rookie libero Sean Lowe gelled to create one of the most reliable duos in Ontario volleyball. Sniuolis was again the mastermind behind the Mohawk operation, rarely missed his mark as he dished out precision sets that continuously keep his opposition off balance. Lowe was anything but a rookie as he continuously hit his mark, not only on serve receive, but on defense as well.

The Mohawk men will now be joined by the CCAA National Championship hosts, Humber Hawks, as the Ontario representatives at the CCAA National Championship from March 7-9.
