Senior boys host home tourney

In their first home action of the year, the Comp Eagles senior boys' volleyball team finished second in their tournament hosted in Weyburn over the weekend.

There were a total of 13 teams at the tournament, which ran Friday and Saturday at the Comprehensive School.

The Eagles senior boys had a strong showing at the event, finishing first out of their pool and then defeating Lumsden in three games in the semi-finals.

In the finals for their pool, however, the Eagles lost two straight games to Balgonie to finish second. They nearly won their second game as they were leading Balgonie by several points, but their opponents staged a comeback and won 26-24.

Despite losing their momentum in the finals, coach Terry Biss said, "I was very happy with the progress of the team to this point."

The junior boys team was also entered in the tournament, and finished fifth in the second pool of the event.

This Sept. 20-21 weekend, the senior boys team is off to Estevan, while the junior boys travel to Rouleau.
