Loca SPORTS | SHSS senior boys the hosts ft w T with the most » — ‘News photo by Jonathan Green Stanley Humphries senior girls volleyball coach Carol Verigin offers some pointers during a match with L.V. Rogers at the NRS Invitational last weekend. The advice must have worked as the Rockettes du mped Rogers, but later lost in the semi-final to J.L Crowe of Trail. Wi Stanley Humphries senior boys capture title and Mt. Sentinel senior girls repeat as champions at NRS Invitational tourney Jonathan Green SPORTS REPORTER Stanley Humphries senior boys volleyball coach Don Lust must have a crystal ball that no one knows about. Heading into last weekend's annual Stanley Humphries-NRS Realty Invitiational Tourna- ment, Lust said his squad was looking to re- lieve defending champ Mt. Sentinel of the title. “We're out to bring it back home,” he said in a previous interview. And though the opportunity to take that ti- tle away from Mt. Sentinel never materialized, the Rockers were more than happy to dispose of Nelson’s L.V. Rogers in the final to capture the big prize. “My guys got themsleves up for the entire tournament and played really well,” Lust said Monday. The Rockers made easy work of their five op- ponents in the round-robin, sweeping all on their way to a date with Kelowna’s George E]- liot in the semi-final. Similar to their first meeting, Stanley Humphries took the broom to George Elliot 15- 6, 15-2 to earn a spot in the final against L.V. Rogers. Continuing in their winning ways, the boys took one more trip to the broom closet and made short work of their Nelson opponent in the final to take the title 15-10, 15-9. Although he chalked it up as a team victo- ry, Lust said past experience taught him to stick with his best six when the final rolled around. “When it comes down to finals, I don’t fool around,” he said. “I go with strength all the way.” Lust said he was impressed with the level of competition at the tournament, especially as teams had only been practising for less than a month. “Everybody played exceptionally well,” he said. “It was quite impressive for the first tour- nament of the year.” Over on the girls side, defending champ Mt. Sentinel shook off a sluggish performance in the round-robin to knock off Trail’s J.L Crowe to retain its title. Coach Joe Moreira said he’ll take the win, but he’s not thrilled about it. “I’m happy they won, they’re happy they won but we didn’t win in a particularly nice fashon,” he said. “Am I happy camper? Not par- ticularly, but it’s better to win ugly than to lose ugly.” Moreira said the Wildcats were plagued by inconsistency through the tournament, losing to both Crowe and L.V. Rogers in the round- robin. But they managed to turn things around somewhat in the semi-final, paying back Rogers to the tune of 15-11, 16-14. The stage was set for the rematch with Crowe, and Mt. Sentinel started off slowly by dropping the first game, 15-11. “In many ways (the score) flattered us,” Moreira said. “It could just as easily have been 15-6 or (15-7).” The Wildcats re-grouped after game one, and rallied to win the next two games 15-9 and 15-8 to successfully defend their crown. With a squad that’s ranked No. 1 in the province in girls AA volleyball, Moreira said the Wildcats are expected to win every game. And though that may rattle some teams, Moreira doesn't think his is one. “Being ranked No. 1 in the province carries with it a certain amount of pressure and ex- pectations everytime you hit the floor,” he said. “We'll get through it I think.” Tournament action resumes this weekend when the Wildcats host the Kootenay Volley- ball Classic for both junior boys and girls at Mt. Sentinel, and senior girls at Selkirk College. Need acar loan? Welll make it happen.
