ing for the play-offs

Both Saints teams lost against
Kelowna's Okanagan . Even
though the Ladies finished off their
season with losses Coach Ben
Spiller says they played some of
their best volleyball of the year as
their season ended.

“Our last two weeks were the
best of the year, Okanagan is defi-
nitely the tallest, biggest team in the
Jeague and we are the smallest, they
‘are a far superior team. They were
hitting over all our blockers,” said
Spiller.

Saturday's matchr had the Saints
Ladies losing 2-15, 7-15 and 13-15.
During Sunday's series of
woinen were swept 4-15, 6-15 and
0-15 in their last game of the year.

Spiller said although his team
played well during the final game
they didn’t make a mark on the
scoresheet. “I didn't even notice the
score until the end of the game,”
said Spiller. He said during the
game he didn’t think they were
down that much, they were getting
their serves back, only they couldn't
get the next point.

As for the Selkirk Men’s team
they have until February 25, 26 to
prepare for their next—and most
