The Storyline

No. 4 Humber women's volleyball will begin its national title quest on March 25 in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island. The Hawks will open the final eight-team tournament against the host squad No. 7 Holland Hurricanes (13-1, 1st ACAA) in the quarter-final round. First serve is set for 5 p.m. ET.

Last Time Out

The Hawks captured the program's 16th provincial title, defeating the Mohawk Mountaineers in straight sets. All-Canadian Keyome Ellis was named the championship MVP, while Alex Bartmann and Aleks Steins were named to the all-tournament team.

Scouting Holland
  • The Hurricanes fell to MSVU in the ACAA semifinal round.
  • Ava Beisal and Sam Gerbig were named to the all-conference team.
  • Holland has never finished on the CCAA podium.
  • Lateia Barenaba led the conference averaging 0.65 blocks per set.
  • The Hawks beat Holland in their only meeting, winning the bronze semifinal in 2016.
Opening Round Jitters

Humber is 4-12 (.250) all-time in the CCAA quarter-final round.

Atlantic Dominance

Nostalgic
