Women’s team defeats Japan 18-6 in the play-in to advance to the quarterfinals at the FIBA 3x3 World Cup! They had 5 fouls with 5:30 to go, but managed to clean it up by not picking up any more throughout the rest of the game. Japan was 12/13 on FT’s heading into this game, so that was huge. Grant-Allen and Brown had big games for us, Crozon struggled with all of her points coming on layups and easy baskets but that’s been the story for the entire tournament. Hope we clean up on the turnovers for our game against Spain, other keys are them not getting gassed out (like in the other games besides this out) and letting the other team going on a run.

Yeah, struggling against a Canada B-team with two 5 set wins is a bad sign if you’re Italy.

Sade McCreath ties the NR in the women’s 100m with a 10.95 clocking at the Bob Vigars Classic

Surprised it hasn’t been mentioned yet, but Sade McCreath continues her brilliant season with a 10.95 clocking in the women’s 100m at the Bob Vigars Classic, tying the NR set by Leduc last year! Jacqueline Madogo was 4th in 11.13, Emily Martin was 5th in a new PB of 11.18 and Marie-Eloise Leclair was 6th in a new PB of 11.27. In the men’s 100m, Eliezer Adjibi ran a PB of 10.02 to finish 2nd. Dianna Proctor also won the women’s 400m with a time of 51.30, new PB! Zoe Sherar was 2nd, also in a time of 51.30. Favour Okpali was 3rd in 52.10, I believe a PB. Overall a really solid meet.

blew a 13-9 lead in the 5th set to Why am I not surprised

2 blocks in a row for Smrek

As long as we don’t get relegated, I’ll be fine with anything.

Favour Ofili joins the list of athletes switching allegiance to is gonna have a stacked athletics team come LA 2028…

Jaydon Hibbert will also join them (and a fourth yet to be revealed)

Two new teams in the SCF next year, please (and not the Leafs, Knights, Sens, Flames or Bruins)

Embarrassing. I don’t care if we don’t have KVR, Gray, or Brie, we should still be winning

I mean to be fair, neither team was favoured in their matchup (even with Gray out, maybe the men’s team could’ve performed better but still...)

I love volleyball (and I might still watch a few games anyways), but I just don’t know how worth it is to invest my energy into this. Most teams are fielding C teams

I wish we got this week
