Men's Volleyball Post Three CIS All-Stars

Feb. 28 - The Bison Men's Volleyball team continued to reap rewards yesterday as three players earned CIS recognition.

Setter Mike Munday led the way with a First Team All-Canadian award after being named to the second team last season. Munday took a leadership role this year after the loss of CIS Player of the Year, Bryan Enns, and Canadian National Team member, Dan Lewis. Munday served up an incredible 28 aces in league play and 52 overall and is looking to bring home his second consecutive CIS title and third consecutive for the Bisons.

Middle blocker Peter Turpin stuffed his way onto the Second Team All-Canadian squad. Turpin added 102 blocks to his career Bison total of 610 (11th all time in Bison history) and also led the league with a kill efficiency of 42.2%. Turpin combined with Dave Teixeira and Munday for 184 blocks on the season.

Bison rookie Josh Klassen was named to the CIS All-Rookie Team. Klassen who stands just 6'2'' placed third on a deep Bison squad with 146 kills which was good for 12th in the league at 2.28 per game. Klassen won a Bronze Medal with the Manitoba Summer Games team last summer and is looking to help the Bisons to another CIS title.
