Queen’s Men’s Volleyball are conference silver medalists after falling to the McMaster Marauders 3-2 (25-18, 22-25, 23-25, 25-12, 15-12) in a five-set instant classic in the OUA Forsyth Cup Championship Friday night in Hamilton, Ont.
After the Marauders took the first set, Queen’s fought back to take the next two to put McMaster on the ropes. But the Marauders would take the fourth set and edge the Gaels in a close fifth set for the victory and OUA Championship.
Erik Siksna (Markham, Ont.) had a strong performance for Queen’s, finishing with a team-high 13 kills while adding six digs.
Zig Licis (Louisville, CO) had 11 kills while Reed Venning (Courtice, Ont.) finished with nine kills and six digs.
Chris Zimmerman (Prince George, B.C.) recorded 35 assists for Queen’s in the championship game.
