Tonight, the Waterloo Warriors faced the York Lions on the road to conclude their doubleheader weekend. After a tough 3-1 loss in the first match yesterday, the Warriors battled hard but ultimately fell again, 3-1, to the Lions.

York opened the match with a strong start, dominating the first set 25-14. In the second set, Waterloo responded with increased energy but came up short in a tightly contested 27-25 finish that put York up 2-0.

The third set revealed the Warriors’ tenacity. In a gripping back-and-forth showdown, Waterloo fought for every point, eventually claiming the set 35-33 in a display of sheer resilience. Despite their momentum, York regained control in the fourth set, sealing the match with a 25-18 victory to end the weekend with a 3-1 win.

Waterloo’s offense was powered by Lucas Redmann (Winnipeg) and Daniel Nikashov (Vaughan), who capitalized on precise sets from Cohen Peters (Vancouver), who logged over 40 assists. Statistically, the Warriors held their own with competitive numbers in digs and kills.

Next, the Warriors will travel to Kingston, ON, to face RMC in back to back matches on Friday and Saturday.
