QUOTABLE
Ryan Hofer – TWU Head Coach
“We are learning lessons every time we step on the floor. We’re learning what it takes to play Canada West volleyball. This is a tough league. Nothing is given to us and we are learning how to earn points and how to prevent our opponents from getting points. It’s going to be one match at a time and we’re going to have lots of learning.”

TWU will play Calgary Sunday at 10 a.m. in the Spartans final game of the WolfPack Invitational.
