The community should recognize what an impressive performance two of Brandon University's teams put in over the holidays.
The women's volleyball team captured a tournament title in Florida (!?) with victories over #3 Calgary and #4 Manitoba.
The men's basketball team won the Wesmen Classic in Winnipeg with a tournament final victory over #4 Calgary. This is a victory that could turn things around for a team that has struggled to compete so far this year.
When I was younger (80s/90s) the crowds at the BU gym for the men's basketball games were insane. I have often thought that the incredible level of talent brought in by Jerry Hemmings was matched by the dedication of those fans.
