The MAC 16u Boys volleyball team competed in the Provincial Cup on Saturday, November 28th at Bill Crothers Secondary School in Markham.
The boys began the day facing the #1 seed Ottawa Fusion Red. In their first match as a team, the boys were victorious 2-1 with LS Pawel Jedrzejewski (Cathedral High School) contributing a team high 12 kills.
Next, MAC faced Durham Attack, unfortunately for MAC, they were defeated 2-0 in a hard fought battle with LS Mark MacFarlane (Ancaster HS) picking up 6 kills.
In the final game of pool play, MAC faced Riverside Rage. With inconsistent passing and serving, MAC was defeated 2-1. RS Daniel Madarasz (ACMT) led the way with 6 kills.
MAC would finish 3rd in their pool and play the Ottawa Mavericks. Despite coming out firing and playing some of their best volleyball of the day, MAC was defeated 2-0 and would settle for the consolation side of the draw. 3 solo blocks from M Eric Bonnay (Cardinal Newman) would highlight the MAC defence.
In their final game of the day, MAC would face the Colts. After winning the first set easily, MAC was put under pressure with some consistent serving from the Colts and would lose the second set. In the final frame, MAC would rally from 14-11 to win the deciding set 16-14 at the hands of some pressure serving at the end of the match by S Zdravko Ivankovic (Abby Park High School).
MAC would finish the tournament 6th. Overall, the tournament should be looked upon as a success, the boys now have OVA experience and will look to build upon it in the coming months before their next tournament.
