The Brandon University Bobcats’ dazzling run to the men’s volleyball conference final now includes a feat never accomplished before.
For the first time since Canada West merged with the Great Plains Athletic Conference in 2000, one school is home to all four major conference award winners. Robin Baghdady was named rookie of the year on Tuesday, while Seth Friesen won the student-athlete community service award and Grant Wilson earned his second coach-of-the-year nod.
The announcement was headlined by third-year right side Elliott Viles, who was named player of the year.
“It’s a phenomenal achievement,” Wilson said.
