Sydney Boughton, along with her team WinMan Fire, defeated the #1 ranked Junior Bisons Gold to win the U15 Provincial Club Volleyball Championship at Sport Manitoba Sunday. Boughton was honoured to be named the tournament MVP.
The three-day tournament hosted 38 teams from across the province at four venues in Winnipeg – UofW, RRC, Dakota Field House, and Sport Manitoba.
WinMan Fire was ranked third entering the tournament. In the semi-finals, they defeated the #2 ranked Dynamo in three sets.
In the final, WinMan Fire faced a formidable Bison team. After a tough start, they rallied back from a 6-point deficit in the second set, winning it 25-23. They carried this momentum into the third set, clinching the championship with a 15-10 victory. Boughton and her teammates are now gearing up for the National Tournament in Edmonton on May 16-18.
