QUT Victorious Again!

October 7th, 2008

Once again, QUT Has dominated the Australian Uni Games, picking up Gold in the Men’s division one and division two competitions.

The QUT Women’s volleyball team was unlucky to miss out on the medals after an injury to star player Jordan Mowen during the week.  Nevertheless, the team played extremely well in the Bronze medal match, taking the University of Sydney to five sets despite starting as vicious underdogs.  Congratulations must go to the girls for how well they played in this and all their other matches.

The Men’s division two team met Monash in the gold medal match, playing some solid volleyball to take them out in three close sets.  QUT was beaten by Monash in four sets earlier in the tournament and were extremely proud to turn it around for a victory.

The Men’s division one team met a lacklustre Sydney University in the gold medal match, easily coming away with a 3-0 win.  Our first men’s team team dropped only a single set in the entire tournament, helped in no small part by some creative (illegal but funny) plays.

The Men’s division one win takes QUT to four championships in a row.  We’re really looking forward to next year where we’ve got high hopes of rounding out the five.
