Women’s Volleyball
The UNB Varsity Reds and Alberta Pandas are once again the teams to beat in U SPORTS men’s and women’s hockey.

In women’s hockey, Alberta (13-4-3) jumped back in to top spot following back-to-back 2-0 and 5-0 shutouts in a home-and-home series against Calgary. The Pandas visit Regina this weekend for a two-game set.
