Thunderwolves, under new head coach Hayden Nichol, have wins against Brandon and Providence College and are ready to hit the ground running when the regular season opens in a couple of weeks.
THUNDER BAY — The preseason has been all about trying to re-establish a winning culture around Lakehead’s women’s volleyball program.
Rookie coach Hayden Nichol, who came to the program after most recently coaching Alberta’s Keyano College Huskies, has led the Thunderwolves to impressive non-conference wins this fall over the likes of the Brandon Bobcats and Providence College, completing a weekend sweep of the Pilots on Sunday with a 3-1 triumph.
Nichol said it’s been a long 10 years or so since the program enjoyed any true success, adding it’ll be the team’s depth that helps them return along that path in 2023-24. This year’s Lakehead squad has 10 players in their third season or more, which is going to play a major factor in the on-court improvements she expects to see.
