The University of Winnipeg and Volleyball Canada are pleased to announce that women’s volleyball player Tesca Andrew-Wasylik has been selected to the National Women’s Volleyball Team. The selection was made at the conclusion of the three day selection camp held this past week in Winnipeg.
Members of the team will now train together for a one month period. In late June the A team will officially be selected and the B team will return to their hometowns. The A squad will then continue training and compete in some exhibition matches against Team Argentina in Winnipeg from July 7-10. Both Team Canada and Team Argentina will be preparing for the Pan Am Cup in Mexico, a qualification event for the 2013 World Grand Prix.
The 5’7 libero recently completed her fifth year and was named the Canada West Women’s Volleyball Libero of the Year. The Unionville, Ontario product was a starter in every match for the Wesmen, averaging 4.11 digs per set and 308 in total. This placed her second in the conference in this category. Her stellar play helped the team finish second in team digs during the regular season.
"This is exceptional for Tesca. Such an amazing athlete who has worked so hard to become the best she can be. After such a stellar season with our team this is an outstanding reward, we are all proud of her”, said Wesmen head coach Diane Scott.
