The Duchess Park Condors know they’ll have targets painted on the backs of their volleyball jerseys this week in Victoria.One year ago in the provincial capital the Condors claimed their first double-A boys B.C. banner since 1999 when they knocked off Langley Christian in a four-set final and on Wednesday they’ll begin defence of that title ranked No. 1 on a list of 16 tournament contenders.
Weaver’s son Jeremy plays outside hitter and is one of six Grade 12 students on the team. He’s one of three starters from the Condors’ 2021 provincial championship team, along with middle blocker Esme Long and outside hitter Isaak Lank, the MVP of the zone tournament. “We work well on passing, serving and defence, as a smaller team,” said Weaver. “We’ve got one guy with some size and then everyone else is pretty short. Esme, for an undersized middle, he’s probably one of the top offensive guys, he’s just so fast that he’s pretty hard to block and defend against.”
“The top four or five teams at provincial are all very strong, basically it’s whoever shows up that day,” said coach Weaver. Ranked seventh out of 16, Cedars will be in action on Thursday at 11:30 a.m., 3 and 5 p.m. The 16th-ranked Falcons have opening-day matches at 11:30 a.m., 1:50 and 5:20 p.m.
