Rettie, Willing and Able: Record Falls with Trent Sweep

Monday, February 1st, 2010

Trent University setter Ian Rettie reached a milestone Saturday as he surpassed the record for most career service aces. With 45 aces this season Rettie leads the league and with two matches remaining in the regular season he looks to add a few more to his total. The record of 121 aces was formerly held by Jazmin Cull of Mohawk College. Rettie currently has 123.

The Trent men's and women's volleyball teams had a Sudbury sweep as the downed both College Boreal and Cambrian College this past weekend. Trent made short work of Boreal on Friday night as both teams downed the competition 3-0. Ben Kinzett and Jen Lenis were standout for Trent.

Saturday saw the Trent women battle Cambrian for top spot in the division. Both teams are in the hunt for the top two spots in the east with Durham College. The top two gain direct entry into the provincial championship tournament later this month. Trent faltered in the first set but rallied to take the next three and win the match 3-1. Strong performances by Sarah Rettie and Jen Lenis helped secure the win.

The men's match was a much different story but the same ending as the women's match. After dominating Cambrian 25-10 in the first set Trent faltered in the next two sets to be down 2-1. Trent rallied in the fourth set and fifth sets to take the match and take first place overall in the division. Ben Cambridge was top scorer for Cambrian with 20 points. Trent middle blocker T.J. Rodin was top performer with 17 points.

Trent looks to continue their success against Seneca this Wednesday.
