        The Â鶹ÊÓƵeast Vipers 18U team attended their second Sask Cup in Saskatoon on Saturday, March 7, and Sunday, March 8.
               On Saturday the team struggled against Loreburn Impact and Tisdale Xtreme Kaos, but were able to defeat the Montmartre Volleyball Club in a revenge match from the last Sask Cup.
               This put the Vipers into third in their pool and set them up to face QCVC Royal 17U, a team the Vipers had earned a win over last Sask Cup. The Royal came out playing hard and were able to edge the Vipers out in the crossover match.
               The next day, however, the girls played some of their best volleyball as they came out determined in the first match against the Saskatoon Connex Volleyball Club 17U. Following this they met the Martinsville 18U team where they took another win.
               Still playing well the girls went into a playoff match against the Macklin Vipers 18U team. This match went to three sets and the girls never backed down as they continued to play their hardest.
               They went undefeated on the Sunday earning their way to the Division 2 Tier 3 gold medal match against the Prince Albert Toppers 18U team. The girls played hard, but despite tough fights and long rallies they were unable to overtake the Prince Albert team.
               This left the Vipers 18U team to earn silver in Division 2 Tier 3 amongst 27 teams.
               Overall it was a great weekend with the girls playing some of their best volleyball of the year on the Sunday. Next action for the 18U will be in Saskatoon for Sask Cup 3 on the weekend of March 21, while the Vipers 15U team will compete in Oxbow on Saturday, March 14.
