Bio

The Gutter RDP Athlete of the Week for February 5, 2024

Tom Wass and the Kings Volleyball team clashed with the Briercrest College Clippers this weekend for the first time since the teams faced off in the ACAC Championship Final just under a year ago where the Clippers walked away with a four-set victory. On Friday night, the Kings came up short in their avenge attempt as they fell in four sets yet again. Wass ran an efficient offence as he finished with 41 assists in the loss which is his second-highest total this season with 51 being his season high. The Australian also had four kills and six digs in the loss.

But on Saturday afternoon, Wass and the Kings were finally able to get their revenge as they defeated the Clippers in straight sets which moved RDP closer to clinching the top spot in the South Division. The fourth-year setter had 36 assists in the win to finish the weekend averaging over 10 assists per set which is well over his season average of 7.94. The team finished with a 42 per cent kill efficiency on Saturday which was 17 points higher than their percentage on Friday.

The fourth-year student-athlete holds the all-time RDP Kings Volleyball record for assists. After this weekend, Wass has a total of 2,693 assists which puts him second all-time in the ACAC. The Australian is 606 away from tying the conference record. Wass and the Kings will be on the road for the remainder of the season with their lone match this week taking place in Camrose as they battle with the University of Alberta-Augustana Vikings at 8 pm on Saturday.

Congratulations Tom and keep running an efficient offence!
