Cougars Athletics

This weekend saw the Cougars volleyball teams in action at home Friday and Saturday, while the women’s hockey team was away on the road to International Falls, MN where they played Rainy River Community College Saturday and Sunday.

The last day of Assiniboine Community College’s $30K in 30 Days alumni giving campaign came to a close November 15, National Philanthropy Day. The Alumni Association hosted a ‘thank you’ event on Wednesday where campaign Co-Chairs thanked donors for their contributions, which helped surpass the target with $31,082 raised for student scholarships, awards and bursaries.

It was a busy weekend for the Cougars, with the opening of regular season league for volleyball in the Manitoba Colleges Athletic Association. The men’s and women's volleyball teams travelled to Winnipeg Friday to take on the Canadian Mennonite University Blazers.

After sweeping the University of Wisconsin Eau Claire last weekend 5-1 in both Saturday and Sundays’ games, the Assiniboine Cougars women’s hockey team is eager to again play on home ice this weekend.
