Unbeaten, Back to Back Champions11.08.04

Following the same dominating pattern that they used all year the Junior Boys Volleyball team successfully defended their KASSAA championship with a 3 - 1 win over the Sydenham Golden Eagles. An enthusiastic Garnet and Gold cheering section witnessed the Panthers jump out to commanding lead in the first, third and fourth sets of the match. Only poor serving from RND and some timely hitting from a tall and talented group of Golden Eagles kept the eventual outcome in doubt for a brief period. Dustin Garrett's and A.J. Conway's digging, Daniel McBride's setting and the hitting of Joe O'Neill, Mike Walsh and Derek Wilson acted to secure an unbeaten KASSAA campaign and a second start championship for RND.
With a very busy week of continued RND success ahead, please keep checking back over the next week for a more complete game report, action pictures and a championship movie from RND's first conquest at Bartlett so far this year.
Congratulations Panthers !!!

Junior Volleyball Headed to Bartlett 11.04.04
Winning a Championship is difficult, but defending a title is an even bigger task. The Junior Boys Volleyball team will attempt the rare feat after securing a 3 - 0 KASSAA semi-final victory over the Loyalist Lancers. The Panthers remain undefeated in the new gym and will attempt to take their experience in "the big house" to Queen's University and the Bartlett Gym on Monday evening for the KASSAA championship.
Check back to the RND Scoreboard for more details and preparation for parents and fans on the road to Bartlett.
Junior Boys Volleyball Quarter-Final: The Junior Boys played very well winning 3-0.  Well Done.  Come out to support the Panthers on Thursday.
Tournament Win is Preparation for the Playoffs 10.31.04
In the playoff semi-finals RND defeated Arnprior 2 games to 0 while Holy Cross defeated Bayrdige 2-0.  In the finals Regiopolis played some of their finest volleyball of the season to defeat their cross town Catholic rivals 2- 0.  The boys dominated the first set to win 25- 9 and held on to win the 2nd set 25-19.  Joseph O' Neill had a particularly strong tournament hitting the ball while Derek Wilson and Daniel McBride continue to lead the way. Congratulations on the tournament win boys!    Ernestown will now be the focus of attention as the first ever playoff games in the new gym will be Tuesday Nov. 2nd.  Go Panthers.
RND Close Out the Regular Season with a Win 10.26.04
The Junior boys wrapped up the regular season with a 3-1 victory (25-13, 25-16, 17-25, 25-15) over LCVI.  Derek Wilson led the way with 11 service points and Mike Walsh had 10 kills for the victors.  The boys are hosting a tournament this weekend with the first game being held Friday against Holy Cross at 3:15. 
Big Contest in the North 10.21.04
The RND Junior Panthers played their best defensive match of the season to pull off the straight set victory.  By shutting down Sydenham's big hitters and serving aggressively, the boys controlled the contest from beginning to end.  Dan McBride had another excellent performance distributing the ball to all five hitters and John Bosica made numerous defensive saves to keep rallies going.  Two matches left before the real season begins.
Panthers Regain Confident From at RND vs FSS 10.15.04
RND Junior Boys had a strong game from start to finish in defeating the Falcons of Frontenac in three straight games. The team's intensity and enthusiasm was much improved and this translated into more confident play.  Michael Walsh, Joseph O'Neill, and Derek Wilson had 7 kills apiece.  Keep up the good work boys, big week coming up.
Juniors Start the Sweep of the Crusaders 10.13.04
Junior Boys Volleyball overcame a sloppy effort and held on for a 3 games to 1 victory over Holy Cross.  The effort will need to improve as the Junior Panthers push the playoffs.
Panthers Bounce the Blues 10.08.04
Junior Boys Volleyball won 3 straight games playing their best match this season and are now 5 and 0.   Dustin Garrett had a strong game passing and Joseph O'Neill and Michael Walsh were strong at the net.
Snuffed Out the Dragons 10.05.04
The RND boys served tough and took advantage of free balls to earn their 4th straight KASSAA victory.  Tough match this Thursday versus their inner city rival KCVI.  Come on out to support the team.
Junior Record Improves in Odessa 09.29.04
With a 3 games to1 win over the hometown Ernestown Eagles the Panthers extended their perfect KASSAA record.
The boys played well enough to get the win but still have many improvements to make. Strong passing by Marcus Ruffalo and John Bosica and tough serving by Daneil McBride and Travis Rizzi led the boys to victory. Three and 0 in the league, keep it going!
Northern Panthers No Match for Southern Panthers 09.28.04
In an uninspiring game against poorly matched teams the RND Panthers convincingly defeated the Sharbot Lake High School Panthers in straight sets in the RND Gym. The victory moves RND to 2 - 0 in KASSAA play.
Panthers Start in the Win Column 22.09.04
RND travelled to Lasalle and came away with a 3-1 win. Dan McBride was a controlled setter and also contributed to the victory with a powerful jump serve. Marcus Ruffolo did a good job setting the ball in his first high school game. Every Panther played in an attempt to fine-tune their game for future opponents.
