The Thompson Rivers WolfPack Women's Volleyball team continues to rack up the awards for the 2025/26 season.

Head coach Chad Grimm has been named Canada West Coach of the Year, while fourth year standout Olivia Andulajevic earned Canada West Libero of the Year.

For Grimm, the award reflects the steady rise of the WolfPack program. Under his leadership, TRU has continued to establish itself as one of the most competitive teams in the conference, built on discipline, depth, and a relentless defensive identity. Game after game, the WolfPack showed resilience in tight matches and consistency against top-tier opponents. 

Andulajevic, the veteran libero anchored the WolfPack backcourt all season long, providing support, timely digs, and the type of leadership that rarely shows up on a stat sheet but changes matches nonetheless. Her ability to read hitters and extend rallies gave TRU a defensive edge night after night. Being named Libero of the Year is a testament to her consistency and impact.

With a Coach of the Year on the bench and Libero of the Year on the court, the WolfPack have set a standard and sent a clear message that the program’s momentum is only building.
