The Thompson Rivers University WolfPack Women’s Volleyball team has earned national recognition early in the 2025–26 campaign, climbing into the U SPORTS Top-10 rankings after a confident start to their season.

Following a 3–1 opening stretch that included decisive wins over Regina and a bounce back sweep at home against Saskatchewan, the WolfPack have quickly made their case as one of the rising contenders in Canadian university volleyball. Their early consistency paired with a composed, veteran driven style of play has propelled TRU into the national conversation.

Setter Libby Meldrum continues to anchor the WolfPack offense with her trademark poise, distributing the ball with precision while maintaining a steady on-court presence. Faith Christiansen remains one of TRU’s most reliable scoring threats, delivering efficient attacking performances through the first two weekends. At the net, Rida Erlalelitepe has been a stabilizing force defensively, and Hail Ward has shown significant early season growth, contributing in key stretches on both offense and defense.

The WolfPack continue their season tonight inside the TCC at 5:30 against the University of Manitoba.
