The Thompson Rivers University WolfPack women’s volleyball team is off to a strong start to the 2025–26 Canada West season, winning three of their first four matches to build early momentum.

TRU opened the season on the road with a pair of impressive victories, sweeping the University of Regina 3–0 on October 24 before following up with a 3–1 win the next night. Returning home for their first matches at the Tournament Capital Centre, the WolfPack dropped a hard-fought 3–1 decision to the University of Saskatchewan on October 31, but bounced back the next evening with a decisive 3–0 victory to close out the weekend.

Veteran setter Libby Meldrum has been steady in orchestrating the offense, while Faith Christiansen continues to lead the way with strong attacking performances. Rida Erlalelitepe has provided a calming presence and consistency at the net, and Hail Ward’s growth has been evident in her early-season contributions on both sides of the ball.

With a 3–1 record to start the campaign, the WolfPack have positioned themselves among the early contenders in Canada West play. TRU will look to keep building on their strong form as they continue their home schedule and push toward another playoff appearance.
