The University of Windsor Lancers men's volleyball team swept the TMU Bold straight sets in both games of a back-to-back on Friday (Nov. 14) and Saturday (Nov. 15) at Toldo Lancer Centre.

FRIDAY
Windsor continued their perfect start at home, taking down the TMU Bold in straight sets on Friday night. 

Windsor controlled the match from start to finish, taking all three sets with scores of 25–22, 25–17, and 25–18. The steady side-out game and stronger offensive efficiency of the Lancers proved decisive. The Lancers hit .278 as a team, while the Bold were limited to .122. TMU's best push came in the first set, where they trailed by just three, but Windsor's serving pressure and balanced attack prevented any momentum shift across the remainder of the match. 

Windsor was powered by a multi-pronged attack. Gustavo Siqueira paced the Lancers with 11 kills (.364) and 13.5 points, while Darian Koskie added 10 kills on an efficient .667. Kaden Reid delivered a strong two-way performance with five kills and five service aces, and setter Markus Law-Heese controlled the match with 32 assists. Defensively, Windsor produced 14 block assists and 29 digs to limit TMU's scoring chances. 

Leading the way offensively for TMU was William Gimbert, who posted nine kills on .667 hitting, followed by Riley Donovan with eight kills and 10.5 points. Setter Declan Dunn finished with 21 assists and six digs, while Day Westell added four kills and 4.5 points. On the defensive side, Ethan Lau led the team with seven digs, while TMU combined for three blocks.

Windsor held TMU to an under-.200 hitting percentage in all three sets. Windsor's offence steadily climbed throughout the match, finishing with an impressive .500 clip in the third set to seal the sweep.
