At the year-end Mount Allison University annual athletic awards night, Maple Ridge’s Sydney Umlah was honoured as the volleyball team’s rookie of the year.
A six-foot middle blocker with the Mounties, Umlah was a steady addition to this year’s roster, and had a real presence in the front court, said a press release from the school in Sackville, N.B.
Umlah is a former standout with the Rain City Volleyball Club, and is a graduate of Maple Ridge Secondary School, she is enrolled in first-year science at Mount Allison.
