The Brock women's volleyball team are heading to the playoffs for the first time in four years.

The Badgers clinched a playoff berth with a 3-0 (25-17, 25-11, 25-14) win over the Nipissing Lakers at Bob Davis Gym on Sunday. The win was also their seventh consecutive victory.

"This is a great group of young ladies and from Day 1 they bought into everything I asked them to," said first-year head coach Steve Delaney. "They work hard, and we learn together and we continue to do what we have to do to try and build a winning culture. All of the hard work and dedication is starting to payoff."
