      The
      UPEI
      Panthers
      women’s
      volleyball
      team
      had
      their
      lifetime
      pursuit
      of
      making
     
     
      the
      2005-2006
      playoffs
      brutally
      demolished
      by
      Acadia
      last
      weekend.
      The
     
     
      Panthers
      will
      play
      out
      the
      rest
      of
      the
      season
      as
      spoilers
      who
      have
      not
      made
      the
     
     
      playoffs.
      They
      will,
      however,
      affect
      the
      standings
      of
      their
      opponents,
      since
     
     
      they
      were
      eliminated
      from
      playoff
      contention.
      The
      sorrow
      generated
      from
      the
     
     
      must-win
      game
      had
      this
      writer
      consider
      permanently
      quitting
      his
      post
      such
      is
     
     
      his
      grief.
     
    

    
     
      But
      if
      one
      was
      going
      to
      be
      eliminated
      from
      the
      playoffs
      -
      permanently,
     
     
      and
      until
      next
      year
      -
      one
      would
      want
      to
      do
      it
      in
      the
      fashion
      the
      Panthers
      did.
     
     
      The
      team
      battled
      admirably
      until
      the
      final
      moments
      of
      the
      game,
      which
      was
     
     
      lost
      in
      a
      hard-fought
      fifth
      set
      to
      the
      seventh
      ranked
      Acadia
      team.
      The
      win
      put
     
     
      the
      Axewomen
      into
      the
      last
      playoff
      spot.
     
    

    
     
      On
      the
      bright
      side,
      Nikki
      Murphy
      of
      the
      Panthers
      had
      a
      53%
      kill
      rate,
      a
     
     
      personal
      best.
      Lindsay
      Fisher
      managed
      45
      assists
      and
      Stephanie
      McKinnon
     
     
      attained
      15
      digs
      in
      their
      effort.
      The
      Panthers
      are
      busy
      in
      action
      this
      weekend,
     
     
      playing
      spoiler
      to
      Moncton
      and
      UNB
      on
      Saturday
      and
      Sunday.
      With
      a
      young
     
     
      team,
      however,
      next
      year
      will
      see
      the
      Panther
      return
      many
      players
      for
      another
     
     
      playoff
      run,
      which
      will
      hopefully
      make
      the
      fruits
      of
      their
      labour
      mote
      satisfying.
