The Great Plains College Men's Volleyball team was one step away from a Western Canadian Championship this week.
After a frustrating, injury filled season, the SunDogs earned second place in Westerns after a loss to Kelsey in the final.
Great Plains Coach Jason Loewer says a lot of people counted them out.
Loewer was also the provincial coach of the year.
He credits the school's athletic department for putting together a strong team for them this season.
