WINNIPEG, MB – Fans of The University of Winnipeg Wesmen can watch volleyball action this weekend online at http://uwinnipeg.tv/live/, as the men’s volleyball team plays host to the Calgary Dinosaurs.

This weekend’s webcasts mark the first time the defending CIS National Champions will be shown online this season. The No. 2-ranked Wesmen can be seen at the following webcast times:

DATE GAME TIME
