Having a season to remember, DJ Molle is named a Canadian Colleges Athletics Association (CCAA) All-Canadian, being honoured at the 2023 CCAA Women's Volleyball National Championship, hosted by Vancouver Island University (VIU) in Nanaimo, BC.
Joining Vikings Alumnae Rae Metrunic who earned the same honour during the 2019-20 season, Molle is just the second Vikings Women's Volleyball student-athlete to earn herself an All-Canadian award.
Given to the best CCAA Women's Volleyball student-athletes over the course of the season for excellence in collegiate athletics. Molle joins 14 other student-athletes from across the country, including fellow Alberta Colleges Athletics Conference (ACAC) players Jamie Brown (Lethbridge Kodiaks) and Jenay Varga (Lakeland Rustlers).
During the 2022-23 season, Molle played in 15 matches with 0.59 blocks per set over the course of the regular season, enough for fifth in the Alberta Colleges Athletics Conference (ACAC), while also adding 26 total blocks to lead the team.
During the ACAC Championship, Molle added another 15 kills, eight blocks, seven digs and three aces through 10 sets played, including a .714 kill percentage against the Ambrose Lions in the championship quarterfinal.
Molle and the Viking will take to the court on March 8th against the Réseau du sport étudiant du Québec (RESQ) champions, Lynx d' Édouard-Montpetit at 4:00pm PST in Vancouver Island University (VIU) Gymnasium.
