It was the first road contest for the Warriors of 2018 and the black and gold did not fair well losing the match in 3 sets. Guelph controlled the match from start to finish putting away 42 kills compared to just 25 for the Gryphons.

With the loss Waterloo drops to 4-7 and are on the outside of the playoff picture looking in while Guelph occupies the final spot in the west with their 5-7 record.

Waterloo was led by Matthew Mawdsley (London/) who had 11 points on six kills and five blocks. Braden Cok (Waterloo/) was next best with 10 points. Colm Guyn (Lethbridge/) put forth a strong effort with 23 assists in the loss.
