Host Tyler Bennett is joined by left-side Maddy Williscroft from the Ambrose Lions Women's Volleyball Program for the latest episode of The All-Canadian Podcast, powered by the All-Canadian Sports Network!
To start, Bennett discusses how he has grown since the start of his own podcasting journey, both as a host and as an interviewer, in a bit of foreshadowing of one of the themes of this week's episode - recollection. Bennett shares a bit on how the podcast has grown since the first episode of the Four Quarters Podcast.
Then, Williscroft joins the show to discuss a wide variety of topics, most of which center on looking back and reflecting on years that have passed. As a recent graduate of the Ambrose Women's Volleyball Program, one who played all five years with the Lions (plus one year, thanks to COVID), Williscroft takes time to look back on how her career had progressed.
The Calgary native ended up at Ambrose after graduating from Bishop Carroll High School, a self-directed high school in her hometown. Williscroft discusses many different facets of her Lions career, from how she came in as a rookie and ultimately grew into a Team Captain as her career unfolded. Williscroft also shares how she navigated being named team captain and upholding the team values while staying true to herself in a self-labeled 'identity crisis'.
As the episode moves along, Williscroft discusses Pursuit Volley, an organization that was founded in 2014 by former CUE Men's Volleyball Head Coach Ken McLaughlin. She shares a bit about the organization as a whole, and how she first got involved. Williscroft also discusses the opportunities it was presented herself and other volleyball players from across Alberta.
