You give Gabby Attieh lemons, and she’ll plant an orchard. The UBC Thunderbirds’ volleyball team’s relentlessly optimistic personality has an enviable ability to see opportunity where others might see only despair and negativity. Attieh used the time to work on her passing, so when she returned, she was that much more of a complete player. Attieh had 19 and 17 kills, respectively, in last weekend’s back-to-back 3-0 sweeps of the Dinos at War Memorial. “I’m so thrilled to look out on the court this year and see them dressed … It’s pretty special to see how far we’ve come,” said Attieh.
