Craig McKenzie Blazes his Trail to CMU to Head Coach Women's Volleyball

Women's Volleyball Head Coach Jayme Menzies Leaves Program in a Good Place

The CMU Blazers would like to give a heartfelt thanks and bid farewell to Women's Volleyball coach Jayme Menzies, who is leaving the program in a good place after a busy spring of recruiting for the 2025-26 team.

Menzies joined the Blazers program in 2019, and took the helm of the women's team for the 2019-20 season, finding immediate success by capturing the MCAC title in 2020, during the MCAC's first probationary year of inclusion in the Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association. The Blazers took home the MCAC title once again under Menzies during the 2023-24 season, securing the program's first-ever berth in the CCAA National tournament held in Red Deer in 2024.

2025/26 Women's Basketball Roster Preview

Blazers women's basketball has been the most successful CMU Athletics program over the past seven years, capturing six MCAC titles, as well as two NIAC titles during that span. The program is looking to continue its hot streak, but will have some big holes in the roster to fill if they want to bring titles back to CMU in back-to-back seasons.

After a big win on home court last march in the MCAC Championship Final, Blazers Men's Basketball is looking to run it back this year with no graduates leaving the program. That said, there will still be a few roster changes with some student-athletes ending their time with the Blazers, and a few roster spots up for grabs for some incoming recruits.

2025/26 Women's Soccer Roster Preview

Blazers women's soccer had an early start to their off-season signings, with outgoing head coach Jason Moist lining up a solid slate of new recruits for the 2025/26 edition of the team prior to his departure in early spring. Now at the helm, Peter Marinelli must put the pieces in place to try and improve the team further heading into the MCAC season, as they attempt to hoist the Championship trophy for the first time since 2018 and for the first time in the CCAA era.
