Braumberger commits to Tigers for 2026-27

Dalhousie Tigers women’s volleyball head coach Patty Murray is pleased to announce the commitment of Daven Braumberger for the 2026-27 season.  

Hailing from Ottawa, Ontario, Braumberger is a co-captain of her Ottawa Maverick 18U team. A libero, she has extensive experience representing her province on the national stage. She was a member of the Team Ontario Black team that earned a silver medal at Volleyball Canada’s 2025 Canada Cup where she was also named to the all-Canadian team for the second time in her career. She previously was a member of the 2024 Team Ontario Red and the 2023 Team Ontario White teams at the same tournament.  

In 2024 she also earned a silver medal at the Alberta Indigenous Summer Games as a member of the U19 Team Ontario Indigenous Niigaanii. In her high school gym at Sacred Heart High School, she is a captain of the volleyball team and was named the team MVP for the 2023-24 season.  

“I’m so excited to continue my academic and athletic career at Dalhousie,” says Braumberger. “I knew instantly that the Tiger program was the right fit for me. It felt like a perfect balance of strong academics, amazing people and a competitive, supportive and driven volleyball program under Coach Patty. The team, the coaches and the energy made me feel welcomed so quickly.” 

“Daven brings an infectious energy and a defensive presence that will immediately elevate our gym. Her time in high-level competitive environments has accelerated her development as a player, and we’re excited to welcome her to the Tigers” says Murray.

A four-year member of the honour roll at Scared Heart, Braumberger will be studying kinesiology at Dalhousie.
