Height: 6'3"
Position: Outside Hitter
Coach Moreira, “Cole is one of the players I coached back when we were both in Okanagan and I’m glad that he’s joining us at Capilano. He’s a true mindful athlete. He’s willing to do things off the court to take care of business that is going to enhance his performance but also enhances the team’s performance as well. He’s been well coached as a member of one of the best clubs in Alberta and we’re looking forward to the dedication he brings in every aspect of being a student-athlete.”
Appleton, "I chose Capilano because of its strong volleyball program that is devoted to progress and brotherhood. As well as the amazing staff and players that surround it. I believe Capilano will help me grow to be both a better person and player.”

Hometown: Vancouver, BC
Previous Schools: Vancouver College

Coach Moreira, “Brayden is what we call a cultural architect —we expect him to help us create the environment we need to be successful in our program. No other player’s character has been as highly recommended as Brayden; I had coaches come up to me at Nationals to tell me how lucky I was to have a player of Brayden’s work ethic and integrity joining our program. Not only that, Brayden is a jack-of-all-trades who can help create stability in multiple phases of the game.”
