On The Record With Megan Wong, Part VI

Hey! Sorry I haven't been able to update you on our season lately. I've been busy with school. Anyway, as you can see, it's been a roller coaster ride for our team this year as it has been for many of the other teams in the CCAA. Teams have been beating and losing to other teams unexpectedly. Counting down the final games of the season 1st-5th place are up for grabs. It's going to be a dog fight for this last stretch.

This year seems to have been a tough one for us on the road. We lost to all the BIG teams in away games: CSULA, CSUSB, CPP, and UCSD. This past weekend were crucial games for us against CSUMB and SF State. Down 2-0 vs. the Gators, we managed to come back and take the victory going to 20-5 overall.

Our defense is what is keeping us in the games. As the saying goes "Offense sells tickets and Defense wins championships!" However, Junior Setter Lindsay Brown has been able to connect with Junior Middle Blocker Rikki Buckshins and Senior Outside Hitter Kristy Sather to make our offense unstoppable.

And on a side note Congratulations to Rikki (1st team) and Kristie(2nd team) for being ESPN The Magazine All-Academic Scholars.

Lately at practice we've been playing the error game, which puts in real game situation and it shows who and how our team is making errors when it comes to the real deal.

We face CSUSB Friday night and CPP Saturday @ 7pm. These games will determine if we can play with the BIG DOGS!
