This past week hasn't been too exciting by normal standards...and my normal standards aren't exactly front page news either. Our conference game this week was against Cornell; they were undefeated in the conference. Notice the emphasis on 'were'. We are now 3-0 in conference. Loras is the only other team in the conference that is undeafeated, but we plan on taking that title when we play them as well. We were on a 7-game winning streak after that game.
This weekend we played the MIAC/IIAC Border Battle. We went 2-0 the first day, beating both teams in three games. We didn't play spectacularly, but we were in control the entire time. So, we were then on a 9-game winning streak. Yesterday, we played Bethel and St. Mary's (ranked 24th). We should have beat both teams, particularly Bethel. We played horribly all around. Just..not good. But, we were determined to learn and make the day better by beating St. Mary's. We could have beaten them easily, and we took them to five games, but we were ousted at the end. Our record is now 14-5. It was a disappointing weekend, but I am sure this isn't our breaking point. We are looking forward to crushing the rest of the conference and getting to the National Tournament! :)
To read more about our games this weekend, the press releases are here and here.
This week we play Simpson at home! They beat us last year, and we are itching for some revenge! It's homecoming week, so that is even better. But, besides volleyball, I still have classes...unfortunatley. I have three papers due throughout the week, so today I'm going to be super busy.
Well, I better hop to it before I lose the little motivation I have. Good day, all!
