A Recap of Cheyney and West Chester from Grace


This past weekend, Lock Haven Women's Volleyball traveled to the always sunny city of Philadelphia to play two PSAC East teams.  On Friday, we faced Cheyney, which was a great opportunity for us to try new things on the court and start off eastern conference play on the right foot.  It was awesome to watch and cheer on my teammates and to see the definite shape and direction of our future team.  Individuals showed their unique playing attributes that I usually overlook when I am caught up in practice or a game, and I was proud to see the growth and development of some of our younger players.  Staying on the attack all game, we got the 3-0 win with confidence.

    Saturday afternoon, we were up against West Chester and, keeping the Lock Haven tradition of never losing to them, we swept the Golden Rams 3-0. Driven by solid first contacts on serve receive, our offense had one of our most dominating performances of the year, making the game extremely enjoyable on our side of the net.  This was one of our best weekends overall and it certainly showed our clear progress as a volleyball team.  At this point in the season, we are at the perfect time to be putting it all together.  We are benefiting from more in-depth and detail-oriented practices as we prepare for our second cross-over tournament this weekend against some of the toughest teams in the west.
