This weekend Lock Haven Volleyball travels to the west to
face some of the toughest competition in the region. Friday we head to Clarion
University to take on the home team and reigning PSAC Conference champs,
California University. Our weekend doesn't end there, Saturday we make
our way to play the always tough Slippery Rock and Indiana
University. Our success in this crossover tournament is crucial to earning a
high ranking in the region which would set us up for a successful post season.
This week we've been making the necessary preparations
for these teams. We have looked at a decent amount of game tape to get scouting
reports, but mostly focusing on our own game in practice. This week's practices
have been filled with a lot of technical skill work along with a high level and
amount of competition. We've made a couple trips to the weight room as well to
maintain that LHU strength! We believe that Clarion and Cal U will be our
tougher matches this weekend so we've been focusing on their tendencies. We
know that both teams have a loaded offense, as do we, so we've been working
hard on our defense starting at the net with our blocking and into the back row
with scrappy pursuit. These two teams are huge targets for our team, last year
we beat Clarion in a riveting 5 set match to go to the PSAC Championship where
we played Cal who took the win in our home gym, so we definitely have the drive
and desire to beat these two long-time western team rivals.
We depart at 7am Friday!
Go LHU!!!!!
