Coach’s comments: “This year’s team is beginning to find their own personality on the court. We lost four seniors, but we have strong players back, especially our hitters. Kristen had worked with her successor as our No. 1 setter. Our back row is solid, hard workers and level-headed players. Dara had great freshman season and shows great maturity. We have a strong backcourt. We have some experience up front, so we should be solid all the time. The right-side and outside-hitters will be split. We have a little catching up to do at some spots, so they will be prepared for situations. It’s just a matter of putting the right pieces together. Our season is purely about getting ready for the postseason. Obviously you want to win, but it’s always about hanging banners on the wall.”
