On Wednesday, Oct. 19 the Sinclair women’s volleyball team faced Edison Community in an Ohio Community College Athletic Conference matchup. Sinclair entered the game in third place in the OCCAC with a 7-3 conference record, 15-13 overall.
Sinclair got off to a good start, winning the first set 25-21.
During the second set Sinclair hit a rough patch, where head coach KC Gan called a timeout to rally his troops.
After the timeout, the squad responded with a flurry and took the second set 25-22 to go up 2-0 pushing Edison to the limit.
“The team was playing without discipline,” Gan said. “We made some subs and we started to play our game. Korynn came in and played well.”
The third set however went in Edison’s favor 21-25. But Sinclair rallied to show the Tartan Pride spirit in the fourth set jumping out to an insurmountable lead. Sinclair took the final set 25-10 in rout to their fifth straight win.
Despite the sluggish start in Wednesday’s game, the team appears to be hitting on all cylinders yet coach Gan says there is more work to be done.
“Every time we lose, we give points away,” Gan said. “We need to play defense instead of just moving out feet around.
The team stands at 16-13 overall and will play in a Regional Tournament in Grand Rapids, Mich. From Nov. 4-6 and Gan is looking forward to seeing what his team can do.
“It’s hard to tell, the teams in Michigan are very competitive, Gan said. Either you play good, or you lose.”
