    Default Volleyball Home Matches

    Went to my first match this season and first in about 8 years. I really like what they've done with the BBF. Looks nice in there. On to the match. Bison were the better team last night and it wasn't ever really in doubt. Failed to get a program so putting names to faces/numbers isn't easy. Libero and setter are extremely fun to watch. I believe both are upper classman. We have some younger front row players that definitely have the skill but need the games to bring about the experience needed to play more calm. Fun bunch to watch and if we ever have the opportunity to go back, we definitely will. I really enjoy Coach Lopez. Great communicator, full of energy and she seems very relatable to the players. Most impressive thing about her is her ability to emulate digs on the sidelines with heels on. People have a hard time moving like that in athletic shoes let alone heels. She has a great fire in her and a passion for the game, so I hope that NDSU keeps her around. Obviously we have no idea what her ability to recruit is (don't know what her role in that was in her time as an assistant) but if you can teach the game, you can teach anyone.

    I am so sick of the Bison already. Win this, win that, blah, blah, blah. I'd really, really like to know how they do it. I swear they have to be the luckiest sob's on the planet. Just sick of this bs, just fed up.

    JLo has the team moving in right direction. Team is playing well also. Go Bison

    With the victory NDSU raises it’s season record to 13-5, 4-2 Summit. The Bison have won seven of eight home matches. The Bison host Western Illinois (6-14, 1-4 SL) at 1 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 15.

    Am encouraged the recruiting class stayed with Coach Lopez and that freshmen are contributing.
    Don’t think they lost any of the recruits from last winter and spring (?) so it makes the transition much smoother.
    A couple examples include 6’ 1” FR Allie Mauch with 9 kills, 3 blocks in the Omaha match and 6’ 2” FR Bella Lien with 7 kills, 3 blocks.

    Southern Illinois struggling under Coach Thompson so far, the Salukis are 4-14 overall, 3-4 Missouri Valley.
