#12 Lady Eagles To Begin Conference Play

| By:
Box Score 1 | Box Score 2 Torrington, WYOMING - After two impressive sweeps on Friday during the Wyo-Braska tournament, the 12th ranked USU Eastern volleyball team traveled across state lines to Torrington, Wyoming to complete their final two matches of non-conference play.  Saturday would not play out like games past.  They were defeated in both contests of the day by Western Wyoming and Eastern Wyoming Community Colleges.

"We would have liked to have had a different outcome as we finished non-conference play but it is what it is.  After competing in so many games over a short period of time I knew that a day like this was possible.  We know who we are as a team and the games played today were definitely not us.  I could immediately see the fatigue affecting the entire team as we started.  They were exhausted both mentally and physically and just couldn't compete at the level they have over the past 5 weeks.  There are things we learn in every game and we will be back in the gym breaking down those areas we need to improve on.  I am so proud of our team and what they have accomplished so far this season," said head coach Danielle Jensen.

With a record breaking tournament season behind them, the USU Eastern women's volleyball team will look to improve on their 19-5 record as they begin SWAC play.  This Thursday they will travel to #13 Salt Lake Community College to take on the Bruins at 7PM.  Saturday they will look for a win against defending national champions College of Southern Idaho at 1PM.  

Both of these conference matchups can be viewed live on the Scenic West Athletic Conference Digital Network or on USU Eastern Women's Volleyball facebook page.
