SMC Falls at Home to KVCC

The Southwestern Michigan College volleyball team fell Tuesday night to KVCC 17-25, 19-25, and 16-25. 

"Despite the loss tonight, we are focusing on some of the positives," said Coach Jenny Nate. "KVCC has a tough, experienced team with a fast offense and a strong defense.  We knew we would have to work hard to break through their block and put the ball down.   Despite not being able to pull out a set win, we did a goob job keeping our composure and battling for one point at a time.  We had some unforced errors throughout the night; we have to be disciplined to clean those up, and that will help us close the margin of these set scores.  Nights like tonight really give us a chance to evaluate our speed both offensively and defensively, and take a look at areas of weakness that we can work hard on at practice this week.  We communicated well and worked well together as a team; we just have to find a way to control more point runs and to get out each rotation quickly on serve receive.  We have to keep our heads up, keep building this team and program, and hit the court hard tomorrow in preparation to face Glen Oaks on Thursday." 

The Roadrunners are now 11-16 overall and 4-5  in the conference.
