Good fortunes continued for the Northwest College Lady Trappers last weekend, thanks to a 6-0 mark during the Colby (Kan.) Classic Tournament. NWC, now 14-5 for the season, went through the event without losing a set during any of their matches.
Seven matches in two days- that was the task facing the Northwest College Lady Trappers last Friday and Saturday at the College of Southern Idaho's Outback Invitational in Twin Falls. Making that challenge even more difficult for NWC was the fact that four of its opponents boasted lofty national rankings entering the event.
A new era in Northwest College volleyball will officially start Friday when the Lady Trappers begin competition in the two-day College of Southern Idaho's Outback Invitational.
The Northwest College volleyball team, under the direction of first-year Lady Trapper head coach Flavia Siqueira,will open the 2008 season Friday, Aug. 22, according to the official schedule recently released by NWC. On that day, the Lady Trappers are scheduled to begin competition at the College of Southern Idaho's Outback Invitational inTwin Falls, Idaho, with a 10:30 a.m. match against the event' s host team. That tournament will be the start of a long series of road matches for the Lady Trappers, who will not grace the court in NWC's Hank Cabre Gymnasium for an official home match until Sept. 22.
Flavia Siqueira, head coach of the Northwest College volleyball team, went into this year's camp with several goals in mind. One was to teach individual skills to girls in grades eight through 12. Another key objective was to allow her players, who served as instructors, to develop much-needed chemistry prior to the start of the 2008 season.
The Northwest College volleyball team and head coach Flavia Siqueira will conduct a pair of camps beginning Aug. 3.
