Coach's Corner
Head Coach
James Rogers said, "It feels good to end our trip with three wins today, bringing us back above .500 for the year.
Stephanie Sanchez stepped it up big for us this weekend, transitioning from a defensive specialist to a setter with both of our setters being out due to injury. We look forward to next weekend, as we hope to bring this momentum into conference play at Coastal Georgia."
Up Next
The Seahawks return to action next Saturday in Brunswick, Ga. as they open their 2018 Sun Conference schedule at the College of Coastal Georgia. The match is slated to begin at 2:00 p.m.
