Sinclair wears pink while powering to another victory<\/strong><\/p>\n

On Saturday Oct. 15, Sinclair faced Lakeland Community College in their annual Volley for the Cure game. The Sinclair volleyball team wore their alternate pink uniforms and offered souvenirs for those who donated to fund research for breast cancer awareness.<\/p>\n

Head Coach KC Gan and his players both explained the importance of the Volley for the Cure game.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt great to honor those who cannot be with us,\u201d said Gan.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was a big deal, I personally know someone who survived breast cancer,\u201d said freshman Katie Beyoglides. \u201cWe just wanted to support those who are struggling and those who are fighting for their lives.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Tartan Pride displayed pride and won the game (3-0) putting the team\u2019s record at 14-13, reaching above .500 for the first time this season.<\/p>\n

Sinclair faced the University of Miami at Middletown for an away game this past Tuesday and also won that contest by the score of (3-1).<\/p>\n

Sinclair Volleyball lays it all on the line<\/strong><\/p>\n

On Wednesday, Oct. 19 the Sinclair women\u2019s volleyball team faced Edison Community College in an Ohio Community College Athletic Conference match-up. Sinclair entered the game in third place in the OCCAC with a 7-3 conference record, 15-13 overall.<\/p>\n

Sinclair got off to a good start, winning the first set 25-21.<\/p>\n

During the second set Sinclair hit a rough patch, causing Gan to call a timeout to rally his troops.<\/p>\n

After the timeout, the squad responded with a flurry and took the second set 25-22 to go up 2-0, pushing Edison to the limit.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe team was playing without discipline,\u201d Gan said. \u201cWe made some subs and we started to play our game. Korynn [Davis] came in and played well.\u201d<\/p>\n

The third set, however, went in Edison\u2019s favor 21-25. But Sinclair rallied to show the Tartan Pride spirit in the fourth set jumping out to an insurmountable lead. Sinclair took the final set 25-10 on route to the team\u2019s fifth straight win.<\/p>\n

Despite the sluggish start in Wednesday\u2019s game, the team appears to be firing on all cylinders, yet coach Gan said there is more work to be done.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery time we lose, we give points away,\u201d Gan said. \u201cWe need to play defense instead of just moving our feet around.\u201d<\/p>\n

The team stands at 16-13 overall and will play in a Regional Tournament in Grand Rapids, Mich. from Nov. fourth to the sixth and Gan is looking forward to seeing what his team can do.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s hard to tell, the teams in Michigan are very competitive,\u201d Gan said.\u201dEither you play good or you lose.\u201d<\/p>\n
