With nearly a month left in the season, the Sinclair Community College volleyball head coach K.C. Gan acknowledges the team\u2019s accomplishments.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe team keeps doing better and better, we are now 23-3 overall and 5-1 in the conference,\u201d Gan said.<\/p>\n

Although the last four matches were against non-conference teams, Gan believes that the Tartans keep improving with each game.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy team is very different because, fortunately, I have all-American players on the team,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Gan said that his players can attack very well, but believes that just like any other team, there is room for improvement.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey are ready to play against anybody,\u201d Gan said. \u201cMy players are able to attack very well, but there are weak points they have to work on, and are working on.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gan believes that the team is coming together as a unit, and has seen improvements throughout the 2013 season.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy Marie Rank, she has been working really hard in every match. She is a leader,\u201d Gan said. \u201cMy number 10, Jessica Thobe, has been very consistent in her hitting. She averages 12 to 15 hits per match normally.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the previous games, Gan said that his second string has put forth an outstanding effort and that Carly Butler has been improving. He believes she will be a valuable player by the end of the year.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy second string players in the last couple of matches have had to step up,\u201d Gan said. \u201cMy number two Carly Butler has improved a lot; by the end of the year she will be an outstanding player. She plays very well.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gan said the Oct. 2 game against Owens Community College was one he was ready for.<\/p>\n

For 13 years straight, Owens has been the champion of the conference.<\/p>\n

“My team is ready to play against Owens,\u201d Gan said.<\/p>\n

The team beat Owens Community College 3-1 on Oct. 2 for the first time in Gan’s 15 year career.<\/p>\n

Gan also said that he is proud of his team and excited for what is to come.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am really excited for the games and proud of my team,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
