Last week the Clarendon College Lady Bulldogs swept Lamar Community College three sets; 25-16, 25-16, 25-16. They seem to be coming together as a team and have been very competitive in each match, regardless of the ultimate outcome.
According to head coach Melvin Balogh, the Lady Bulldogs are a very hardworking group, take excellent care of the ball, and compete well until the final point. They never, ever give up. He says that even though they are coming up a bit short, they are mastering the team concept, and serve as well as anyone in their conference, with four of the top servers in the conference. They take most of their matches to five games.
Olivia Ortega leads this fine group of servers and the rest of the team supports them with hustle and extra effort on every point.
To date, the Lady Bulldogs are 6-21; 1-2 at home, and 2-9 on the road, and 3-10 at neutral sites. The other teams in their conference (WJCAC) are: Odessa Community College, Midland Community College, Western Texas, New Mexico Military Institute, and Frank Phillips College.
The Lady Bulldogs are home, hosting Frank Phillips this Wednesday, October 22, at 7 P.M., then host NMMI this Saturday, October 25. Match times are 1 and 3 P.M.
