This is important and may be difficult because I am sure TCU will be inspired to defend their home court and break their losing streak. I will be following it closely.

Match starts at 1 PM. Should start a good roll for the ladies.
We win handily in the first set, 25-16. We need to keep the pressure on. None of this, giving the other team a chance. Go for the kill!
Iowa State wins the second set by a hair. Way to come back and then finish them off. One more set to win and then we are moving up in the standings.
Set 3 is when things usually go bad. Just need to come out and finish them, instead of our normal 3rd set.
lets go ladies. Finish!!
Much better 3rd set so far. Keep it up!
Kind of looks like we took out our bad streak in set 2. We are doing a good job dominating this team so far. That come from behind win probably took the wind out of their sails.
Let's get this one! Go ladies!
Good win by the ladies. Im thinking we can start a big winning streak right now!
Favorable schedule for the next couple matches. Should be a nice winning streak.Quote:

If we can knock them off at their home place, we would be sitting very well. Anyway, I will be around.
What I think was concerning in the TCU game was two of our starters were subbed out for probably poor offessive proformances. TCU really isn't a powerhouse in the BIG12 so shouldn't our outsides have been at least somewhat effective? I believe one hit .0 and the other -.200 ish.
The coach mentioned in her interview, Rachel Hockaday, was tired because she isn't that tall and has to jump often. She also mentioned that Bigbee hasn't been as effective because the other teams have scouted her and so they are moving her around to get her experience in varying her attack. She says this is the best bench that she has had in her career. I hope that plays into having a positive end to the season.
