Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»­ Volleyball: Saints Improve to 6-3 Ahead of First Conference Match

September 12, 2024

September 12, 2024 – Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»­ traveled to New Port Richey for their final tune-up before conference play, taking on Pasco-Hernando State College.

After taking a two-set lead, the Saints looked to secure their first three-set win of the year, but the Bobcats rallied and pushed the match to five sets.

The Saints prevailed, earning their second five-set victory of the season in four such matches. This win ended the Bobcats' three-game win streak and gave the Saints their best start since 2020.

"I guess we are a five-set team right now," Saints Head Coach Bailey Coleman said. "We need to learn how to finish matches a bit better. We need to get better with our mental game down the stretch, but I am happy we kept fighting and didn't give up down the stretch."

The 6-3 Saints return to action on Saturday, Sept. 14, at 2:00 p.m. in Gainesville, where they will face 16th-ranked Hillsborough Community College to open conference play.

Come support the Santa Fe Saints at the Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»­ Gym, 3000 NW 83 Street, Gainesville. Admission is free for Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»­ faculty, staff, students and retirees with Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»­ID.
