Findlay University too much firepower for the Wave
NCAA Division 2 team comes to campus
The Ohio State Marion
women's volleyball program competed against an NCAA division 2 JV
program for the first time at the Alber Student Center.
The match was played with both
teams exchanging leads throughout each set. But in the end,
the Oiler attack found the gaps in the wave defense to secure the
win 23-25, 18-25, 23-25.
"We had too many mistakes and
miscues that prevented us from winning the first two sets," stated
Coach Mark Sisler. "Once we got into a 0-2 deficit, we
just didn't respond to the adversity. That has been
uncharacteristic of us until now. Our team knows that
successful teams are those that commit the fewest mistakes in a
volleyball match." |

Weekend of September 4-5, 2009
Scarlet Wave participate in USCAA Early Bird Classic
Lady Wave continue to play well among USCAA competition
The
first round of the 2009 USCAA Early Bird tournament placed Ohio
State Marion against the top two teams in the USCAA. #1 and
defending national champion Spalding University showed why their the
defending champion as their offensive attack was too quick for the
lady wave. Spalding defeated Ohio State Marion
in straight sets 14-25, 22-25,
23-25.
The Scarlet Wave witnessed a
repeat of last week's championship match with Rochester College.
Again, depth became a problem for the lady Wave as they fell short
25-15, 22-25, 20-25, 17-25.
"In both of these matches, we
played well enough to possibly win a few more sets," stated Coach
Mark Sisler. "However, our mental toughness is currently not
at the caliber of Spalding and Rochester."

Day two of the Classic was
victorious for the Scarlet Wave. The lady wave fought off a
tough match with Indiana University Northwest and prevailed
25-20, 25-19,
25-21. Everything
was clicking for Ohio State Marion
in the second match
as they downed Hiwassee College
25-11, 25-9, 25-6
. After losing the first set 14-25, the lady Wave finished the
day strong with a
25-21, 25-19,
25-22 victory over a
good St. Catherine College team from Kentucky.
"It was really nice to see our
team respond in the right way after day one," stated Coach Sisler.
"Throughout the day, our
team's consistent passing helped set up our in-system sets.
Our defensive blocking was also their when we needed it." |
Weekend of August 28-29, 2009
Scarlet Wave finish as runner-up in Penn State Tournament
Lady Wave fall short to USCAA Rochester College
The
lady wave began the tournament in good fashion by defeating Penn
College in straight sets

25-18, 25-10,
and
defeating Penn State Beaver in four
20-25,
25-11, 25-17, 25-19.
"Our team got off to a
good start vs Penn College and responded well to PSU Beaver's
amazing start in
the next match," stated Coach Mark Sisler. "Our team began
passing better which allowed our middles to hit the seams in their
defense."
The next day's
match united the Scarlet Wave with Rochester College. "This
championship match was a great match for us even though we fell
short at the end," stated Coach Mark Sisler. "Both teams
exchanged leads throughout this match, and it seams that their depth
was the deciding factor in our loss. I hope this is an
indication of what we can expect for us the rest of this season."
The final results: 25-22, 21-25,
23-25, 22-25. |

sets
25-21,
25-23, 25-21.
"It was amazing we won
each set because Marygrove was digging everything up," stated Coach
Mark Sisler. "Often, there defense was putting us
out-of-system offensively. It was a good match for both teams
as we begin our seasons."
The lady wave
couldn't find their rhythm in the next three matches of the Classic
as they fell short to Purdue North Central (Chicagoland Collegiate
Athletic Conference member),
perennial USCAA power Rochester College and the host school,
Concordia University (Wolverine Hoosier Athletic Conference). |
