PC Volleyball Camp Report
CLINTON, S.C. - The Presbyterian College volleyball team is in its second week of preparation for the 2007 season.
The team's first season in NCAA Division I on the horizon, Blue Hose head coach Chris Belshe has seen obvious improvement in the program in his second year at the helm.
“We entered camp a little ahead of where I thought we would be and I am pleased with our progress,” noted Belshe after a PC practice on Thursday afternoon. “Our serve- receive and defense is much improved from last year. Our offense is also beginning to come together.
“You can tell a distinct difference between last year and this year. They seem to really understand the challenges that this year presents and they are excited and eager to accept them.”
Lone senior Lauren Mason is leading the way, showing from the outset of preseason camp that her off-season regimen has proved effective in making her stronger, quicker and more explosive on the court.
PC and Mason commence the regular season at the Charlotte Tournament, opening its campaign with a match against Appalachian State on Aug. 24.
