Trinity Volleyball @ Hiram College

Trinity’s fifth-ranked volleyball team swept through four matches in SCAC play this weekend, and finished 4-1 for the week.

The Tigers opened the weekend with a match at second-ranked Emory, then headed to nearby Oglethorpe to continue conference action.

Trinity took over sole possession of first place as a result, defeating DePauw and Oglethorpe on Saturday, then downing Centre and Austin College on Sunday.

After having a home tournament cancelled by weather concerns due to Hurricane Ike earlier this month, Trinity added a weekend of action on the road. The Tigers will travel to Hiram College in Hiram, Ohio, to play four neutral matches on Friday and Saturday. Trinity will take on Mount Union College and Hiram College on Friday, followed by a Saturday afternoon match with Washington & Jefferson.

Saturday evening will be the biggest matchup of the weekend, with fifth-ranked Trinity squaring off against seventh-ranked Wittenberg. The two teams last met in the 2006 NCAA Quarterfinals, won by Wittenberg.

Amy Mittelstaedt was named the SCAC Co-Player of the Week for her efforts last weekend. She is the first Trinity player to earn the honor this season. Click for the news release from the SCAC.
