Spiking It, Killing It, Loving It

A "very volleyball" weekend at Your College began with an announcement from the MC Athletics Office, about a milestone reached by an MC volleyball Coach.

Coaching Kudos


"In what can only be considered as an impressive milestone in her career, Midland College volleyball coach Kimberly Boone recorded her 100th win at the helm of the program," MC Athletic Director Forrest Allen wrote. "Boone and fourth-year assistant Tammie Jimenez got the victory in a, tougher than expected, four game win over fellow WJCAC member Western Texas College in Snyder on Wednesday night. Scores from the contest were 18-25, 25-22, 25-14, 25-14 (3-1)."

"The gym in Snyder, on the WTC campus, was raucous which seemingly took MC by surprise falling behind 18-9 in the first game. After regaining their composure the Lady Chaps were able to tighten the score, but fell nonetheless. In game two the Lady Westerners played point for point with the Lady Chaps up to the 22-22 point match. It was then Midland wrested control of the game winning 25-22. From the end of the second game until the end of the match Midland College found its groove and sailed in the final two games by twin scores of 25-14."

"The Lady Chaps were led in kills by Marta Machos (16), Marcella Braz (13), Jordan Latham (11) and Karolina Sawaniewicz (10). Braz and Gabby Garcia chipped in with 18 and 12 digs respectively while MC setter Sawyer Schaedig dished out a whopping 52 assists in the contest."
"In typical Boone fashion she credited the players for the milestone, "It came with a fight. It wasn't an easy 100th win, but it's a real credit to the players for making it happen."
