Lady Chaps Improve to 4-0 in Conference on Breast Cancer Awareness Night

Trinity Walker terminates
late in the third game

From Forrest Allen
Midland College Athletic Director

Its unclear what is more impressive. That the Lady Chap volleyball team is unbeaten in conference play or the team's nine-match win streak. What is clear is that Coach Tammie Jimenez and the Midland College Lady Chaparrals appear to have found their footing on what was sometimes a difficult path this season.

On their annual Breast Cancer Awareness Night, Midland College defeated a feisty Clarendon College Lady Bulldog team in straight sets, 25-18, 25-22, 25-18 to extend their current win streak to nine matches, including six consecutive in which MC won three games to zero.
Each member of the team contributed in the win which helped the Lady Chaps remain undefeated in the WJCAC (4-0) and no worse than a tie for first place in the conference race with Western Texas College. WTC plays New Mexico Military Institute, also on Wednesday evening and depending on the outcome of that match the Lady Chaps could be tied for first or all alone in first place in the conference standings.

The win improved the Lady Chap's season record to 12-11 heading into next week's pivotal match-up with Western Texas in Snyder.
