We are very small team last season. We started out strong and faded toward the end. Maybe they see the same thing happening this year.

We're 5-6 now with losses to Coastal Carolina, Binghampton, Bryant and Virginia. Most of those games were close scores with the exception of Virginia. The past weekend we lose to Stony Brook in straight sets on Friday but beat them 3-1 on Saturday. According to Coach Mansur's post presser they have had to juggle the players since they have injuries. Stony Brook came in with a record of 7-2. We're using freshman and this team could be a developing team as the season moves on.

So we beat North eastern score of 3-0
The early struggles we had at the beginning of the year and injuries have been a blessing in disguise
Coach Emily Mansour now has Her team in the right direction
We are tied with Charleston7-1 Record for the top spot in the CAA
We travel to UNCW Next week
I just predict that we should be in the top four
Between Charleston and Delaware and Towson
These are the top teams in the league

So take care of business and beat UNCW
Our record is nine wins in one loss the same as Charleston at the top of the CAA standings
Now the tougher part of our schedule awaits us
We played Delaware next week at home
They are seven wins three losses, but are the defending CAA champions
They are a very talented team
Need to take two or at least split with them

We’re healthy now and seemingly firing on all cylinders. Hopefully we continue to roll.

We sweep W&M after two five set losses to Delaware last weekend at home. We remain in first place with a record of 11-3 in the CAA. A LOT OF TEAMS though breathing down our necks. We are playing at a very high level now lets hope we can keep it going.

We rout NC A&T YESTERDAY in 3 sets 25-16, 26-24, and 25-21. I happen to look at the SMALL article in the Newsday this morning and it has all the players for NCA&T mentioned and their stats and says they're HU players. Great work Newsday on covering our sports. Just embarrassing.

That newspaper is pathetic. FIVE pages of HS sports, literally NO COVERAGE OF OUR IONA WIN, yet the're up St. John's and Rick Pitino's ARSE.
