dmksioux Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 The Big Sky Preaseason Volleyball Poll has been released. UNC is ranked #1. UND picked up one first place vote in the poll and ranked 4th. Here is the link... http://www.bigskycon...0813121022.aspx The Sioux...er UND is only one point behind EWU for third place in the poll. It would be nice to see UND in the top three, but since they don't have a Senior on their roster this year and they are new to the BSC, fourth place isn't too bad of a spot to be placed. I do expect them to be battling it out for the conference championship and a trip to the tournament though. 1 Quote

I thought, at 6'3" tall, she might get a real shot to contribute this year. Quote
bincitysioux Posted August 14, 2012 Posted August 14, 2012 I'd be mildly shocked if North Dakota doesn't finish at least as high as 2nd place in the regular season standings.......................... Quote
PhillySioux Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 Opening up against #5 USC in about 20 minutes. Quote
jdub27 Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 Opening up against #5 USC in about 20 minutes. Tournament home page with links to live game stats if anyone is interested. Quote
UND1983 Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 That tournament is LOADED! Nothing like diving in head first. Quote
Teeder11 Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 UND played #5 USC tough in the first set, losing 25-20. USC was in the '11 VB Final Four. Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted August 24, 2012 Author Posted August 24, 2012 Looks like we played them tougher in the second set, but fell short 25-23 Quote
Teeder11 Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 UND proves first set was not an anomoly as it pushes #5 USC to the brink of set 2, before losing 25-23. Wow what a showing by our ladies! Go UND!!! Quote
dmksioux Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 Looks like they are leading in the third set, 12-8. Would be nice to see them win at least one of the sets... EDIT: Nice game by the ladies but fall in the 3rd set, 25-21. Hopefully they can bounce back against Texas State later today. Quote
Teeder11 Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 Just wasn't in the cards against one of the toughest teams in the nation. UND drops final set 25-21. So sets went 25-20, 25-23, 25-21 for USC. A first year Division I tournament eligible team takes an established VB powerhouse and drops 20+ on them in each set in their first match of the year. It's probably all down hill from here for UND until tourney time, if that's in the cards. Way to make us proud, ladies! Quote
UND Fan Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 Our being in the 20's in each game is amazing! Congrats, ladies! Quote
Teeder11 Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 I will be thrilled if we can come out of this weekend 1-2. I will be absolutely through-the-roof ecstatic if we can make it 2-1. After seeing how they played this morning against #5 in the nation, UND should be able to notch a win against these solid teams. Just don't get complacent! Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted August 24, 2012 Author Posted August 24, 2012 Got the Texas State radio going for the second game. Set 1: TX ST 25-17 Set 2: UND 25-13 Set 3: UND 25-15 Set 4: UND 25-18 That's a good win for the girls and a nice bounce back after playing USC very tough. Quote
Teeder11 Posted August 25, 2012 Posted August 25, 2012 UND ladies beat Texas State 3 sets to 1 for first victory of the year! Quote
Teeder11 Posted August 25, 2012 Posted August 25, 2012 UND took fourth set 25-18! The ladies rolled three straight to take the match. Next up host Texas A&M tomorrow at 12:30 p.m. Quote
82SiouxGuy Posted August 25, 2012 Posted August 25, 2012 Congrats to Ashley and the team. They have played well today, and have a big game tomorrow. Quote
Teeder11 Posted August 25, 2012 Posted August 25, 2012 Congrats to Ashley and the team. They have played well today, and have a big game tomorrow. Agreed! The Texas State radio guy is clearly impressed with UND's showing earlier today against USC, as well. Quote
homer Posted August 25, 2012 Posted August 25, 2012 Congrats ladies. Great day overall. Its going to be an exciting volleyball season. Quote
Let'sGoHawks! Posted August 25, 2012 Posted August 25, 2012 Great job ladies! Ready for bigtime. Beat A&M! Quote
andtheHomeoftheSIOUX!! Posted August 25, 2012 Posted August 25, 2012 Is there going to be radio for today's game? Thanks. Quote
Teeder11 Posted August 25, 2012 Posted August 25, 2012 I don't know about radio, but it will be video streamed via http://www.undsports.com/liveEvents/liveEvents.dbml?SPID=6387&db_oem_id=13500 I will check for radio opportunities as well. Quote
Teeder11 Posted August 25, 2012 Posted August 25, 2012 If anyone is broadcasting it over the radio, it is not being promoted, so I would assume only live stat updates and video stream are the options for this one. Quote
Teeder11 Posted August 25, 2012 Posted August 25, 2012 UND video stream doesn't work for me... I am able to watch it via Aggie TV's 12th Man Network from the Texas A&M site. UND drops first set 25-21. Quote
