TJC sweeps TVCC
The win (25-19, 25-13, 25-10) gave the volleyball team its second conference victory on a day TJC dropped in the NJCAA poll from first to seventh.
The Apache Ladies took control of Game 2 from the beginning, taking advantage of TVCC serving errors and giving their offense a change to put together a six-point scoring spree at one point in the game.
The Lady Cardinals only managed a few more points before the Apache Ladies finished the game with a serve from Jordan McArdle that hit the top of the net and barely flipped over the edge for an ace serve.
By the time Game 3 rolled around, no amount of talking from Spain could motivate the TVCC team.
Shirley said she believes her players were more relaxed Wednesday night and better prepared.
The Apache Ladies (14-1, 2-0) are scheduled to play in the San Jacinto College tournament this weekend.
