This tournament also improved the individual statistics of the team. Good, the lone senior, proved her leadership with 293 kills and 583 digs for the season. Bemis, an outstanding asset to the team, contributed 247 kills and 423 digs. Engelbert led the team in blocking with 59,32 of which were solo. Walters assisted the hitters a total of 890 times throughout the season. These individual efforts, along with their teamwork, proved to be successful for the Lady Lions. Good’s efforts at the tournament let her slide past Carrie Grzejka, who had the career record for kills with 1027. Good set the new record 1 above Grzejka with 1028. Good also has the career record with 1621 digs. Seniors Jen O’Lare and Lisa Sanders lead the team. There are four juniors on the team, as well as four sophomores. Six freshmen made the team. The men’s team made it to the NCAA’s Elite Eight last season and finished the year with a 26-4 record. Still many questions arise about the team. There is a core group of experienced players that could help maintain a high level of success. If the team were to make the postseason this year it would be the fifth year in a row. “We are very young. The veterans will have to play well until we gain some experience," stated Coach Dave Niland. Ashley Orris is the only senior on the team. Matt Keith is one of three juniors. There is one sophomore and ten freshmen that made it onto the 2000-2001 squad. The men’s team also plays a scrimmage on Saturday versus Guelph on Saturday.
