It was a fun weekend and it was an overall team effort." The Lions started their roll in Wooster on the 22nd as they played Wooster and Otterbcin. The Lions showed a bit of what was to come in the tournament as they pounced on Wooster and defeated them in three sets.. The Lions fell to Otterbein in the next match, but moved on to Alfred and prevailed. The team has won five out of their last six and are in good overall health. They host their first ever tournament, the Lion Classic, on October 10. If they play like they did at Alfred, it will truly be a "classic." ■ - 1
