#9- College of the Ozark Volleyball

Number nine in this years countdown is the season of the College of the Ozarks Volleyball team

The Lady Cats went 29-16 on the season winning the Association of Independent Institutions Tournament and advancing to the National Tournament.  Coach Stacy Edwards’ Club was hardly done there.  They traveled down to San Antonio, TX to face Our Lady of the Lake University in the opening round.  After dropping the first two games the Lady Cats rallied to squeak out a 26-24 win in game three.  And, took the last two games to stun the home team and advance to Sioux City.

Things did not go well in Iowa as the Lady Cats were placed in a loaded pool and did not advance to bracket play.  But, that did not take away from a great season.

Haley Stallings and Rielly Dobbs were named NAIA honorable mention All-Americans.  (the two also garnered first team honors from the Christian Association).   Danielle Curnes,Brandy Glessner,and Sarah Kreul received recognition as Scholar Athletes.  Curnes is a graduate of Reeds Spring.
