The volleyball team will be looking to keep a 12-set winning streak alive against visiting Fordham tonight, after coming off a straight-set sweep of Atlantic-10 Conference rival Rhode Island.
Temple opened up conference play Friday with a 3-0 victory against
the Rams, despite a slow start that saw them fall behind 7-1 before rallying
back. The team hopes they can get off to a quicker start against Fordham.
"Do not start off the way we started [against Rhode
Island]," senior libero Chelsea Tupuola said. "Really focus in on
that first game. Momentum does carry out throughout the rest of the games and
sets, but we need to start off really strong, right then and there."
Last year the Owls lost both meetings against the Rams, each
by scores of 3-1. This time they just want to get out of the gates quickly.
"I think we're going to come up with a new cheer,
something, anything to get us pumped up," junior outside hitter Elyse
Burkert said.-Jake Adams
