Can 5i2-557-62®| “The first conference match
_ will be an adjustment on offense
and defense,” Crum said. “The
ability of the teams in the Big 12
is greater than what we faced in
non-conference.”
The Aggies’ only losses in the
preseason were to No. 3 UCLA
and No. 13 UC-Santa Barbara.
A&M head coach Laurie Corbelli
sit id her team’s great performance
has boosted their confidence.
“We’ve had the opportunity to
experience a total team effort,”
Corbelli said. “Everyone has
been on the same intensity level,
and that will be a great asset as
we start the conference season.”
Corbelli said her only con
cerns for Wednesday are the
normal concerns: Lack of ag
gression on passing and reluc
tance on serving. However, she
is confident the team is focused
and prepared to play with a re
laxed intensity.
Aggie senior middle blocker/
outside hitter Melissa Munsch said
the team is always ready to start
the Big 12 conference. She said
the team is focused right now, but
plays better when it is having fun.
“We just have to let it come
naturally,” Munsch said.
CONGRATULATIONS!
