HOWL CROWD

Last night on Wednesday Sept. 16th, IUE Volleyball team had a tough match against their opponent, Huntington University. We played Huntington at the Grace College tournament a few weeks back. We beat them in 4 matches. Last night was our second chance to prove we were better, and able to beat them for the second time. We started off with our pregame warmup. Then it was game time! We started the game off kinda slow for us. Huntington came out and took game one from IUE, but IUE was not going to let that happen again. The Red Wolves came out and won the second game. The next 2 games were back and forth. It came down to the fifth game, IUE had a come back on the switch of 7-8 with the victory. The Red Wolves kept the lead, and won the match. IUE Volleyball is 11-2 now!!!! The gym was not quiet at all; "The Howl Crowd" was very intense in the game. They were very supported for the IUE volleyball team and dressed for the occasion (see pic. for details :) )! The gym was packed and there were many people there to support us, and we appreciate it a lot! Our next home match is next Saturday, Sept. 26th!!!! Hope to see everyone there to support us!
