Entering 2019 season play, the Stony Brook women’s volleyball team had many reasons to be optimistic about their performance. However, a less than stellar start to head coach Kristin Belzung’s third season at the helm has raised questions about whether or not the Seawolves are capable of living up to expectations.
Stony Brook Volleyball used its enthusiastic energy to defeat the Hartford Hawks, 3-1 (25-18, 20-25, 25-17, 25-12) at Pritchard Gymnasium last Friday night.
The Seawolves were able to take the Stags to five sets, but they were not able to capitalize on their early lead. The Stags won the final two sets to end the game, 3-2.
“We just have to keep working hard,” sophomore middle blocker Taylor Wilson said. “We have to keep going, we have to push and we have to take wins when we can take them.”
“Our focus has been on improving since day one,” head coach Coley Pawlikowski said. “We’re getting better, we’re improving everyday. That’s all we can hope for.”
Taylor Wilson’s family came all the way from southern Indiana to watch Stony Brook face Binghamton in an America East volleyball match on Friday night. She did not disappoint.
An Alabama star has been shining for Stony Brook Volleyball. In her first year as a libero, freshman Kardasia Hitchcock has been a defensive beast for the Seawolves.
Poor defense led to the seventh sweep loss of the season for Stony Brook Volleyball, as the team fell to New Hampshire, 25-19, 25-15, 25-22, on Sunday afternoon.
The Stony Brook women’s volleyball team came out flat against Sacred Heart, losing in three sets Tuesday night at the Pitt Center in Fairfield, Connecticut.
Unfortunately for head coach Coley Pawlikowski’s Seawolves, the home Retrievers fought back to win the last two sets of the match at the Retrievers Athletic Center.
