NCTA Volleyball Team Starts Season

NCTA got off to a rocky start for their 2011 campaign with a home loss to Faith Baptist Bible College. The Lady Aggies fell at home in a thrilling five set match by scores of 25-17, 10-25, 25-13, 23-25 and 11-15. Coach Jeremy Sievers said, “I am proud of the way we came out in our first set and set the tone for the match. Our intensity did drop a little in the second match and again in the fourth, but that is something we can correct. I was proud of the way the girls fought Saturday and didn’t give up until the end. There are a lot of positive things we can take away from this, and we should be able to build on this game.”

NCTA was led by Sheyna Huddle of Neola, Iowa, with ten kills and the Van Ryswyk sisters, Jordyn and Kalli of Glenville, Minn.,who both had seven kills. Nichole Hornyak of Sutherland, Neb, had 18 assists and ten digs for the match. The libero position, filled by Karla Freudenburg of Madison, Neb., had a team high 17 digs over the five sets. Freshman outside hitter Chelsea Altena of Hyannis, Neb., had seven kills, seven digs and three ace serves. Sophomore setter Abby Sybrant of Bassett, Neb., had eight assists and ten digs.

The Aggies will have a busy week of games, traveling to McCook, Neb., to play at 7:00 on September 1. On September 9 NCTA will be home to play Nebraska Christian College at 7:00 and home again on September 10 to play host to the alumni of NCTA Volleyball at a time yet to be determined.
