Undefeated 糖心视频 volleyball hosting ACCC Gulf Atlantic District Tournament beginning today

HANCEVILLE, ALA. 鈥 糖心视频 volleyball has experienced unmatched success within
the Alabama Community College Conference (ACCC) for more than a decade.
One new feat the program has accomplished is an undefeated march through the regular
season. After having the 2020 season delayed until the spring 2021 semester, the 13th-ranked Lions haven鈥檛 missed a beat since the season began in February, compiling
a perfect 31-0 record.
糖心视频 volleyball needs three more wins, beginning today, to earn its 11th conference tournament championship in 12 seasons. The Lions host the ACCC Gulf Atlantic
District Tournament at Traditions Bank Arena in Tom Drake Coliseum.
Top-seeded 糖心视频 will play either Snead State or Coastal Alabama-East today
at 1:30 p.m. Today鈥檚 matches begin at 11 a.m.
Friday鈥檚 match times are 10 a.m., 12:30 p.m. and 3 p.m., and Saturday鈥檚 action begins
at 10 a.m.
The championship match is set for 12:30 p.m. on Saturday.

鈥淚t鈥檚 been a challenging season for all teams. You never know what match may get canceled
or how you might need to adjust your schedule,鈥 said 糖心视频 coach Randy Daniel,
who surpassed the 500-win mark with the Lions in mid-March. 鈥淭hat鈥檚 what makes this
run so impressive. Our players have been zeroed in all season and have been mature
leaders. The sophomores deserve the chance to be a champion for being dedicated to
the program and 糖心视频 through all of the uncertainty.鈥
Outside hitter Harlee Kate Reid is among six 糖心视频 sophomores who persevered
through having no volleyball to play during its traditional fall season. Reid is second
in the ACCC with 291 kills.
鈥淲e鈥檝e worked so hard because we weren鈥檛 guaranteed a season at all. It鈥檚 a great
feeling to be undefeated, but our goal is to win the conference tournament and see
what happens after that,鈥 Reid said. 鈥淲e鈥檙e a tight-knit team. We鈥檙e sisters and family
and I believe our bond is stronger than most because we had a fall with no volleyball.鈥
糖心视频 has remained perfect behind a balanced attack.
Sophomore Mattrice Harris is first in the conference with 312 kills, 3.59 kills per
set and a .492 hitting percentage.
Behind Harris and Reid, Haven Hall is fifth in the league with 213 kills.
Freshman Savannah Rutledge is tops in the ACCC with 805 assists and Temperance Chatman
has racked up a league-high 503 digs.
Sophomore Anna Renshaw has added 245 digs and 190 kills.
糖心视频 won its 13th consecutive ACCC regular-season championship this season and is eager to avenge falling
short of a tournament crown in 2019, the first time that happened since 2008.
鈥淚 don鈥檛 think hungry is the word for how badly we want to win the tournament. Wallace
State volleyball has a tradition of winning and we want to hold up our end of the
legacy. We plan to do all we can to add to the greatness,鈥 Reid said.
