Trinity defeats UW - Eau Claire in three sets.  Terrific volleyball and TU seems to be in stride early in the season.

Besides #1 UW-EC, Trinity beat #6 Berry and #24 Transylvania this weekend ... and have yet to drop a set.   Given their significant front-line losses to graduation last season you'd have to say the team's ahead of schedule.

The fun continues next weekend as Trinity heads to Atlanta to take on the previous three national champions (UWEC won last year):  Johns Hopkins, Emory, and Juniata.

At the halfway point of the SCAC season, #2 Trinity (16-2) is 8-0 in SCAC play and had not lost a set in conference until Southwestern took one from them last weekend.  Colorado College (13-6) has unexpectedly dropped three matches so far; the other surprise is Texas Lutheran (19-5), alone in second place with a 7-2 mark after defeating CC for the first time in school history last Friday.   Southwestern (10-8) has recovered nicely from a difficult non-conference schedule and sits between TLU and CC at 6-2.

Trinity pulls off the upset of #1 Claremont-Mudd Scripps!  3-2 sets.

Go Tigers!
