The DePauw women's volleyball team is gearing up for its final tournament of the season this weekend, the North Coast Athletic Conference Tournament.
As of now, the Tigers are 24-5 overall, as well as 6-2 in conference. Their most recent accomplishments were at Benedictine University this past weekend in Lisle, Ill., where they went 3-1, losing only to Elmhurst College in three quick sets.
The weekend overall was a big accomplishment for the Tigers.
"Our biggest accomplishment this past weekend was our game against the University of Chicago," said sophomore Lauren Falotico. "They're a [nationally] ranked team with a lot of talent, but we played our own game and had great teamwork. We completely controlled the pace of the game and won in three games."
The three-game quick win seems to be a pattern for the Tigers. They hope to continue that.
Their first game at the NCAC tournament will be against Oberlin College on Friday, who is 11-17 in their season, a large deficit compared to DePauw's record.
"For the NCAC tournament we just need to go into each game with confidence and start each match strong," Falotico said. "If we can control the pace of the game and keep the momentum going, we'll be successful ... We're definitely ready for this weekend."
