For this enrichment assignment I chose to attend to a Baruch Women Volleyball match this Saturday, October 12. The match supposedly started at 10:00 AM, which I really don’t know because I arrived late. The atmosphere was pretty quiet which really shocked me. I really thought there were going to be more people watching, to my surprise there were only few people watching. The Baruch team played very good because they had a good sportsmanship, despite the errors that their teammates made nobody would be mad or blaming on anyone. They won all sets, which was nice. Although there was a very intense moment when the team let go a bit, the away team started to catch them up, but in the end they got realized their mistakes and got serious about it again and won.
All the spikes were perfectly smacked, since they all passed the net and were points. The defense was also very good because they managed to work together as a team and their communication was also one of the main key to their win. Their serving were amazingly good since most if not all would hit the end lines, this will confuse the other team by making them think it will be out, but in reality it would land just in the tip of the line and make it their point. It was very obvious that the Baruch team was way much stronger and better prepared than the team of Lehman College.
I really wanted to go to one of their matches since I really wanted to join the volleyball team, but I didn’t apply for a position at the beginning of the semester because I wasn’t in the country for tryouts. Maybe next year i’m going join the team.
