Winston Salem, NC - Not only is the WSSU football team debuting this weekend but the WSSU volleyball team will open its season this afternoon. The Rams volleyball team, coached by Edric Poitier, were decent in the CIAA last season going 13-8. Overall, however, it was just 13-15.This afternoon the Rams will take on Coker College at the Queens Invitational in Charlotte.
Poitier, who begins his second season at WSSU, says that part of is plan is to play tougher non-conference teams to prepare for the CIAA. Last year the Rams were third in the CIAA.
“I am a little different in my approach, because I don't want my girls to get a false sense of security by playing a weaker teams and building up wins early,” he said in a press release. “We are going to play some tough completion, so hopefully they will see what it takes to win against that kind of team, so when we get to CIAA conference play, and at the end of the season come tournament time, we will know what it takes to win against that tougher kind of competition.”
