Women's volleyball team...grace under pressure

SC's ladies volleyball team showed why it is one of the country's very best over this weekend.

Friday, SC drew probably the toughest draw in the NCAA tournament, playing a very strong Hawaii team on its home court, and came back to win in 5 sets. Then, on Saturday, the Trojans were once again down 2-1 when they rallied to beat Pepperdine and advance to the final four next week in San Antonio.

SC will play Illinois on Thursday night. If successful, the Women of Troy will meet either UCLA or Florida State come Saturday. If they can manage two wins, SC will win its ninth women's national title and first since 2003.

This year's team has met every challenge during the season, but this past weekend may be the singular greatest achievement, thus far. Trojans everywhere can be very very proud of this team and its significant successes.. Fight On, WOT.
