Volleyball Hosts Spring Tournament this Weekend
The Youngstown State volleyball team is in the middle of its spring practice season, and the Penguins will host a six-team tournament this weekend in the Stambaugh Stadium gymnasiums.

YSU will host defending Horizon League champion Cleveland State, Buffalo, Gannon and Wheeling Jesuit, and a team of Penguin volleyball alumni will also participate in the tournament. Play will begin at 10 a.m. and conclude around 5 p.m. Fans are invited to attend, and admission is free.

Cleveland State finished 23-7 in 2012 and won the Horizon League regular season and tournament titles. Buffalo was 10-18, Gannon was 29-6 and Wheeling Jesuit was 38-3. The YSU alumni planning on attending are Ebony Barbosa, Kelsi Bitter, Ruth Boscaljon, Karla Everhart, Amanda Gray, Brittany Grove, Dana Leslie, Tasha Miller (Reid) and Kaitlin O’Hara.

This will be the second weekend of spring competition for the Penguins. They won eight of the 12 sets they played last weekend against Duquesne and Robert Morris.

"We passed the ball extremely well last week, and we served the ball tough but had too many errors," YSU head coach Mark Hardaway said. "In the spring, it is all about getting better and working on new things. This team is working hard and continues to get better. They are hungry to improve on what they accomplished this past fall. Practices are becoming very competitive, and I really believe this group can do some really good things next fall."
