Blackbirds still looking for leadership after victory over Fresno State
On paper, the LIU Brooklyn women’s volleyball team is better this year than it was last, but reality might be a bit different. Head coach Kyle Robinson thought the Blackbirds demonstrated a lack of leadership during their victory over Fresno State on Wednesday.
“I thought we played really well for the first set and a half,” Robinson said. “I think we’re lacking a little bit of leadership that kind of keeps us pushing ahead, that says, ‘hey, we have to finish the job without taking a nap in between.’”
The Blackbirds (4-3) beat Fresno State three sets to one (25-19, 25-23, 23-25, 25-16) during their home opener on Wednesday, but struggled in the second set after a hot start and dropped the third set before they rallied in the fourth set for the victory.
