If and when the University of San Diego volleyball team starts their first practice this fall, it will be their first time on the court — their first time actually playing volleyball — in at least five months.
That would only be if practice started this week, and there is no indication of that happening following the West Coast Conference’s indefinite postponement of all fall competition this week. Which means, as head coach Jennifer Petrie explains, if the team can practice this fall, they will not just be picking up where they left off in the spring.
“We are going to have to collaborate with Mark Lamoreaux, our strength coach, and our athletic training staff to make sure we are doing everything possible to ease them back into play without going full force the first couple weeks,” Petrie said.
