Wichita State volleyball drills down to recapture out-of-system confidence

Wichita State volleyball coach Chris Lamb eliminates one of his favorite drills in midseason to save wear and tear on bodies.

Off Tight Over Over is back. A loss to Missouri State and a date with Northern Iowa convinced Lamb to return the drill to his practice schedule.

“It’s a pricey drill — you get a lot out of it, but you pay a lot for it,” Lamb said.

Off-Tight puts everybody in a scramble, designed to acclimate attackers to bad-ball, or out-of-system, opportunities. In a five-match win streak, the Shockers dominated offensively. A week ago, the Shockers committed a season-high 27 attack errors in a 3-1 loss to Missouri State.
