For a team of any caliber, 10 straight wins is an uncommon achievement that would be celebrated with the utmost pleasure and satisfaction.
For the Wisconsin volleyball team and its head coach Kelly Sheffield, it’s a sobering realization of how far they’ve come as a team after they won their 10th straight match over No. 16 Ohio State in straight sets (25-21, 25-16, 25-21).
“We didn’t [pull away in games] early in the year at all,” Sheffield said. “When it got down to the end of sets, we were actually getting outscored and that hasn’t been the case recently.
