I think we're probably right in that 7-9 range right now. The loss to Pepperdine was terrible, because we won the first two out of three sets, and we had an early lead in the fourth and fifth sets. Letting them come back on the road when we take a 2-1 lead at home is a bad sign. And then Lewis beat Pepperdine.... Ouch.
After losing to Penn St. Lewis beats them in 5. With that said, both Pepperdine and Penn St. played Lewis the next day. I could see emotional and physical fatigue setting in after playing a 5 set game and then playing the next day. It doesn't excuse us from losing 2 games in 5 especially when one was being up 2-1 at home. I still think we're a better team than Lewis, but it's close. If we want to beat them, we'll need to figure out how to win the close games
