The Rambelles split two games on the road a week ago. The ladies fell to Eastern New Mexico last Thursday before recovering late to beat Western New Mexico on Saturday. Head Coach Alesha Ellis gave her thoughts on her team’s performance over the weekend and what she expects from Lubbock Christian on Thursday. The Rambelles currently sports a 16-7 overall record and are 10-4 in LSC play. The Belles need to keep grinding out wins as they approach the end of the regular season if they want to return to the post-season again this year.

The injury bug continues to hamper the Rams this season and continues to be a contributing factor in several of the losses over the past few weeks. Despite this, many of the younger players on the roster continue to develop quickly as they are forced to play more and more. ASU is 15-6 overall and 10-5 in LSC play. The Rams have two tough matchups this weekend, and both are games the Rams lost on the road earlier in the year. Two wins on Thursday and Saturday would go a long way in pushing Angelo State toward another postseason berth.
Angelo State’s head coach, Vinay Patel, talked about the loss to Eastern and how tough the environment is in Portales, NM. He then discussed the importance of the win last Saturday and what he expects from Lubbock Christian and West Texas A&M this weekend.
