Monday, November 8, 2010 | Volleyball
University of Florida head coach Mary Wise addressed the media Monday morning as part of the Gators' All-Sports Media Day.
Coach Wise shared her assessment of last week's pair of tough SEC road victories, as the Gators defeated Georgia 3-0 on Friday before they rallied from a 2-1 deficit to defeat Auburn in five sets on Sunday. For the weekend, the Gators out-blocked their opponents 30-15 and hit .308 over the two matches combined.
She then previewed this week's schedule, as the No. 1 Florida squad plays host to its final regular-season home matches of the 2010 campaign this weekend when it plays host to Mississippi State at 7 p.m. ET Thursday and Alabama at 1 p.m. ET on Senior Day Sunday. Thursday's match will be televised live by Fox Sports Florida.
Coach also discussed and fielded questions about the test at Auburn, on the senior class, on playing every match with a target on their back, on Mississippi State and on handling the pressure of the No. 1 national ranking.
