A few weeks ago on September eighteenth I, along with a group of friends, went to the second girls’ volleyball game of season in which our Stockton Ospreys were facing the Rutgers-Camden volleyball team. In all going to the game was fun; the Ospreys won and we got free Stockton memorabilia out of it.

We walked into Big Blue, the Stockton gymnasium, at about seven at night, as the game was about to begin. We were pretty excited because they were giving away free tee-shirts sometime during the game. We, as well as the other Stockton students, were pretty enthusiastic about the game, cheering for each player as she ran onto the court after being announced. The girls got ready and began. At first, our, or at least my, faith in our team was a little shaky since in the first set of the game the Rutgers-Camden team won in a close match of twenty-five to twenty seven. Even though it was a loss, Stockton, both players and fans, retained their good spirits for the second set and it payed off. The girls pulled out a solid win in their second set, much to the joy of the players and crowd. The fact that this was the set in which they gave away the tee-shirts also helped with crowd moral. The crowd seemed to be enjoying themselves since, even though most of the friends I came with came for the free shirt, they decided to stick around for the rest of the game because they were having fun. Continuing with their phenomenal playing, the girls on the team came out with a win in the third and then the fourth sets of the game, giving them an overall victory in the game.

I personally had fun at the game and it seemed like the rest of the crowd did as well. I would suggest that everyone should consider going to the volleyball games; they are exciting and enthralling for all who attend.
