decades. The Vikings have

fo u r
n a tio n a l
championships and 10regional
cham pionships with 24 All-
America awards divided among
10 athletes.
Presently 12-9 on the season
and 5-1 in the Pacific W est Confer
ence, P.S.U. has been ranked in ev
ery Division II poll since its begin
ning (9 years).
O f the Vikings nine losses this
year, eight have come to teams cur
rently ranked in the top 10, and two
have come at the hands of the number
one ranked team. Currently the V i
kings are ranked 12th in the nation.
Second year P.S.U. head coach
Cathy Nelson has the tough job of
maintaining the Viking impressive
record and history of success. How
ever she appears nonpluss about her
first outing as a recruiter.
“We lost the core of our team

But we have some young players
returning, the freshmen who played
last year, six redshirts who are very
talented and what I feel is a great
recruiting class, but I’m very opti

mistic about our future Nelson says.
“Our strength should be our pow
er in the front row.
W e’re not going to be athletic as
last year, but overall we will have
more height, and should be an im
proved blocking team.
Nelson further states that “w e’re
a fairly young team, with one senior,
and a lot of people who haven’t played
in a while (red shirts and transfers)
Nelson says” I expect it will take a
while to get into a groove, and we
may take our lumps early on. Espe
cially with our difficult schedule, but
by the end of the season, we should
have progressed to the point to be a
tough team to beat.”
