Knights Volleyball Wins Record Setting #31 Victory over Naval Prep to Finish Regular Season 31-14

The CCRI Knights Women’s Volleyball Team set another school record yesterday with a thrilling three game sweep of Naval Prep 30-23, 30-23 and 30-24 to finish the regular season 31-14. Every game was extremely close even more than the scores would indicate as the Knights avenged a loss from earlier in the season to Naval Prep, however in that loss the knights were without Outside Hitters Kimiyo Garcia (East Providence, RI) and Stephanie Maxwell (Woonsocket, RI), while Libero Jasmine Bonanca (Swansea, MA) was hurt during the match. This time the Knights were fully loaded and that seemed to be the difference.

Each game was very closely contested as every time the Knights went ahead in a game Naval Prep would try trick plays to get themselves back in it but the Knights sniffed out those plays, because they had worked on defending those plays earlier in the week at practice. The play of the match was turned in the first game as Naval prep spiked a ball that was dug by Bonanca who dove keeping the ball alive but only about a foot off the floor traveling about 50 MPH then was kicked off the back of the leg of a sprawling Abby Hummel (Warwick, RI) up in the air before it was tapped over the net keep the point alive by Kayla Plante (Woonsocket, RI). Head Coach Ray Deangelis said "that was definitely a momentum shifter"

The Knights were led by April Oberhelman (Woonsocket, RI) who had two blocks, 24 kills and three aces, Abby Hummel (Warwick, RI) who had two blocks, six kills, two aces, three digs and 14 assists, and ill Kimiyo Garcia (East Providence, RI) was still able to contribute eight blocks and five kills, and Libero Jasmine Bonanca (Swansea, MA) who had 26 digs. As one game official said after the match "your Libero decided not to let a ball hit the floor" as he though that was the key to the tremendous victory.

Coach Deangelis said "this is the best team we have beaten all year, if we can play this way at the Districts we’re going to Nationals"

The Knights now look forward to the District Tournament to be played at Genesee CC November 5^th and 6^th against Region IXX champ Lackawanna CC and the winner of the Region III match-up between Genesee CC and Mercyhurst CC. The teams will play in a round robin on Saturday the third seed goes home while the top two will battle to see which team will go on to the Nationals. The Knights players will have the opportunity to give both Head Coach Deangelis and Assistant Coach Laurie Clark the ultimate birthday present with a birth in the Nationals, coincidentally both of their birthdays fall on November 6th.

Go Knights!!!

The Knights are gearing-up for the Northeast District Tournament where they will probably face the top seed in Region III the Tribunes of Monroe CC who are currently ranked #3 in the Nation. The Knight Tribune match-up looks to be an excellent game seeing as how Monroe won their first meeting this year at Monroe CC by the slimmest of margins 2-1 the Knights have payback on their mind. Since their last meeting, the Knights have beaten another top ten team #5 CCBC Catonsville which beat the Tribunes 1-0 on October 16^th.

CCRI Volleyball Win’s 29^th Match to Tie Program Record Deangelis gets Win #100!!!

It was an historic weekend for the CCRI Knights women’s Volleyball Team as they won their 29^th match of the season which ties the program’s best mark in history and establishes a new record since they have been in Division II. In addition to it being the team’s 29^th victory of the season it was Coach Ray DeAngelis’ 100^th victory of his career.

For the Weekend CCRI went 3-1 as they beat southern Maryland 30-21, 28-30, and 17-15, beat Dean 30-4 and 30-15, fell to Genesee 30-29 and 30-25, and beat Holyoke 30-12 and 30-7 to improve their record to 29-14 on the season to tie the program best mark.

In another interesting twist for the teams 29^th victory and coach’s 100^th the Knights players decided along with the coaches to let the team make their own line-up, insuring that everyone got involved. This was a true sign of team unity as many of the Nations statistical leaders sacrificed their stats to get everyone involved for the coach’s milestone 100^th win. They were truly U-Knighted!

The Knights look to establish a new school record for victories when they travel to Dean College on Tuesday at 7pm.

Knights Basketball Make Top 20 in Pre-season Polls

Both of the CCRI Basketball teams are ranked among the top 20 in the NJCAA National Polls

The CCRI Men’s and Women’s Basketball Team are ranked in the top 20 in the Pre-Season NJCAA Polls in Division II The Men are ranked #13 while the women are ranked #19. This is not surprising, coming after a season where for the first time both teams made their National Tournaments in the same year.

along with 6’6" Forward Brandon Gaillard (North Stonington, CT) and 6’4" Forward Jerome Hodge (Providence, RI). The Knights will also get some help in the form of their two new point-guards Ray Ross (Port Washington, NY) and Darby Brown (New London, CT). The Knights are poised to get back to the post-season with their defense first mentality and fast-breaking style. That is the Hallmark of Head Coach Dave Chevalier.

The CCRI Women’s Basketball team is ranked #19 which is an excellent feat seeing as how they have no returning starters. In addition, the one player that is returning who got significant playing time, Shermaine Farrior (Bronx, NY) who was an all-region selection last year will not be eligible until the second semester. However, the Knights do have talent in the form of 6’0" Forward Odessa Williams (Stratford, CT) who did not play much in the regular season, but she played very well playing a key role at the National Tournament. Although the Knights do not have as much height as they did last year, they do have much more team speed and will be looking to push the ball and play a swarming type of defense which is the type of game that Head Coach Cas Grygorcewicz likes to teach. Some of the incoming freshmen that should have an impact are: Point Guards Ana Sierra (Bronx, NY) and Lasheena Boyd (Stratford, CT), Guard Monet Johnson (Brooklyn, NY), Forward/Center Eszence Walker (Stratford, CT), and Forward Janay Perkins (Bronx, NY). The Knights will also get help from Australian import Renee Buck (Ft. Gully Victoria, Australia), Forward Jenny Kinney (Milford, NJ), and Forward Michelle Rhau (Cranston, RI), and Guard Michelle McNamee (Cranston, RI). Once they get to play together the Knights should give any team a run for their money.

Both CCRI Basketball teams are currently practicing and getting to know each other and how they play. Surely there will be many more names that will be making headlines this upcoming season.

The team has scored 77 goals and given up only five goals. The five goals given up have only been against top five NJCAA teams.

The NJCAA poll should be interesting this week.  Monroe CC got beat 1-0 by CCBC Catonsville, Catonsville lost to Young Harris 4-3.  CCRI has defeated Catonsville 2-1, and lost to both Young Harris and Monroe 2-1 in each contest which really could have gone either way.  There is a lot of parity in the NJCAA this year and CCRI is right in the mix!
