LADY LIONS VOLLEYBALL - AN OVERVIEW

North Central Texas College began intercollegiate women's volleyball in the fall of 1988. This was the first time the school fielded a volleyball team in the school's 75 year history.
NCTC is a member of the National Junior College Athletic Association and plays in the North Texas Junior College Athletic Conference. This conference includes the following women's volleyball programs: Cisco Junior College, Hill College, North Central Texas College, Ranger Junior College, Temple College, and Vernon College. The Lions play in NJCAA Region V, which has historically been a very strong region for volleyball.

NCTC attempts to play in an up-tempo style that emphasizes multiple hitting patterns. Team strengths include tenacious defense and an offense that is not geared to any one specific athlete. Synergy -- the concept that the whole is much greater than the sum of its individual parts -- is a team cornerstone. NCTC players realize that team goals supercede individual goals.

The team's home court is Lion's Fieldhouse, which has become one of the loudest and most difficult venues to play in around the conference because of supportive friends, fans, family members and faculty who proudly support NCTC athletics.

North Central Texas College is located in Gainesville, Texas, along Interstate 35, about one hour north of the Dallas- Fort Worth Metroplex.
