Leadership and communication is something that Suekalena Tafao, setter, demonstrates as she sets her teammates up for one kill after another.

Tafao summed up the win in three words

“It was quick,” Tafao said.

That is how fast the Warriors have been taking care of its opponents as they have won 15 straight sets.

The Warriors went on dominating Cerritos in three sets, 25-16, 25-14, 25-13, to improve its record to 16-4 and 10-1 in the conference play.

Tafao led the way with six kills, nine digs, two blocks and 80 assists; sophomore Nigeria Owens, middle blocker, added 14 kills and two blocks.

Tafao said it was quick and pretty much summed up the win in three words.

“We didn’t make a lot of mistakes, we forced them to make errors,” Tafao said.

Assistant coach Jessica Juarez said she praises Tafao and is seeing her become more of a leader.

“I’m very impressed with her (Tafao),” Juarez said. “She is being a leader she is running the court communicating really well.”

The Warriors are not just winning games; they are dominating opponents and they have not lost a set since Oct. 17 against Mt. San Antonio College.

“We are playing a lot better. Tarryn is playing more consistent,” Le Valley Pattison, coach, said. “Sueka is much more in control things.”

Pattison said that the team has developed its skills and ability to work together.

“We are looking a lot more fluid, more control and making plays to help the team,” Pattison added.

The Warriors are good enough to put certain players in different positions during the games.

“We are a really versatile team; we can put anyone in any positions,” Juarez said.

“She (Pattison) changed the lineup. Tarrryn played right side hitter, and Elise played outside hitter and it’s worked out well,” Juarez said.

A lot of that credit goes to the Warriors’ coaching staff.

“We try to understand the EC personnel that is coming in,” Pattison said. “We try to get everyone playing on the same page and everyone has a pretty strong work ethic.”

Juarez said that the program that Pattison runs is incredible with the weight training, the strengthening and conditioning.

“You can tell the players respect her and they are tuned in and ready to work hard,” Juarez said.

The Warriors are looking forward to taking on two of the top teams in the conference tomorrow.

“We really are looking forward to the upcoming games; it’s going to be a battle with (Mt. SAC and LBCC), and it should be a lot of fun,” Pattison said.

“We’re excited,” Pattison said. “Hopefully, we’re peaking at the right time.”
