Pocatello, ID--The Idaho State volleyball team officially opened spring practice on Feb. 28. The spring slate features a tournament at the University of Utah and home matches against Salt Lake Community College and Northwest Nazarene University.

"We are very pleased with the great progress we have made in the past few months with weights, conditioning, and our individual skills training," Welch said. "The team has been improving with great strides. Starting our team practices this week will only accelerate the process. We have a great group of returning players who are committed to becoming their personal best this spring. We are working diligently to make that a reality."

The spring roster features seven returnees, including one senior, two juniors, and four sophomores. ISU's 2007 signing class will join the Bengals in the fall.

The first test of the spring season will be an April 14 tournament at the University of Utah. The Bengals will then host Salt Lake Community College on April 21 before welcoming Northwest Nazarene University on April 28. Both home matches will begin at 1 p.m. at Reed Gym.

Idaho State heads into the spring season after finishing the 2006 regular season campaign with a 10-20 overall record, and a 5-11 Big Sky mark. The team just missed qualifying for the 2006 Big Sky Tournament by a single point.

The Bengals will conclude their 2007 spring workouts on April 27.
