Lots of locals are starring on an unbeaten Northampton CC volleyball team

http://blogs.mcall.com/groller/ FROM KEITH GROLLER Often overlooked, or sometimes unfairly disparaged, the two area community colleges do a great job of giving local kids an opportunity of continuing their academic and athletic careers while they're still figuring things out. And, the tuition costs give the kids a chance to get an education without burying themselves in debt for most of their working lives. I have written a lot about the Lehigh-Carbon Community College and Northampton Community College sports progams over the years and some of them have done exceptionally well. The women's volleyball team at NCC, coached by well-known area baseball coach Adrian Yaguez, has been perfect this season. The Spartans are now 15-0 after beating Division II Harcum College in straight sets on Wednesday night, 25-8, 25-6, 25-16 in Bryn Mawr. NCC has won 45 of the 47 sets it has played this season. This is a strong volleyball area as evidenced by two state championships last year -- the Parkland girls and the Becahi boys. And the quality play certainly extends to the collegiate ranks. Here's NCC's roster: 1 Dania Otero-Negron Fr. DS 5-0 Roberto Clemente Charter Allentown, PA 2 Lindsey Kizer Fr. L 5-2 Nazareth Nazareth, PA 3 Ashley McCauley Fr. S 5-4 Bethlehem Catholic Bethlehem, PA 4 Kelly Yagerhofer So. OH 5-6 Northampton Northampton, PA 5 Barbara Dimon Fr. MH 5-10 Pine Grove Pine Grove, PA 6 Neian Ortega Fr.
