Rams Stretch Conference Winning Streak to 57

Fresno City College Head women’s Volleyball coach Tracy Ainger-Schulte stepped on Fresno City’s campus in the fall of 2007, and the Rams have dominated the Central Valley Conference ever since.

In her nine years here Ainger-Schulte as the FCC coach has coached 5 All-Americans, 7 All-State Players, 7 Conference MVPs. Yet that doesn’t much to her if her girls don’t graduate from FCC and become successful players at other schools and more importantly successful off the court.

They’ve won 58 straight conference games their last loss dating back to the 2011 season vs Reedley. Praise she doesn’t take on herself but gives praise to the group of players she’s coached in her tenure here. As a coach, she doesn’t coach for the awards, doesn’t look at the accolades she’s receives at the end of the year, she coaches for her players

“It speaks volumes of the caliber of players we’ve had come here,”said Ainger-Schulte. “I feel pretty proud of the coaches we’ve had come in and help develop the program.”
This dominance over their conference can only mean one thing. In the nine years here the brand of FCC volleyball has become one of the marquee names in the state of California.

“To be winning like this with local kids, I couldn’t be more pleased year in and year out,” said Ainger-Schulte. “The girls here have set the standard for players coming in after them.”
With a new group of player this year the Rams continue to dominate. Players like Freshman Outside Hitter Jenna Goldsberry (Clovis West) who leads this year’s group with 155 kills.

“I knew after high school I wanted to continue playing volleyball and to be able to play for a school like this is an honor,” said Goldsberry,

The Rams have won their conference eighth straight season. They are looking for their ninth with a 10-0 conference record, a 16-4 overall record. They have four games remaining to see what this group of players (including 11 freshman) is made of. The only thing standing in their way is themselves.

After dominant performances over Reedley and COS (winning a combined six sets to zero). The Rams have four game remaining before the playoffs start and getting to 61 straight conference wins.

“It’s been a total team effort everyone doing their part and doing the little things to win,” said Freshman Middle Blocker Alexis March.

The Rams have won 63 consecutive home conference matches as well.

“If we keeping working on the small things in practice and ask ourselves every day, “Are we getting better?” said Ainger-Schulte. “And do everything to ensure everytime we step on the floor we’re better than the last time.”
