This happened to me! It was my master slave cylinder to the clutch. I didnt pay much attention to it then it got to the point where I couldnt put it into gear at all. I also checked my brake fluid it was empty so I filled it up and helped a bit.

...guess since you have a hydrolic clutch yours doesnt have an adjustment knob like on LS cable trannys, sounds like a simple cable adjustment if it were. Does your clutch petal engage at the proper height off of the floor? Do you feel little resistence on the clutch as you push it until just before the floor? Check your clutch fluid first to eliminate the easiest of all possibilites. Good luck!

Change the tranny fluid and see how things go. It's easy and cheap.

a fluid change would be the most ideal route if u haven't changed it ever since u have had the car...i would start there first and if that doesn't work take it to a mechanic to get it looked at he can tell if the slave cylinder is going bad if it's not that then it's most likely the synchros

Just to clarify, the reason the clutch cylinders going bad would make the gears not engage properly is because it would prevent the pedal from fully releasing the clutch even when pushed all the way to the floor.
