Southern Illinois University’s volleyball team is gearing up for their first Missouri Valley Conference weekend with a two-game set in Iowa. The team is hoping to continue their momentum from a successful non-conference season.
The Salukis have had a strong start to the season with a 5-3 record, showcasing their talent and potential for success in conference play. Head coach wants his team to continue building on their strengths and improving their weaknesses as they face tough competition in the MVC.
They will be facing off against the University of Northern Iowa and Drake University in their first conference games. Both opponents are known for their strong volleyball programs, so the Salukis will need to bring their A-game to come out on top.
The team is led by junior outside hitter who has been a standout player so far this season. She leads the team in kills and is a crucial part of their offensive strategy. Other key players to watch include senior libero and junior middle blocker who have also been instrumental in the team’s success.
The Salukis are excited to kick off conference play and show what they are capable of against tough opponents. With their talent, determination, and teamwork, they have the potential to make a strong impact in the MVC.
Fans can follow the action and support the team as they compete in their first MVC weekend in Iowa. The team is looking forward to the challenges and opportunities that conference play will bring, and are ready to showcase their skills on the court.
