GAGE MAKES AN IMPACT Junior transfer Alyssa Gage fit right into the Owls’ rotation during the opening weekend. She posted a team-high .452 hitting percentage in the Owls’ three wins, including a perfect 1.000 (7-for-7) mark in the opening win over Dominican, which established a new SCSU single-game record (min. 7 kills). OFF AND RUNNING The 4-0 start for the Owls was Southern’s first since the 2009 season. That squad set a program record for consecutive wins to start a campaign with 13. IT’S BEEN A WHILE Southern’s win over Bridgeport on Sept. 3 was the Owls’ first over the Purple Knights since the 1999 season. JURGENS HITS HALF-MILENNIUM MARK Alexandria Jurgens tallied her 500th career kill in the win over Georgian Court on Sept. 3. JADUS MOVES UP THE CHARTS Leanna Jadus is now in fifth place in program history in career attempts with 2,426. Next up is Kristen Wynus, who had 2,671 as an Owl. A GOOD WAY TO START The Owls have a pair of four-game homestands during the course of the 2017 season, including the opening four contests. The second four-game homestand will take place later in September with matches against New Haven, Concordia, New York Tech and Wilmington.
