FAMILY, FANS, ALUMNI & FRIENDS: Happy Halloween! The season is in full swing and at the time of this newsletter, the team is sitting right where they expected to be. Currently first in the GLIAC South, and one of the top four seeds at the recent Midwest Regional Crossover event, the team is poised to make a second half run at the GLIAC title and an NCAA berth. There are still some BIG matches yet to be played at the Matthaei, so we are hoping to see you in the stands. Take a look at the schedule above. The regular season ends with the annual Senior Day match on Saturday, November 11th. Lets fill the Matthaei and show this hard working group a great day! WE appreciate our Families, fans, and alumni—so the evening before Senior Day is our annual Family night—where we hope to acknowledge the support that YOU give to our program...hope you can attend!! Richardson Earns GLIAC Player of The Week Junior Hailey Richardson (New Boston, Mich. / Huron) was named the GLIAC South Division Player of the Week as announced by the league on September 25th. She powered the Warriors to a 3-0 record, including a five-set thriller at Grand Valley State and sweeps at Purdue Northwest and Davenport. Richardson finished with 44 kills (4.00/set), 34 digs (3.09/set) and posted a .246 hitting percentage. In the comeback victory over the Lakers, she tallied a carer-best 24 kills and earned her third career 20-kill performance. Richardson also collected a double-double as she notched 15 digs on Tuesday. The New Boston native earned her fifth double-double of the season at Davenport on Saturday with 13 kills and 15 digs.
