The Bulldog Battle (@ The Citadel) Robert Morris Invitational UMBC Tournament (@ UMBC) Panther Challenge (@ Pitt) Northeast Conference Match Northeast Conference Tournament NCAA Tournament
In their first week of NEC action on the road, Robert Morris earned its first conference victory with a 3-0 win at FDU, then dropped a 3-0 decision to league leader Sacred Heart. The Colonials boasted their best team hitting percentage (.286) on the season at Fairleigh Dickinson, and topped the Knights in kills (45 to 30), assists (41 to 28), digs (59 to 47), service aces (6 to 0), and total team blocks (4.0 to 2.0). Robert Morris opened set three on an 8-2 run to set the stage for a 3-0 sweep. RMU led by as many as 11 points, 20-9, after a kill from Brianna Frakes, assisted by sophomore Holly Brennan. FDU made one final push and claimed five of the final seven points in the set on a 5-1 run, but the Colonials had already amassed too large of a lead and secured the match win with a kill from Taylor Lord. RMU trailed Sacred Heart 2-0 in the match heading into the third set, and the Pioneers continued to charge ahead, as they opened the final frame on an 8-3 run. The Colonials brought the Pioneers streak to a brief pause on a kill from Dunivan, but Sacred Heart remained persistent and gradually widened the gap. SHU eventually claimed the 3-0 match victory when they stole the third set by 14 points, 25-11. STARR’S STATEMENTS
On the team’s performance at FDU... “We accomplished what we wanted to do. We wanted to serve tough and cut down on our errors and I think for the most part we did that today. We averaged right around 15 kills a set, dug almost 20 balls a set, and hit at a pretty high percentage. Any time that you can come out and win a game like that on the road, fairly efficiently, serves as a good day. I thought Taylor [Lord] had a really solid match. She served well and was really efficient. When we can get that kind of clean production from our outsides, we’re going to have pretty good success.” On struggles at Sacred Heart... “We didn’t do too much very well tonight. When we followed the game plan, we were able to score. We weren’t able to get into any kind of rhythm. They served us tough, and we didn’t respond very well. It’s back to the drawing board to see if we can find something inside ourselves that will motivate us to compete at a higher level.” ABOUT ROBERT MORRIS
The Colonials collected six first-place votes to earn the top spot in the NEC Preseason Coaches’ Poll. RMU qualified for its 17th consecutive NEC Tournament last season, extending the conference’s longest active streak. In each of those 17 seasons, the Colonials have posted a winning record in league competition, which stands as the longest such streak of any NEC member, past or present. Additionally, Robert Morris advanced to its first NCAA Tournament since 2003 and sixth trip to the “Big Dance” overall. The team posted its best overall winning percentage (.594) under Starr in 2015.

MAKING HISTORY With the first 11 of her 12 kills at FDU last weekend, senior Arden Fisher moved to fourth place all-time in individual career kills (1,114) at Robert Morris. She is now 34 kills short of overtaking third place on the all-time list. NATIONAL RADAR Senior Arden Fisher currently ranks No. 18 in the nation in digs per set (5.20) after spending the first two weeks at number one. As a team, Robert Morris ranks eighth in the nation in digs per set (17.47) and leads the NEC in the same category. TRENDING Senior Arden Fisher has posted a double-double in 15 of 18 matches played this season. Her streak of 11 matches with a double-double to start a season marks the longest season-opening streak in Robert Morris history dating back to 2003. She leads the Colonials in kills (224) and digs (364). Sophomore outside hitter Taylor Lord has recorded a double-double in nine of her last 15 outings. She is averaging 2.27 kills and 3.65 digs per set. WE CAN DIG IT Three Colonials rank among the top-10 in the NEC in digs per set: No. 1 Arden Fisher (5.20), No. 6 Taylor Lord (3.65), and No. 10 Allie Yurkovich (3.29). SUCCESS UNDER STAR The Colonials posted their best overall winning percentage (.594) under head coach Dale Starr last season. Starr is two wins shy of his 100th victory as head coach of the Robert Morris volleyball program and six victories short of his 200th career win at the Division I level. PRESEASON TOURNAMENT SUCCESS Robert Morris capped the 2016 preseason tournament portion of the schedule 6-6 (6-8 overall including stand-alone matches at Kent State and versus Youngstown State), marking the best record of its kind under head coach Dale Starr. For the second consecutive season, the Colonials went undefeated in at least one preseason tournament. ALL-TOURNAMENT TALENT Senior Arden Fisher has been named to three All-Tournament Teams this preseason (2016 Bulldog Battle at The Citadel, The Maddie Bingaman Memorial Tournament at UMBC, and the Panther Challenge at Pitt.) Sophomore Taylor Lord joined her on the Bulldog Battle list of standouts, while sophomore Brianna Schmid earned All-Tournament honors at the UMBC tournament. HITTING THE BOOKS Senior middle blocker Leah Dunivan achieved a new career high with nine total blocks in the Colonials’ win over Bucknell. Her nine block assists on the night rank tied for third all-time in the Robert Morrs individual game record books. CLEAN SWEEP Robert Morris completed a sweep of its Robert Morris Invitational opponents with a shutout of Buffalo, a 3-1 win against Coppin State and a five-set victory over Bucknell. This marks the second straight season that RMU went undefeated in at least one preseason tournament (Rose Hill Classic, 2015). IT’S A NEW DAWN, IT’S A NEW DAY... ...And the Robert Morris Colonials are feeling good. RMU returns eighty-five percent of its 2015 NEC Championship team from one season ago, including the NEC Tournament MVP, two 2015 All-NEC Second Team selections, two members of the 2015 NEC All-Tournament Team, and the league leaders in assists per game and blocks per set. RMU was voted No. 1 in the NEC Preseason Coaches’ Poll, earning six of eight first-place votes. CHALLENGE ACCEPTED Senior outside hitter and three-time All-NEC Second Team selection Arden Fisher continued her tradition of summer travel after last year’s trip to Costa Rica with Beyond Sports, and participated in the 2016 European Global Challenge, hosted by Bring It Promotions. The 10-day adventure led her and the Team BIP U22, USA squad and 31 other international teams to stops in Vienna, Austria, and Maribor, Slovenia, before settling into the small town of Pula, Croatia, where the tournament took place. At the conclusion of competition, Fisher was named to the U22 All-Tournament Team. SETTING THE STANDARD Last season, April Krivoniak set a new standard for academic accomplishment, as she became the first-ever studentathlete in Northeast Conference and Robert Morris history to be named NEC Scholar-Athlete of the Year in two nonrelated sports (volleyball and indoor track and field). Krivoniak carries a 3.99 grade point average as a biomedical and mechanical engineering major. Over the summer, she completed a biomedical engineering internship in Virginia with Computerized Imaging Reference Systems, Inc. (CIRS). She helped construct tissue phantoms, which mimic human tissue and are used for testing or as teaching tools in conjunction with radiology equipment. 2015 NEC TOURNAMENT CHAMPIONS! The Robert Morris Colonials claimed the 2015 Northeast Conference Tournament crown after they topped No. 3 seed Bryant, 3-1, in the semifinals, and upset the No. 1 seed and three-time defending tournament champion and regular season victor LIU Brooklyn, 3-1, on the Blackbirds’ home court. This is the eighth conference tournament title for RMU and the first under head coach Dale Starr in his six appearances. Senior April Krivoniak was named the Most Valuable Player of the Tournament. Junior Brianna Frakes and graduated senior Kristin Thompson were also named to the All-Tournament Team. A HISTORIC RUN Robert Morris qualified for its 17th consecutive NEC Tournament last year, extending the conference’s longest active streak. In the last 17 seasons, the Colonials have posted a winning record in league play; the longest such streak of any NEC member, past or present. Over that timespan, RMU has gone 155-39 in conference play: 1999: 9-0 2004: 8-0 2009: 11-5 2014: 12-2 2000: 8-1 2005: 7-1 2010: 13-3 2015: 11-3 2001: 8-1 2006: 5-3 2011: 10-6 2016: 1-3 2002: 9-0 2007: 6-2 2012: 13-3 2003: 8-0 2008: 8-0 2013: 8-6

Dale Starr enters his seventh season as the head coach of the Robert Morris University volleyball team. Starr led the Colonials to their eighth overall NEC Tournament title in 2015, the first-ever in six appearances with Starr at the helm. RMU received an automatic bid to the 2015 NCAA Tournament, where the Colonials fell to the Ohio State Buckeyes in the First Round. Robert Morris’ 19 wins earned in 2015 are the most achieved in a season under Starr. RMU finished second overall in the conference and led the league in digs per set and total blocks. In 2014, Starr saw his team compile its best conference record during his tenure (12-2). He led the Colonials to their first NEC Tournament title match since 2010 and had three student-athletes earn All-NEC accolades. RMU paced the league in blocks (2.41 per set; 2.92 in conference). The Colonials also finished second in digs, opponent hitting percentage and hitting percentage. In a four-set match at Sacred Heart, RMU broke the single-game program record for total blocks and block assists with 21.5 and 39, respectively. In 2013, Starr guided a senior-less RMU team to their 15thconsecutive NEC Tournament berth, finishing the conference slate with a record of 8-6. The Colonials led the conference in digs and Starr had a student-athlete make an All-NEC team for the fourth straight season. On Oct. 19, Starr earned his 200th career win with a three-set sweep of St. Francis (Pa.).

With a senior-heavy roster in 2012, Starr led the Colonials to their 14th-consecutive NEC Tournament behind the strength of 13 regular-season wins against NEC foes. Despite a slow start in early-season tournaments, Starr led RMU to a thrilling five-set victory over West Virginia, the first victory over a Big-XII team in program history. Two members of Starr’s 2012 squad would earn All-NEC honors for the second-consecutive season, while one student-athlete would lead the NEC in blocks per match. The highlight of the 2011 season under Starr had to be the three-set sweep of crosstown-rival Pittsburgh. The win was the first victory over the Panthers in program history. Behind a 10-6 record in the NEC, the Colonials would earn a postseason berth for the 13th-consecutive time, while two of Starr’s student-athletes would earn All-NEC accolades. In his first season with Robert Morris, two of Starr’s studentathletes claimed first team all-conference honors in 2010 and a total of four claimed weekly honors from the NEC. Some of the highlights for Starr’s first season occurred off the court due to the Colonials’ gaudy academic performances. Starr guided his squad to a victory over then six-time defending NEC champion LIU-Brooklyn in the conference tournament semifinals. After eliminating the Blackbirds in a thrilling, five-set match, RMU competed in its 13th league championship match, extending its own conference record.

The Bulldog Battle (@ The Citadel) Robert Morris Invitational UMBC Tournament (@ UMBC) Panther Challenge (@ Pitt) Northeast Conference Match Northeast Conference Tournament NCAA Tournament
In their first week of NEC action on the road, Robert Morris earned its first conference victory with a 3-0 win at FDU, then dropped a 3-0 decision to league leader Sacred Heart. The Colonials boasted their best team hitting percentage (.286) on the season at Fairleigh Dickinson, and topped the Knights in kills (45 to 30), assists (41 to 28), digs (59 to 47), service aces (6 to 0), and total team blocks (4.0 to 2.0). Robert Morris opened set three on an 8-2 run to set the stage for a 3-0 sweep. RMU led by as many as 11 points, 20-9, after a kill from Brianna Frakes, assisted by sophomore Holly Brennan. FDU made one final push and claimed five of the final seven points in the set on a 5-1 run, but the Colonials had already amassed too large of a lead and secured the match win with a kill from Taylor Lord. RMU trailed Sacred Heart 2-0 in the match heading into the third set, and the Pioneers continued to charge ahead, as they opened the final frame on an 8-3 run. The Colonials brought the Pioneers streak to a brief pause on a kill from Dunivan, but Sacred Heart remained persistent and gradually widened the gap. SHU eventually claimed the 3-0 match victory when they stole the third set by 14 points, 25-11. STARR’S STATEMENTS
On the team’s performance at FDU... “We accomplished what we wanted to do. We wanted to serve tough and cut down on our errors and I think for the most part we did that today. We averaged right around 15 kills a set, dug almost 20 balls a set, and hit at a pretty high percentage. Any time that you can come out and win a game like that on the road, fairly efficiently, serves as a good day. I thought Taylor [Lord] had a really solid match. She served well and was really efficient. When we can get that kind of clean production from our outsides, we’re going to have pretty good success.” On struggles at Sacred Heart... “We didn’t do too much very well tonight. When we followed the game plan, we were able to score. We weren’t able to get into any kind of rhythm. They served us tough, and we didn’t respond very well. It’s back to the drawing board to see if we can find something inside ourselves that will motivate us to compete at a higher level.” ABOUT ROBERT MORRIS
The Colonials collected six first-place votes to earn the top spot in the NEC Preseason Coaches’ Poll. RMU qualified for its 17th consecutive NEC Tournament last season, extending the conference’s longest active streak. In each of those 17 seasons, the Colonials have posted a winning record in league competition, which stands as the longest such streak of any NEC member, past or present. Additionally, Robert Morris advanced to its first NCAA Tournament since 2003 and sixth trip to the “Big Dance” overall. The team posted its best overall winning percentage (.594) under Starr in 2015.

MAKING HISTORY With the first 11 of her 12 kills at FDU last weekend, senior Arden Fisher moved to fourth place all-time in individual career kills (1,114) at Robert Morris. She is now 34 kills short of overtaking third place on the all-time list. NATIONAL RADAR Senior Arden Fisher currently ranks No. 18 in the nation in digs per set (5.20) after spending the first two weeks at number one. As a team, Robert Morris ranks eighth in the nation in digs per set (17.47) and leads the NEC in the same category. TRENDING Senior Arden Fisher has posted a double-double in 15 of 18 matches played this season. Her streak of 11 matches with a double-double to start a season marks the longest season-opening streak in Robert Morris history dating back to 2003. She leads the Colonials in kills (224) and digs (364). Sophomore outside hitter Taylor Lord has recorded a double-double in nine of her last 15 outings. She is averaging 2.27 kills and 3.65 digs per set. WE CAN DIG IT Three Colonials rank among the top-10 in the NEC in digs per set: No. 1 Arden Fisher (5.20), No. 6 Taylor Lord (3.65), and No. 10 Allie Yurkovich (3.29). SUCCESS UNDER STAR The Colonials posted their best overall winning percentage (.594) under head coach Dale Starr last season. Starr is two wins shy of his 100th victory as head coach of the Robert Morris volleyball program and six victories short of his 200th career win at the Division I level. PRESEASON TOURNAMENT SUCCESS Robert Morris capped the 2016 preseason tournament portion of the schedule 6-6 (6-8 overall including stand-alone matches at Kent State and versus Youngstown State), marking the best record of its kind under head coach Dale Starr. For the second consecutive season, the Colonials went undefeated in at least one preseason tournament. ALL-TOURNAMENT TALENT Senior Arden Fisher has been named to three All-Tournament Teams this preseason (2016 Bulldog Battle at The Citadel, The Maddie Bingaman Memorial Tournament at UMBC, and the Panther Challenge at Pitt.) Sophomore Taylor Lord joined her on the Bulldog Battle list of standouts, while sophomore Brianna Schmid earned All-Tournament honors at the UMBC tournament. HITTING THE BOOKS Senior middle blocker Leah Dunivan achieved a new career high with nine total blocks in the Colonials’ win over Bucknell. Her nine block assists on the night rank tied for third all-time in the Robert Morrs individual game record books. CLEAN SWEEP Robert Morris completed a sweep of its Robert Morris Invitational opponents with a shutout of Buffalo, a 3-1 win against Coppin State and a five-set victory over Bucknell. This marks the second straight season that RMU went undefeated in at least one preseason tournament (Rose Hill Classic, 2015). IT’S A NEW DAWN, IT’S A NEW DAY... ...And the Robert Morris Colonials are feeling good. RMU returns eighty-five percent of its 2015 NEC Championship team from one season ago, including the NEC Tournament MVP, two 2015 All-NEC Second Team selections, two members of the 2015 NEC All-Tournament Team, and the league leaders in assists per game and blocks per set. RMU was voted No. 1 in the NEC Preseason Coaches’ Poll, earning six of eight first-place votes. CHALLENGE ACCEPTED Senior outside hitter and three-time All-NEC Second Team selection Arden Fisher continued her tradition of summer travel after last year’s trip to Costa Rica with Beyond Sports, and participated in the 2016 European Global Challenge, hosted by Bring It Promotions. The 10-day adventure led her and the Team BIP U22, USA squad and 31 other international teams to stops in Vienna, Austria, and Maribor, Slovenia, before settling into the small town of Pula, Croatia, where the tournament took place. At the conclusion of competition, Fisher was named to the U22 All-Tournament Team. SETTING THE STANDARD Last season, April Krivoniak set a new standard for academic accomplishment, as she became the first-ever studentathlete in Northeast Conference and Robert Morris history to be named NEC Scholar-Athlete of the Year in two nonrelated sports (volleyball and indoor track and field). Krivoniak carries a 3.99 grade point average as a biomedical and mechanical engineering major. Over the summer, she completed a biomedical engineering internship in Virginia with Computerized Imaging Reference Systems, Inc. (CIRS). She helped construct tissue phantoms, which mimic human tissue and are used for testing or as teaching tools in conjunction with radiology equipment. 2015 NEC TOURNAMENT CHAMPIONS! The Robert Morris Colonials claimed the 2015 Northeast Conference Tournament crown after they topped No. 3 seed Bryant, 3-1, in the semifinals, and upset the No. 1 seed and three-time defending tournament champion and regular season victor LIU Brooklyn, 3-1, on the Blackbirds’ home court. This is the eighth conference tournament title for RMU and the first under head coach Dale Starr in his six appearances. Senior April Krivoniak was named the Most Valuable Player of the Tournament. Junior Brianna Frakes and graduated senior Kristin Thompson were also named to the All-Tournament Team. A HISTORIC RUN Robert Morris qualified for its 17th consecutive NEC Tournament last year, extending the conference’s longest active streak. In the last 17 seasons, the Colonials have posted a winning record in league play; the longest such streak of any NEC member, past or present. Over that timespan, RMU has gone 155-39 in conference play: 1999: 9-0 2004: 8-0 2009: 11-5 2014: 12-2 2000: 8-1 2005: 7-1 2010: 13-3 2015: 11-3 2001: 8-1 2006: 5-3 2011: 10-6 2016: 1-3 2002: 9-0 2007: 6-2 2012: 13-3 2003: 8-0 2008: 8-0 2013: 8-6

Dale Starr enters his seventh season as the head coach of the Robert Morris University volleyball team. Starr led the Colonials to their eighth overall NEC Tournament title in 2015, the first-ever in six appearances with Starr at the helm. RMU received an automatic bid to the 2015 NCAA Tournament, where the Colonials fell to the Ohio State Buckeyes in the First Round. Robert Morris’ 19 wins earned in 2015 are the most achieved in a season under Starr. RMU finished second overall in the conference and led the league in digs per set and total blocks. In 2014, Starr saw his team compile its best conference record during his tenure (12-2). He led the Colonials to their first NEC Tournament title match since 2010 and had three student-athletes earn All-NEC accolades. RMU paced the league in blocks (2.41 per set; 2.92 in conference). The Colonials also finished second in digs, opponent hitting percentage and hitting percentage. In a four-set match at Sacred Heart, RMU broke the single-game program record for total blocks and block assists with 21.5 and 39, respectively. In 2013, Starr guided a senior-less RMU team to their 15thconsecutive NEC Tournament berth, finishing the conference slate with a record of 8-6. The Colonials led the conference in digs and Starr had a student-athlete make an All-NEC team for the fourth straight season. On Oct. 19, Starr earned his 200th career win with a three-set sweep of St. Francis (Pa.).

With a senior-heavy roster in 2012, Starr led the Colonials to their 14th-consecutive NEC Tournament behind the strength of 13 regular-season wins against NEC foes. Despite a slow start in early-season tournaments, Starr led RMU to a thrilling five-set victory over West Virginia, the first victory over a Big-XII team in program history. Two members of Starr’s 2012 squad would earn All-NEC honors for the second-consecutive season, while one student-athlete would lead the NEC in blocks per match. The highlight of the 2011 season under Starr had to be the three-set sweep of crosstown-rival Pittsburgh. The win was the first victory over the Panthers in program history. Behind a 10-6 record in the NEC, the Colonials would earn a postseason berth for the 13th-consecutive time, while two of Starr’s student-athletes would earn All-NEC accolades. In his first season with Robert Morris, two of Starr’s studentathletes claimed first team all-conference honors in 2010 and a total of four claimed weekly honors from the NEC. Some of the highlights for Starr’s first season occurred off the court due to the Colonials’ gaudy academic performances. Starr guided his squad to a victory over then six-time defending NEC champion LIU-Brooklyn in the conference tournament semifinals. After eliminating the Blackbirds in a thrilling, five-set match, RMU competed in its 13th league championship match, extending its own conference record.
