Volleyball

Just curious how your volleyball team typically does in the Horizon League? It looks like we had a good matchup with you guys a few hours back that we were fortunate to come out on top of. We typically are the benchmark for the Mid-Con the last several years in volleyball, and I was wondering what this win means for our future in the league.

Yeah, it seemed like it was a pretty hard-fought match. UIC was picked for 2nd place in the HL this year, so if you often field a team like this, then you will probably immediately compete for the HL title...

We lost a lot of starters from last year, so time will tell how we do overall this year with a lot of young players. Over the last 2 years, we have won 25+ games each season, and our Mid-Con record is 40-2.

Here's the breakdown of this year's HL V-ball teams...

Having won 7 of the last 9 regular season titles, and owning a 105-13 regular season record vs the HL over the last 9 years, I think it's safe to say Milwaukee is the Valpo of the HL in women's volleyball...
