Volleyball starts off strong

The Mountaineers volleyball team has gotten their new season underway, getting off to a strong 3-0 start at the UNC Asheville Tournament as well as defeating Wake Forest on the road in an exhibition matchup.

The Mountaineers went for a rough ride in 2017, finishing with an overall record of 12-20 and 6-10 in Sun Belt play. However this was a great improvement from the 2016 season, which saw only four wins in 29 games played.

The team returns nine players from last season, including their three kills leaders in outside hitters sophomore Lexi Kohut, redshirt junior Melissa McMath and sophomore middle blocker Kara Spicer.
