Volleyball struggles against conference opponents

The volleyball team continues a losing streak in conference play after dropping the first two games of their American Athletic Conference play over the weekend. It marks the 22nd straight loss in conference matches — the worst streak in the team’s history.

Despite the poor team play, there are some promising young players who continue to elevate their game as the season presses forward. Freshmen setter Abby Irvine and sophomore libero Katie Karbo have stood out amid an otherwise lackluster season.

Irvine, a starter at the setting position, leads the team in double-doubles for the season with three under her belt.
