The Boilermakers will have a much different look this season. Gone is All-American Sherridan Atkinson and so the Boilers no longer have a go-to point scorer. Despite the loss of Atkinson, a middle blocker, an outside hitter, and three defensive specialists this year’s team has a chance to improve on last year’s second round finish.
This preview will look at the roster, non-conference schedule, Big Ten schedule, TV schedule, the preseason Big Ten honors, and AVCA poll.
The season gets underway Sunday at 2:00 against Ohio University at home. Tuesday, Purdue hosts Ball State at 7:00; both matches are available on BTN+.
