Wichita State opens volleyball season with Katy Dudzinski sliding into bigger role

Wichita State volleyball coach Chris Lamb returns to a familiar place with Katy Dudzinski, the start of a season in which he intends for her to play a major role.

“I want to get my most powerful kids out there and see if you can play your best volleyball that way,” Lamb said. “Sometimes the better-skilled kids win out.”

This, he believes, is the season that intention sticks, the season in which Dudzinski’s skills catch up with her physical talent and he can’t keep her off the floor.

The Shockers open the season on Friday against Iowa State in the Iowa State Challenge and faces No.
