Nov 09, 2023 | Women's Volleyball
MEMPHIS, Tenn. – The University of Memphis volleyball team heads back out on the road this week as they travel to Tulsa to take on the Golden Hurricane Friday, Nov. 10.
The Tigers (8-19, 4-11 AAC) are searching for a win to break their current six match losing streak in conference play.
"Heading to Tulsa we have a single match to prepare for this week. Tulsa has a very good offense and one of the better attackers in the league. They are always tough to play at home," head coach Sean Burdette shared. "We will need to serve and defend well and get point scoring production from all our attackers. Tulsa (13-14, 6-9 AAC) is looking to get back in the win column after falling to UTSA 3-1 on Friday followed by a 3-0 loss to the Roadrunners on Saturday."
The Golden Hurricane are hitting a .202 clip and averaging 12.7 kills per set. They are led offensively by AAC kills leader Kayley Cassaday with 512 on the season. Cassaday averages 5.50 points and 5.12 kills per set.
Two Golden Hurricane have tallied 80 or more blocks on the season, Arianna Mongare (93) and Camryn Lingenbrink (80). Marta Pecalli has recorded 4.14 digs per set to lead Tulsa defensively.
Memphis is averaging 12 kills per set while putting up 1.6 blocks per set. The Tigers are fourth in the conference in service aces tallying 153 this season. Rylee Busse sits second in the AAC with 39 aces on the season, averaging .41 per set.
Two Tigers have tallied 200 or more kills on the season so far, Clara Bednarek leads the team with 204 followed by Tabytha Toelke with 200.
Abigail Schlueter leads Memphis with 3.61 digs per set with Toelke at 2.54. Bednarek tops the Tigers with 86 blocks so far this season with Flynn following behind with 52.
The match will be available to stream on ESPN+ and live stats will be available on memphisstats.com.
