This past weekend, The lady Raider volleyball team got to experience a great weekend of volleyball. On Saturday, the team traveled to Bloomington to watch the Indiana Hoosiers take on the Purdue Boilermakers at University Gym. Before the game, the team took a tour of campus and the athletic facilities, such as Memorial Stadium, Cook Hall and the student-athlete academic areas. At the game, many alumni members of the Hoosier volleyball team were recognized in honor for 40 years of Hoosier Volleyball. Sadly, the Hoosiers lost to Purdue in 4 games.
On Sunday, the ladies traveled to Louisville to watch the Louisville Cardinals take on the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. Before the game, the Louisville coach, Anne Kordes, invited the girls down onto the court, to meet and talk to the players. Coach Kordes took the team to the locker room and allowed the girls to take pictures with the players. The Cardinals swept the Fighting Irish 3-0.
Overall, the girls had an awesome time! This was a great experience for the team to bond and experience volleyball at a high level. Hopefully, the girls will take a few things back from this weekend and use them on the court!
The Raiders will be back in action on Tuesday at Norwell High School against the Knights.
