Volleyball team to host exhibition scrimmage

The volleyball team will compete publicly for the first time this season when it hosts an exhibition scrimmage against alumni players Saturday at 6:30 p.m. at the Horejsi Family Athletics Center.

The Jayhawks, 13-16 last year, return five starters and 11 letterwinners overall. Four incoming freshmen complete the year’s roster. Junior Karina Garlington was fifth in the Big 12 with 3.66 kills per serve. Sophomore setter Nicole Tate returns after earning All-Big 12 Freshman Team honors. Seniors Melissa Grieb, Katie Martincich, Page Mazour and Brittany Williams return for their final season.

The Jayhawks are coached by Ray Bechard, who enters his 11th season as the program’s all-time winningest coach. His team’s last NCAA tournament appearance was in 2005.

Admission to the event is free.
