I told you those were All American numbers by Sarah Ray. Congrats on the award. I wonder when the last time they had a conference player of the week award?

It would be a heck of a story if they win this tournament, getting 3 tournament titles out of 4!

Today will be a though test for the Green Wave. They play at 1:30pm eastern today against a 8-2 team and then turn around and play at 7pm vs the host school FAU.
Roll Wave!

Just saw the scores. Great comeback win. Tomorrow vs Abilene should be an easy win. That will put them 8-4 for the preseason. 10-22 last year. Impressive start. Will be interesting how they do in Conference.

So volleyball won 5 matches total in 2014 and 10 in 2015. 8-4 to start this season. That is a very impressive turn around. Especially seeing all the career high's for those same players.
With 20 games to play in conference I suspect more conference AAC program 1st will happen as well. They finished last the first 2 years in the AAC.
Football and basketball may take a little longer but the same turn around is coming for them to.

Conference opener. Tough draw getting #2 Temple at their place and at UCONN. Tulane hasn't won at either place since joining the AAC. Looking forward to seeing how the team plays now. It's been a very impressive turn around. 1 win would be huge.

Wave takes match 22-20 in 5!

Tulane now 1-0 in AAC play.

When was the last time we were over .500 in conference play?

How does the team who was in last place last year (Tulane) beat the #2 team in the conference in the 1st conference match of the next season???

They are at win #9 after winning 10 last season. There is over 2 months left of the season!

Roll Damn Wave Roll!!
