6 conferences in action on this Outrigger-less Friday.

Rockhurst outlasted Missouri S&T in a back-and-forth 5-set match. (Rockhurst Athletics)

Sorry for the inundation of newsletters yesterday. I’m not planning to do that to you all again today.

Number of the Day

28 - The Outrigger Invitational got off to a muted start due to the news that Friday’s matches would be canceled due to weather. That didn’t stop all of the teams from putting on a show from the service line. In the 6 sets played yesterday in Hawaii, there were a combined 28 aces. This is in comparison to the 49 service errors committed. That is less than a 2:1 ratio. Not too shabby.
