This weekend the Ladies have a tilt against Lamar in Commerce on Friday night, followed by a trip into Louisiana to face Northwestern State that Sunday. The regular season concludes the last week of October and then the conference tournament is the first week of November.

Volleyball-

The Lion Volleyball Women have won 2 of their past 3 matches heading into tomorrow night’s matchup against Southeastern Louisiana.
