Wow. If I had to give my impressions of volleyball's home opening weekend in one word, that word would be wow.

The team's improvement, the increased excitement of the fans in attendance as well as the visible enthusiasm of the coaching staff on the sideline were all worthy of note. During Friday night's match against Arkansas State, the Burrow was as loud as I have ever heard it for a volleyball match.

While the team may not have been victorious, those in attendance, including athletic director Pat Chun (pictured), had to note the passion that the team played with. The team finishes their three-match homestand tomorrow night against Bethune-Cookman, if you want to see their energetic play in person, you have one more opportunity this week.
