COUGS HOME-AND-HOME SERIES AGAINST EWU

Washington State women’s volleyball is set to host Eastern Washington University on Friday, September 6 at 7 p.m., before heading to Cheney for a rematch on Monday, September 9 at 6 p.m.

ABOUT WASHINGTON STATE

WSU continued to receive votes on the AVCA Rankings this week after working through some growing pains and going 1-2 in the team’s opening weekend at the Omaha Invite. The Cougs returned five from the 2023 team, including Logann Golden, Weronika Wojdyla, Katy Ryan, Emma Barbero and Lucie Blažková. In addition to the returners, nine newcomers have entered the program, including grad transfers Sage Brustad (Eastern Washington), Jaden Walz (Bowling Green) and Jade Warren (College of Idaho); junior transfers Keniya Cleveland (Feather River College), Taryn Vrieling (Idaho) and Kylie Wong (Arizona); and true incoming freshmen Italia Bernal, Haumea Marumoto and Breccan Scheck.

SERIES HISTORY

These two matches will be the 42nd and 43rd meetings between the two programs since 1976. Despite the regional proximity, this will be the first match between WSU and EWU in exactly 11 years, last playing on September 6, 2013 in a showing that saw the Cougars sweep the Eagles 3-0 in Pullman. The Cougs lead the all-time series 30-11, and have won nine of the last 12.

PRESEASON RANKINGS

Washington State volleyball received votes in the 2024 AVCA National Preseason Poll ahead of new Head Coach Korey Schroeder‘s first season at the helm. The team was also picked to finish sixth in the Preseason WCC Coaches’ Poll, while senior Katy Ryan was named to the 2024 WCC Preseason Team.

UP NEXT

WSU heads west to play in the Husky Invitational, taking on Washington on Friday, September 13 at 7 p.m. and UC Davis on Saturday, September 14 at 6 p.m.
