"All the Honor and Glory goes to God and I thought last night was a great way to end the AAC regular season with a good team win! Have to give Alex Sanchez some recognition as he broke the school record for digs in a match with 23! Previous record was 22.
We have a couple of very strong non-conference matches before going into our post season tournament and we are hopeful they will prepare us for a strong showing come tournament time. Senior Night is tomorrow and we hope our RU fans/family will come out and support the guys!"
