DUHAWKS BOLSTER ROSTER … A trio of newcomers aims to make an immediate impact for the Duhawks this season. Junior transfers Kara Kentner and Taylor Serrano are sure to be factors on the attack. Kentner led the National Junior College Athletic Association in hitting percentage as a sophomore, while also being named an All-American team and the Skyway Collegiate Conference Player of the Year. Serrano poses a problem in the middle for opponents with her hard swing and solid blocking ability, she has the tools to be a game changer. Meanwhile, freshman Haley Bergan solidifies the back row through her quick feet and stellar passing game.

TOUGH SCHEDULE AHEAD OF DUHAWKS … Loras is set to face off against five top-25 teams this season according to the AVCA Coaches’ Preseason Poll. Beginning this weekend with Washington University in St. Louis (No. 11), Loras will see UW-Stevens Point (No. 3), St. Thomas University (No. 5), UW-Whitewater (No. 18), and Cornell College (No. 24). Iowa Conference rivals Wartburg Collegeand Coe are receiving votes and will undoubtedly pose a challenge for the Duhawks.

DUHAWKS FALL IN PRESEASON TUNE-UP … On Friday, the Duhawks faced off against Upper Iowa University in exhibition action, falling 3-1. Despite the loss, the scrimmage provided Head Coach Jenna Ness to get a good look at her team against competition. “I was 5:00 PM really happy with our play,” Ness said. “The team played well in several 7:00 PM 7:30 PM different lineups and did a great job with on-ball blocking and setting.”
