Split Conference-Opening Week Memphis split its first week of American Athletic Conference play, winning 3-2 at Cincinnati, then falling 3-1 to an East Carolina team that was coming off a 3-1 loss at Cincinnati. Memphis also split its opening week of conference play last year before starting a four match winning streak. Back Your Bags Memphis will play a bulk of its conference road matches in the next month. The Tigers will play six of the next eight matches on the road, including this weekend’s trip to the Northeast. Memphis opened conference road play with a 3-2 thriller at Cincinnati and looks to continue its strong conference road record. Last year, Memphis won nine conference road matches, including 3-1 wins at both Temple and UConn. Weekly Honor for Agomuo Sophomore outside Oluchi Agomuo was named to the American Weekly Honor Roll on Monday after setting a pair of career highs last week. In the win at Cincinnati, Agomuo tied a career-high with 19 kills, one of which sparked a 7-0 run from 13-8 down in the fifth set to win 15-13. In the defensive showdown with East Carolina, Agomuo posted 21 digs, also a career high. The 21 digs is her first career 20-plus dig outing.
