BOBCAT BITS CHISUM NOTCHES 800TH CAREER VICTORY
Texas State Head Coach Karen Chisum earned her 800th career victory with a convincing 3-0 sweep of Troy on Saturday, Nov. 15. With the win, Chisum is just the 13th coach to reach 800 wins in NCAA Division I history and the 22nd collegiate volleyball coach ever to reach it. Only nine other coaches across all three NCAA divisions have done it with one team like she did. She is sixth in career wins among active NCAA Division I coaches and 11th among active coaches in all of the NCAA. Her last landmark victory was her 750th win over Seattle on Sept. 29, 2012, and she won her 700th game with a 3-0 sweep over Prairie View A&M on Sept. 7, 2010.
ANOTHER SBC FRESHMAN OF THE WEEK
Texas State’s Jordan Kohl is earned her second Sun Belt Conference Freshman of the Week honor of the season. Her award makes it the the third one for Texas State this year as Lauren Kirch also won it. Kohl had an impressive week, leading the Bobcats in kills on an undefeated 2-0 week. She averaged 4.00 kills and 1.14 blocks per set with 28 kills and eight blocks for the week. She was devastating in a 3-1 victory over Georgia State with 18 kills on a .615 hitting percentage and followed it with 10 more kills in a sweep of Troy with a .421 hitting percentage. She added five blocks against Troy and three more against Georgia State to put together a strong week for the freshman from San Angelo.
MAHONEY RETURNS
Senior setter Caylin Mahoney saw her first action of the 2014 season on the road against UL Lafayette and South Alabama. After being named the Sun Belt Conference’s 2014 Preseason Setter of the Year, she suffered a broken finger that shelved her for most of the season. However, in her return, she led the Bobcats to a 3-2 victory over UL Lafayette for the team’s first win on the road since Sept. 27. After that, in a 3-1 victory over South Alabama, Mahoney was one kill shy of a triple-double and just three blocks and a kill shy of a quadruple-double. She’s quickly rounding back into form for the Bobcats and just in time.
BEST CONFERENCE START SINCE 2003
Texas State started Sun Belt Confernece play with a six-match winning streak this season. It is Texas State’s best conference start since 2003 when the Bobcats went on a 7-0 run to start conference play that led to an 18-2 Southland Conference record and a regular season conference championship. In 2000, the Bobcats went a perfect 20-0 through the Southland Conference. WWW.TXSTATEBOBCATS.COM
