Volleyball Schedule is Completed

The same day the Big East released the home and away slates for the basketball conference games, one of my favorite USF sports announced the finalization of their schedule. The volleyball team will be kicking off 2011 with a trip to Albuquerque on August 26th for matches against New Mexico and New Mexico State. They return home September 2nd for the USF Volleyball Invitational which includes teams like Bowling Green and Bethune-Cookman. They go away for the rest of the month, and come home to play conference games against Rutgers and Seton Hall in the first weekend of October.

The only strange part of the schedule is that traditional late-season, "why are we playing them?" game, where the ladies will host Florida A&M on November 23rd, three days after the Big East tournament ends.

Speaking of teams in Florida, the Bulls will have five matches against in-state teams. They'll host Bethune-Cookman on Sept. 4, then go to Orlando to play FAU and UCF in the UCF invitational the following weekend. In mid-October, the girls will take a break from conference play and road trip to Fort Meyers for a match against Florida Gulf Coast. They then of course close their schedule with a final match against A&M. For more information, you can go ahead and view the whole volleyball schedule here.
