PATRIOT POINTS
  • Freshman Olyvia Kennedy was named to the Hokie Invite All-Tournament Team after averaging 2.83 kills per set last weekend. Her best performance came against Wofford (Sept. 18) where she posted a match-high 17 kills at a .375 hitting percentage.
  • Senior Peyton Ehmke added a pair of impressive performances at the Hokie Invite. She recorded 14 kills (.294) and seven blocks vs. Wofford, and nine kills (.467) and two blocks vs. Virginia Tech. She ranks seventh in the A-10 in hitting percentage (.290). 
  • Freshman Ewelina Gacek notched a career-high four service aces against Virginia Tech. She currently ranks third in the league in aces per set (0.44). 
  • Mason wrapped up the non-conference portion of its schedule with a 2-9 record. The Patriots will look to snap a nine-match losing skid. 
  • The Patriots are 7-8 all-time against Duquesne. The two squads did not face off in 2020-21 due to the A-10 regional pods; but the Dukes defeated the Patriots on both occasions in 2019. 
  • Mason will look for its first win over Dayton in program history. The Patriots are 0-12 all-time vs. the Flyers since joining the A-10 in 2013-14. 

UP NEXT
Mason will travel to VCU on Friday (Oct. 1) and Davidson on Sunday (Oct. 3).
