Volleyball sets sights on elusive Sun Belt title in 2019

After falling short in last year’s Sun Belt conference tournament championship, App State volleyball looks to capture redemption in 2019.

“We’ve been there twice in the five years that we’ve been in the Sun Belt, and I’m sick and tired of being second. I want to win it,” head coach Matt Ginipro said.

The Mountaineers enjoyed a 22-win season in 2018, which led them to conquer the Sun Belt’s East Division and compete for a conference championship. Senior middle hitter Emma Longley was selected to the All-Sun Belt First Team, while junior libero Emma Reilly was awarded Second Team All-Sun Belt honors.
