EVANSVILLE, Ind. – With a unique spring season in the books, the University of Evansville volleyball team is set for a more conventional season as the Purple Aces embark on the 2021 fall campaign this weekend.

UE travels to Fort Wayne, Ind. to take part on the Purdue Fort Wayne Invitational. SIU Edwardsville will mark the opener on Friday morning before UE faces Kent State that afternoon and the host Mastodons on Saturday morning. Head coach Fernando Morales is not with the UE squad this weekend as he is coaching the Puerto Rico National Team as they compete for a spot in the 2022 Volleyball World Championship.
