With the sting of the last two volleyball seasons still fresh in her mind, University of Wyoming junior Emily Lewis is ready to move on.

What the team had hoped would be a turning point for the program, a season-opening upset over then-No. 14 Ohio State in 2015, instead signaled seasons that fell short of the elusive breakthrough.

The Cowgirls were not selected for the NCAA Tournament in 2015, despite numerous teams with lower RPIs getting in, and finished last season losing four of their last five matches.
