WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Fans will have the opportunity to watch the No. 16 Purdue volleyball squad on Saturday afternoon in the team's final Black & Gold Scrimmage before competition officially begins. The intrasquad scrimmage will take place Saturday at Holloway Gymnasium at 2 p.m. ET.
No ticket will be required for entry.
Featuring seven new members to the 17-woman roster, including PrepVolleyball's No. 3 recruit class in the nation and the No. 1 overall recruit, the scrimmage will provide fans the opportunity to see the team in action before the nearly sold-out 2023 season begins next week.
Among the team's returners is preseason All-Big Ten selection Eva Hudson, who led the league in total points and kills last season. In her inaugural season, Hudson garnered AVCA All-America Honorable Mention, Big Ten Freshman of the Year, a first team All-Big Ten and Purdue Female Athlete of the Year. Additionally, veterans and All-Big Ten Second Team selections Maddie Schermerhorn and Raven Colvin headline the returning class.
