Greyhounds to Make 20th Straight GLVC Championship Tournament Appearance

EAST PEORIA, Ill. – Fresh off its first 20-win season in six years, the UIndy volleyball team will head to the EastSide Centre in East Peoria, Ill., this weekend for its 20th consecutive trip to the GLVC Championship Tournament.
 
The Greyhounds last won the league tournament title in 2013, head coach Jason Reed's first season at the helm.
 
UIndy earned the fourth seed in this year's event, and will square off with Drury for the second time in six days when the two meet on Friday evening at 6:30 p.m. The Greyhounds downed the Panthers in four frames last Saturday afternoon, with Katie Furlong leading the way with 18 kills.
 
Rockhurst earned the top seed in the tournament this season and are scheduled to face Missouri S&T in Friday's quarterfinal finale. On the other side of the bracket, second-seeded Lewis will battle travel partner Illinois Springfield, while third-seeded Missouri-St. Louis faces Bellarmine.
 
Last season, Rockhurst defeated Drury to claim the GLVC championship and earn the league's automatic-qualifier to the Midwest Regional.
