Starting Off At Home

  • The Loyola University Maryland volleyball team will make its 2026 home court debut on Friday, September 4, when it hosts Towson University in a 6 p.m. match in Reitz Arena. The match will be the first of three overall this weekend, two that are part of a 12-match home slate.
  • Loyola makes the short trip down Cold Spring Lane to play at Morgan State University at 4 o'clock on Saturday afternoon before returning to Reitz Arena on Sunday for a 2 p.m. game versus Saint Peter's University.
  • Both home matches are slated to stream live on ESPN+.

Looking Back

  • The Greyhounds opened their 2026 schedule with a pair of games against Sun Belt Conference favorite James Madison University in Harrisonburg, Virginia, where the Dukes took both contests last weekend in three sets.

Addie Leads The Attack

  • Addie Lowe led the Greyhounds' attack in both matches last weekend at James Madison as the Kentucky native opened her second season averaging 2.67 kills per set while hitting .216.
  • The numbers check out with the end of her freshman season when she had 85 of her 89 kills in 2025 during the last 14 matches in which she played.

Big Dig Numbers As A Freshman

  • Addie Huber led Patriot League freshmen in digs and digs per set last season, racking up 407 total and 4.28 per set. Her digs per set mark was ninth-highest among NCAA Division I freshmen, and it was third overall in the conference regardless of class year.
  • Huber had 10 or more digs in 19 of the Greyhounds' 25 matches last season when she played every set as Loyola's starting libero.
  • She contributed 20 or more digs in nine of those matches with 25 or more in three.

Swinging Away

  • Three of Loyola's primary hitters return from last year in Morgan Crawford, Ava Nepkin and Addie Lowe. Respectively, the trio finished third, second and fifth on the team last year in total kills.
  • Nepkin made 20 starts and played in 24 matches, spreading 195 kills over 80 sets for an average of 2.44 per. Nepkin's offensive output and efficiency went up as the season went on. She led the team with 2.77 kills during Patriot League matches while hitting .122 during conference play to .104 overall.
  • Crawford is the Greyhounds' active career leader in kills with 477 in 75 matches over the last three years. She had 181 kills in 2025 while playing mostly on the right side, a career high that was one more than her 180 as a freshman in 2023.
  • Lowe came on during conference play with 85 of her 89 kills in the 14 League games she played. She had a season-high of 17 kills in the Greyhounds' five-set win over Navy on September 27. 
  • The trio were also the Greyhounds' top three in kills during the first weekend of 2026.

New Faces

  • Four freshmen and a transfer joined the Greyhounds' roster this fall for the 2026 season, complimenting 10 returners.
  • Madison Monahan comes to Loyola as a junior after spending the last two seasons as a setter at William & Mary.
  • Elise Bocanegra, Regan Haverstock, Abby Kim and Sydnee Peters are all new to the program as first-year collegians.

Up Next

  • Next weekend will feature another pair of home matches wrapped around a road contest. The Greyhounds will host George Washington on Friday, September 11, at 6 p.m. before welcoming George Mason on Sunday, September 13, at 2 p.m. In between, Loyola will make a trip to Georgetown on Saturday for a 4 p.m. contest.
