Sophomore outside hitter Lauren Ditteon
On all the IU sports supporting each other, including football coming to the Purdue match:
I think it was so awesome. You could tell when they came in, because they came in as a team. It meant a lot. I had goose bumps when I saw them all walk in. It definitely made me proud to be a Hoosier to see everyone coming here to support each other.
On her thoughts entering the weekend against Michigan and Michigan State:
It is definitely different going to other facilities and playing. When we do, we will be going as a team. We know what we can do and what we are capable of doing. We should be able to go 2-0 this weekend.
Freshman setter Jessica Batliner
On all the IU sports supporting each other, including football coming to the Purdue match:
The energy from the crowd and them just made us play better. They were so loud. It is cool when other teams come and support you.
On her thoughts entering the weekend against Michigan and Michigan State:
I feel like we are playing a lot better than we were at the beginning of the season. I think we can beat both of those teams. I feel pretty good about it.
