BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Fans will get a first taste of volleyball for the 2024 season as the Indiana program, led by seventh-year head coach Steve Aird, hosts its annual Cream and Crimson Scrimmage on Friday (Aug. 23) at 5:00 PM. Admission is free to the public and will be held in Wilkinson Hall.
Since the end of COVID-19, the Hoosiers have enjoyed a bigger crowd at Wilkinson Hall each year for its preseason scrimmage. Last year's event parlayed into a much bigger season attendance at volleyball matches. IU sold out Wilkinson Hall on two occasions including an attendance record of 2,725 against Purdue in October.
A familiar core of players will return to the friendly confines of Wilkinson Hall this season including seniors Camryn Haworth, Mady Saris and Morgan Geddes. Each member of the trio has played in 90+ matches in their career and has been part of the cornerstone of the program's rise up the Big Ten rankings.
New faces, such as middle blockers Madi Sell and Ella Boersema, will be welcomed to the IU crowd for the first time. These two players, in addition to defensive specialists Delaynie Maple and Emma Segal, should have impact roles for the Hoosiers.
IU will play two sets to 25 and one to 15 while balancing the teams to get a look at every player on the roster. This scrimmage, in the spot of a regularly scheduled practice, will wrap up fall camp for the Hoosiers before classes begin on Monday (Aug. 26) morning.
The regular season begins on Friday, August 30th for the Hoosiers at Kennesaw State. The following morning, IU will play a neutral site contest with Wichita State. The home opener for the Hoosiers will be on Labor Day (Sept. 2) with a matchup against UC-Davis (7:00 PM).
