Texas A&M head coach Laurie Corbelli, who is entering her 23rd season at the helm of the Aggies, returns 11 letterwinners -- including all six starters and the libero -- from last year's team that went 21-9, advanced to the NCAA tournament for a fourth consecutive year and was No. 22 in the final national RPI rankings. In addition, she welcomes freshman Kaitlyn Blake, a 6-2 middle blocker from Allen, Texas (Allen High School), who enrolled at A&M in January and will be making her first appearance in the maroon and white.
The Owls, coached by Genny (Wood) Volpe who was a senior on Corbelli's first Aggie squad in 1993 and served as an assistant coach on Corbelli's staff from 2001-03, are coming off one of their best seasons in school history, finishing 23-10 in 2014 to tie for the fifth most wins in program history.
The match against Rice is the first of three competitions the Aggies have scheduled during the spring. On Saturday, April 11, A&M heads to Houston to compete in the F.A.S.T. Complex Collegiate Invitational. The Aggies conclude their spring season Saturday, April 18 at the Lone Star Classic College Showcase at the Dallas Convention Center Arena.
