SFA hosts four teams in Shelton Gym for day-long tournament
NACOGDOCHES, Texas - Well into its spring practice schedule, the Stephen F. Austin volleyball team has announced its first of two spring tournaments that are set to take place inside Shelton Gym.
Beginning at 10:00 a.m. Saturday morning, SFA will split off into two teams - purple and white - and welcomes Sam Houston State, Dallas Baptist, Tyler Junior College and Navarro College to Shelton Gym for a dual-court tournament. Admission to Saturday's day-long tournament is free and a full schedule can be located below.
The Ladyjacks are coming off a 2017 campaign in which they won the Southland Conference regular season title in order to earn the top overall seed for the Southland Conference Tournament. SFA returned to postseason play for the first time since 2006, too, when they were selected as one of the 32 teams that comprised the field for the 2017 National Invitational Volleyball Championship (NIVC) following the conclusion of the Southland Conference Tournament.
Included among the 14 letterwinners who return for SFA for its 2018 campaign are reigning All-Southland Conference First Team choices Haley Coleman and Danae Daron, 2017 All-Southland Conference Second Team pick Makenzee Hanna as well as 2017 CoSIDA Academic All-America Third Team honoree Ann Hollas.
