THE ALUMNAE FIT
- The Bulldogs are celebrating the historic 1984 Fresno State volleyball team that made a run to the Elite 8 in the NCAA Championship tournament.
- The uniforms include a white sleeveless top with "Fresno" written across the front in white block lettering over a red stripe and navy shorts.
- The back of the jersey features the last names of letterwinners in the program surrounding each athlete's number with the Mountain West logo on the left and the Green V logo on the right.
- The Bulldogs will wear these jerseys only once, on Saturday, October 12, as part of the Alumnae Day celebration.
- Fresno State is auctioning off their newly debuted Alumnae Day jerseys and bids can be placed at GoBulldogs.com/VBJerseyAuction24.
KASE IS ON THE CASE
- Kasey Purry was named Mountain West Defensive Player of the Week following her performance against Wyoming and conference leader Colorado State last week, the conference announced on Monday.
- This is the second consecutive week that a Bulldog has been named MW Defensive Player of the Week with sophomore Dionii Fraga earning the title last week.
- Kasey Purry was a brick wall for the Bulldogs this week with 11 total blocks out of the Bulldogs' team total of 18, including four solo blocks and seven assists.
- The fifth-year senior totaled 14 kills this week and averaged 1.56 kills per set.
- In addition, Purry also logged a service age and a dig.
WHY NOT YOU?
- The Fresno State volleyball team has launched its "Why Not You?" campaign, allowing members of the Red Wave to support the team with three sponsorship packages to choose from.
- In a historic run during the first season of the Rosen Era, a mantra of "Why not us?" became a public beacon for the Bulldogs. "Why not us?" was used to remind teamÂmates and supporters alike that someone had to win… it might as well be the 'Dogs.
- The success of the Bulldogs run in 2023 inspired the name "Why Not You?" to encourage the community to support the Fresno State Volleyball program.
- To contribute to the Why Not You? campaign, visit GoBulldogs.com/WhyNotYou, or call the Bulldog Foundation at (559) 278-7160.
