The first match for the 2015 Penn State Women’s Volleyball team isn’t until late August (this isn’t a tease — there is no official schedule yet), but at the post-season banquet for the 2014 Penn State Women’s Volleyball team, Head Coach Russ Rose announced the three team captains for 2015: 6-2 Sr. OH Megan Courtney, 5-6 Sr. libero/DS Kendall Pierce, and 6-4 Sr. RS/Opp. Aiyana Whitney. For those who are interested, we've posted an article looking at some of the accomplishments and statistics for all three, plus videos for each of them. Here's the link: www.dignittanyvolleyball.com/coach-rose-names-three-captains-for-2015-penn-state-womens-volleyball/We've also posted final (but unofficial stats for the 2014 team.

Three seniors. No surprise there. Actually, historically there have been Juniors and, I believe, even sophomores named as captains. Not always, but sometimes. |

If Kendall Pierce is not the libero it may get awkward, because you always want one on the court to communicate with refs, but with Courtney and Whitney being captains and on the court I am sure there will always be one out there.

I don't believe that will be a problem, whether or not Kendall is the starting libero. |

Actually I have found all 3 have very good communication skills and very personable. Libero can't be court capta in but rather captain of the backcourt....and PSU has a history of terrific leaders back there. |

Although she didnt have a full time DS role like Lacey, I thought Kendall was MUCH improved and seemed very poised when she did come in for Frantti.

Sharp as a tack NY. |

What a group of high quality down-to-earth ladies including Dominique Gonzales for predecessors. I get a warm fuzzy feeling thinking about 2015 VB Lions.  |

FYI, the libero IS allowed to be playing captain in the NCAA rule set.
