Emily Ferketic is working on a PhD while she's on the vb team. That's really impressive! This is from her bio (for 2021): "Ferketic is a physics major and maintains a 4.0 grade-point average"

Most people looking at the UMBC graphic on the broadcast would be like that 8-2 conference record for UMBC has to be an error - no, it's not. They play 10 conference matches in the America East. Somehow, a lot of teams play more than 10 matches in the first 4 weeks (non-conference) part of the season than UMBC played in conference season.
Wild.
