Minor League Transactions

This installment collects all transactions involving minor league players, i.e. those not on 40-man rosters, for the period June 20 to July 15. As always, transactions are conveyed by Major League Baseball.

The abbreviation that follows player listings refer to minor league level: Triple-A (AAA), Double-A (AA), High-A (A+), Low-A (A), Rookie-level Complex League (R) or Dominican Summer League (DSL).

Players categorized as being “outrighted to the minor leagues” were designated for assignment, cleared waivers and then sent outright to the minor leagues, typically to Triple-A. Previously outrighted players have the right to elect free agency.

Purdue volleyball vs Baylor NCAA tournament final score, game result, next

Published

8:25 pm ET December 5, 2025

When is Purdue volleyball’s next game? Purdue volleyball next game in Sweet 16. Who does Purdue volleyball play next?

Aaron Ferguson

Barring an upset, the Boilers are headed to Pittsburgh, the No. 1 seed in their quadrant. Times for next weekend are to be determined, and Purdue will know its opponent late Saturday night. Florida punched its ticket with a sweep of No. 7-seed Rice in an upset, and the Gators will play either No. 2 SMU or Central Arkansas.

It may set up a potential rematch with SMU, which Purdue beat 3-1 on a neutral court.

The Longhorns celebrate after winning the game against Florida A&M during the first round of the NCAA Tournament at Gregory Gymnasium in Austin, Friday, Dec. 5, 2025.

The Longhorns celebrate after winning the game against Florida A&M during the first round of the NCAA Tournament at Gregory Gymnasium in Austin, Friday, Dec. 5, 2025.

Mikala Compton/Austin American-Statesman

Texas volleyball, with its first No. 1 seed in three years, began what coach Jerritt Elliott hopes is a three-week journey through the NCAA Tournament Friday with a resounding sweep over Florida A&M Friday at Gregory Gymnasium.

But the competition will significantly stiffen Saturday when the Longhorns (23-3) face defending national champion Penn State in a second-round meeting. The eighth-seeded Nittany Lions (19-12), which beat South Florida 3-1 in the first game Friday at Gregory Gymnasium, have endured a rocky season that included the September departure of All-American setter Izzy Starck because of mental heath concerns.

But Penn State still has a championship pedigree that includes eight national titles, and the team still has an All-American attacker in 6-foot-6 Kennedy Martin.

“It’s one of the storied programs we have,” said Texas coach Jerritt Elliott, who’s led the Longhorns to three of their five national titles. “Obviously, two tradition-rich programs in the sport, and that makes it great for TV and great for our fans. We’re excited to be part of it.”

Based on how they played against overmatched Florida A&M (14-17), the Longhorns look primed for the challenge. Rattlers coach Gokhan Yilmaz said a Texas defense powered by a record-setting performance by Emma Halter proved more impressive than the array of Longhorn hitters led by Torrey Stafford (13 kills).

 “I think their defensive effort was great,” he said. “In a match where everybody knows it would be a lopsided, they didn’t just hang around. They were going after every ball. That’s really impressive to see.”

Halter led that defense with 25 digs, which set a school record for most digs in a 3-set match. 

“Honestly, it felt really good from earlier today in warm-ups,” Halter said. “I was just like, ‘I’m kind of feeling it today.’ It’s tournament time. It’s live or die, and so I’m trying to get every ball.”

Torrey Stafford ended with 13 kills, and the Longhorns got contributions from across the lineup in an easy first-round sweep. Up next? Defending champion Penn State.

FAMU has more hitting errors than kills in this match as Texas continues to work through its bench and eye the champs in a second-round match Saturday. Whitney Lauenstein, one known as “Big Hit Whit” during her time at Nebraska, has four kills on five swings and three blocks off the bench. Texas leads 2-0.

Too much size, too much talent from Texas, which takes a 2-0 lead. Penn State is in the cheap seats watching, but I’m not sure what the Nittany Lions can glean from this match. Texas leads 2-0.

Whitney Lauenstein has been getting some run late in the season for Texas, and she fires a pretty ball. Her first kill of the match leads to another Rattler timeout. Texas leads 1-0.

A service ace from Torrey Stafford caps a quick 3-0 spurt by Texas, and FAMU takes a time out. Texas leads 1-0.

No drama in set one. Torrey Stafford paces Texas with five kills, Ayden Ames has three kills and three blocks, and Emma Halter tallied a whopping 10 digs.

Ayden Ames is having her way at the net for Texas with three kills on three swings and three blocks, but it’s the diving saves from Emma Halter and Rella Binney that really get the crowd going.

That last post may have jinxed FAMU. Texas keeps swinging away, Abby Vander Wal comes off the bench for three quick kills, and Texas is on a 6-0 run.

FAMU is hanging in there early. The Rattler are making Texas work for its kills, and that’s all you can do as a big underdog.

Penn State, the defending national champion, shook off a first-set loss and beat South Florida 3-1 and will face either Texas or Florida A&M Saturday at 6:30 p.m. in a second-round matchup. The Nittany Lions (19-12) have endured a rocky season that included the in-season departure of All-American setter Izzy Starck because of mental heath concerns, but they flashed their firepower against South Florida. Texas and Florida A&M will start at 7:08 p.m.  

The matchup between Texas and Florida A&M will likely start after its scheduled time of 7 p.m., based on the current battle between Penn State and South Florida. The Longhorns and Rattlers need their allotted warm-up time, so their match will start approximately 30 minutes after the conclusion of Friday’s first match at Gregory Gymnasium. Penn State just took a 2-1 lead after winning the third set.

PITTSBURGH, Pa. — The University of Michigan volleyball team swept eighth-seeded Xavier 25-19, 25-15, 25-23 on Friday (Dec. 5) in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament at the Petersen Events Center.

Michigan (22-10) was led by Allison Jacobs, who tallied a match-leading 19 kills on a .326 hitting percentage. She was the only player who recorded double-digit kills in the match. Ella Demetrician had nine kills, including Michigan’s final two and Serena Nyambio hit .583 with eight kills on 12 swings. Maddi Cuchran tallied four service aces to become just the fifth Wolverine in program history with four aces or more in an NCAA Tournament match. Morgan Burke and Camille Edwards led the U-M offense to a .287 hitting percentage, with Burke recording 17 assists and two aces while Edwards had 18 assists and one ace.

A kill from Nyambio opened the match, but Xavier (26-5) responded with a kill. The Wolverines used a kill from Jacobs and an ace from Cuchran to take the lead. Xavier tied the set at five and six, but U-M kept the Musketeers from taking the lead. Michigan followed with a 4-1 run, led by an ace from Burke and a block from Nyambio and Cymarah Gordon. Xavier brought the set to within one at 10-9, but a Nyambio kill ended the threat and jump-started four straight Michigan points. A block from Gordon and Jenna Hanes put Michigan up 15-11 going into the media timeout. The Musketeers took two of the next three points out of the timeout, and Michigan followed with a 5-2 run with kills from three different players and an ace from Burke to go up 21-15. Xavier took four of the next five points to force a Michigan timeout. Out of the timeout, Jacobs recorded a kill followed by a block from Hanes and Gordon to reach set point. The Musketeers called their second timeout of the set, and out of the timeout, Jacobs ended the set with a kill for a 25-19 set one win.

Xavier started the second set with two quick points to take an early lead, but it was all Michigan after that. A 5-0 run led by Cuchran, who recorded her third ace of the match, put the Wolverines ahead 8-3. After the teams traded points midway through the set, U-M went on a 4-0 run to build a 15-7 advantage, but Xavier countered with a 4-0 run of its own. A Nyambio kill and Musketeers attack error forced Xavier’s second timeout of the set, trailing 17-11. After the timeout, Michigan took eight of the final 12 points, with a kill from Demetrician finishing off the set 25-15.

In the third set, the Wolverines jumped out to an early lead, once again 8-3, led by service runs from Edwards and Jacobs. Xavier hung around and tied the match at 11 before taking the lead. A kill from Gordon tied the match at 12 and Cuchran’s fourth ace put Michigan back in front. From there, neither team held a lead bigger than two points the rest of the way, with the final 14 points alternating back and forth. Demetrician tallied the final two Michigan points as U-M took the third set 25-23 to advance to the second round.

The Wolverines will take on either top-seeded and No. 4-ranked Pittsburgh or UMBC on Saturday (Dec. 6) at 7 p.m. in the second round of the NCAA Tournament at the Petersen Events Center. The match will be streamed live on ESPN+.
