COMMERCE – The East Texas A&M University volleyball team has unveiled its full schedule for the 2025 season on Tuesday morning.
 
The Lions enter their fourth season in NCAA Division I, being eligible for the NCAA Tournament for the first team in the Division I era and serve as hosts for the Southland Conference Tournament.
 

In total, the Lions host 12 matches in the Field House during the regular season, including the Lion Invitational on August 29-30, which features East Texas A&M along with Providence, Little Rock, and North Texas.
 
“We cannot wait to get the season underway! Our non-conference schedule will give us the opportunity to test our team, as it is a tough schedule with three Power Four conference opponents and some teams that have a high RPI,” said third year coach Joe Morales.
 
“However, to get to the elite side, we must play tough teams as well as have some rest built in. We scheduled one match a day and in some cases only two a week outside of our home tournament.”
 
Prior to the start of the regular season, the Lions hold their annual Blue and Gold Scrimmage on August 20 (6:30 p.m.) and welcome UT Tyler for an exhibition match on August 23 (2 p.m.).
 

The Lion Invitational kicks off the season as East Texas A&M takes on Providence at 1 p.m. on August 29 and Little Rock at 7 p.m. The next day, the Lions play host to North Texas at 2 p.m. Full schedule of the six-match Lion Invitational can be found HERE.
 
In the second weekend of the season, the Lions head to Phoenix to take part in the Grand Canyon Classic, playing the hosts, Lopes, on September 5 at 7 p.m. mountain time, Northern Arizona at 3 p.m. mountain time on September 6, and Washington State at 11 a.m. mountain time on September 7.
 

Non-conference play continues September 11-13 with a pair of matches in Fort Collins, Colorado. East Texas A&M faces Colorado State at 6 p.m. mountain time on September 11. The Rams won the Mountain West a year ago and played in the NCAA Tournament.
 
The trip to Colorado concludes on September 13 against Notre dame at 1 p.m. mountain time. The final stretch of non-conference play starts with a two-match set in Coralville, Iowa, hosted by Iowa on September 19-20.
 

The Lions play Iowa at 6 p.m. on September 19 and Lindenwood at 2 p.m. on September 20. Lindenwood won the Ohio Valley Conference Tournament last season, but competed in the National Invitational Volleyball Championship as it is in the same re-classifying class as East Texas A&M. Both teams are eligible for the NCAA Tournament for the first time this season.
 

East Texas A&M faces Abilene Christian on September 22 at home to close out non-conference play at 6:30 p.m. The two teams play each other for the 57th time and first time in Commerce since 2012. The Lions came out on top in a five-set thriller during the 2023 season in Abilene.
 

The 18-match Southland Conference schedule remains the same for the Lions as announced earlier this year. East Texas A&M plays host to HCU (Sept. 25), UIW (Sept. 27), Nicholls (Oct. 15), SFA (Oct. 23), Lamar (Oct. 25), Northwestern State (Nov. 8), A&M-Corpus Christi (Nov. 13), UTRGV (Nov. 15), while facing A&M-Corpus Christi (Oct. 2), UTRGV (Oct. 4), New Orleans (Oct. 9), Southeastern (Oct. 11), McNeese (Oct. 18), HCU (Oct. 30), UIW (Nov. 1), and Northwestern State (Nov. 6) on the road.
 
Morales added, “our conference schedule is a better one for everyone  with the travel and logistics from the last two years. This will be better for our student-athletes. It will hit a little more extra this year as we are now eligible for the NCAA tournament and that has been the standard from the beginning.”
 
For the first time since 2019, the Lions will play the conference tournament at home as they host the eight-team SLC Tournament on Nov. 21-23 in the Field House.
 
The winner of the SLC Tournament receives an automatic bid into the NCAA Tournament, which begins on December 4, and Championship Weekend is scheduled for December 18-21 in Kansas City, Missouri.
 
More information on season and single match tickets for the Lions will be released in the coming days.

Ally Sarussi had quite a senior sendoff with the Washington University women’s track and field team as part of its 2024 NCAA Division III national team champion. The 2020 Lyons Township High School graduate, however, still had one season of eligibility and a graduate degree to pursue. 

“I was going to take a gap year, but then I kind of thought I have an opportunity to run another year,” Sarussi said. “I love track a lot so I might as well take the opportunity while getting my degree.”

As a grad student this spring, Sarussi had her best individual season for the University of Illinois Chicago. She was named the team’s Most Valuable Performer and athletic department’s Female Newcomer of the Year for non-freshmen after qualifying for the NCAA Division I postseason in the 1,500-meter run following her lifetime-best, school-record 4:19.35 at the Missouri Valley Conference Meet.

MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — Middle Tennessee Athletics is saddened to learn of the passing of former Blue Raider Volleyball coach Matt Peck. The seasoned coach spent 12 seasons in Murfreesboro, where he helped build the Blue Raiders into a championship program.

“There are a lot of banners hanging in AMG that are due to Matt and his staff’s efforts,” said MTSU Director of Athletics Chris Massaro. “We reached the pinnacle in volleyball by going to the Sweet 16, which is one of the deepest postseason runs any of our teams have had in an NCAA Tournament.

“Under his leadership, we were nationally competitive with anybody we were on the court with, and to have six consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances speaks volumes to the kind of coach he was, the kind of players that were here and the kind of success we had at that time. My thoughts and prayers are with those who are close to Matt, his family, his friends, and all the former players who helped raise a lot of those banners.”

Peck’s accomplishments in over 20 years of coaching were long and distinguished. After a three-year stint as a Graduate Assistant with the Purdue men’s volleyball team, Peck became the head coach at Wayne State University in 1987, compiling a 231-135 record and two NCAA Tournament appearances over seven seasons. He was then hired as the head coach at the University of North Alabama in 1995 where he proceeded to build a Division II powerhouse. Over nine seasons at UNA, Peck accumulated a record of 312-61, securing eight straight NCAA Tournament appearances, four Elite Eights, two Final Fours and the 2003 NCAA Division II National Championship.

In 2004, Peck took over as the leader of the Blue Raider volleyball program. He went on to become the winningest coach in program history with a 208-141 record across 12 seasons. During his tenure at Middle Tennessee, Peck led Middle Tennessee volleyball to six consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances, an NCAA Sweet 16, four Sun Belt Tournament Championships and two Sun Belt regular season titles.

After his time at MTSU, Peck continued to grow the game of volleyball coaching at the club level, where he inspired younger generations and shared his love for the game.

Water polo is a demanding sport that requires lots of sacrifice and dedication. For student-athletes, balancing academics and intense training makes it even more challenging.

Maurizio Mirarchi, coach of the Italian women’s team at the Rhine Ruhr 2025 FISU World University Games, understands this well. He puts his heart into mentoring his young players, helping them grow not only as competitors but as the champions of tomorrow.

Coach Mirarchi made a clear decision: to train student-athletes, both at the international level and in the Italian championship, and he stands firmly by his choice.

“There’s no trick, you just have to make sacrifices, train and try to give your best in every session. If you train well, matches are a consequence of training. The trick is simply to do your best during the week,” he said, speaking about the challenges of coaching such a young group.

One of the most important aspects for Mirarchi is keeping his pupils fully focused, especially in the most difficult moments, when emotions and tension can weigh heavily on young minds.

“I always ask for their maximum attention. I try to explain the various situations that arise in the match to make sure they have it. It’s not easy, because there are emotions, there is the moment, there is the match. We try to make sure that things are explained well in some moments of the match.”

The hardest part of being a student-athlete in Mirarchi’s opinion? “They have to balance their work and their student activities. It’s a big commitment for them. This is a sport that requires a lot of sacrifice, so they are really good at managing both things in the best way possible.”

A stepping stone to the future

Rhine-Ruhr 2025 represents an enriching and valuable experience for the Italian coach.

“It’s a good level, a good high level. There are good teams, from Australia, Germany, Japan, us, Hungary, the United States,” he said, about the calibre of different delegations competing in the tournament.

Looking ahead to the future of his young protégés, Mirarchi sees the FISU Games as a key benchmark for preparing them for the next level of competition, such as the Olympics or the World Championships.

“The university team is always a tank, where the national team can take on the athletes. So, it’s very important to do it well, to do the competition seriously, because then it can be a showcase to continue later,” he affirmed.

His vision is long-term and clear: these kinds of tournaments are not an end, but a means to grow.

“I took this job because we work in perspective. So, we try to make these girls grow, making them do as many experiences as possible. And this is a good experience for them, because they are all young girls. So, I hope that over the years they can play even more important competitions.”

Looking to match their silver-medal finish from Chengdu 2023, the Italian women reached the semifinals on Tuesday, 22 July with a dominant 20-5 win against Türkiye. Mirarchi’s side will face the United States on Thursday for a spot in Saturday’s gold-medal match.

The Young Reporters Programme exemplifies FISU’s commitment to more than sports competitions. At every FISU World University Games, a group of talented aspiring sports journalists are chosen to cover the competition.

Cameron Brink Reacts to Post Roasting Caitlin Clark, Paige Bueckers’s Viral Outfits

One needs to look no further than the WNBA to witness some of the most fashionable dressers in the sports world, as the league’s stars strut through tunnels day after day showing off jaw-dropping looks and oozing effortless style.

Most players—to use the popular Gen Z term—slay with their pregame outfits. But on the few occasions they don’t, fans will be ready to roast any given player at a moment’s notice—even if that player is one of the rising faces of the W.

Caitlin Clark and Paige Bueckers, the No. 1 picks of the WNBA Draft in the last two years, were recently grouped together in a funny social media post concerning their fits ahead of the Indiana Fever-Dallas Wings game on July 13.

Clark donned a baggy gray power suit, while Bueckers wore a green and yellow striped sweater with jeans. One fan on X (formerly known as Twitter) posted a hilarious comment on the stars’ contrasting looks: “Someone said the mom headed to the superintendent’s office, and her 13-year-old kid who got in trouble.”

Los Angeles Sparks’ Cameron Brink later got in on the fun and dished on her peers’ fashion tastes on the Straight to Cam podcast this week.

“I mean… it’s pretty accurate,” Brink said. “Does [Caitlin] look very boss woman chic clean? Yes. Does Paige look very streetwear cool girl? Yes. But seeing those side by side, it’s pretty funny.

“I think they both stay very true to those aesthetics, like Caitlin’s usually in her Prada, she’s a little more buttoned up. I guess Paige, she’ll wear suits [too].”

While Clark and Bueckers usually let their on-court play do the talking, their comically different fits clearly served as a conversation starter among the WNBA community. The two franchise stars will meet again on Aug. 1 and 12, after Clark’s Fever defeated Bueckers’s Wings in the pair’s first professional matchup against each other on July 13.
