If there is one team in the Tri-City area rich in experience, it’s probably the Embry-Riddle volleyball team. While they lost three key players last year in Katie Rolle, Dalia Haase, and Lily Figgins, the Lady Eagles return a dozen players to the roster for 2025.
This includes Emma Barber, who posted 232 kills and 263 digs last season. Also back in the front row are Alexsandra Rodriguez, who tallied 242 kills last year, and Hannah Clear, who notched 135 kills and 60 blocks in 2024.
Defense also looks to be strong for Riddle with Hie Loui, who made 249 digs last year, Sydney Sniffen, who garnered 166 digs in 2024, and Alexis Creager, who put up 113 digs last season.
Embry-Riddle participates in a scrimmage at Ottawa University tomorrow. They open the season for real next Friday at the Our Lady of the Lake Tournament.
