Following a brief respite from competition, the Stetson volleyball team is set for a sprint to the finish.

The Hatters will play a stretch of four games in eight days to conclude the regular season, beginning with Sunday's Senior Day match against Kennesaw State.  The contest will be played at the Edmunds Center with first serve coming at 1 p.m.  The volleyball program will honor seniors Brianna Schmid, Emily DeStaffino and Eva Deisa prior to the match.

Last time out, Stetson saw its record eight-game win streak halted at the hands of the FGCU Eagles.  The Hatters have not played since that match on Nov. 1.

Currently in fifth place in the ASUN standings, Stetson will finish the regular season with home matches against Kennesaw State (Sunday) and Liberty (Tuesday), followed by road contests at North Alabama (Nov. 15) and NJIT (Nov. 17).

The Hatters (10-12, 7-5 ASUN) need one victory to clinch a berth in the ASUN Championship, which will be played Nov. 21-23 in Fort Myers.  Two more victories would give Stetson its first winning season in conference play since 2002.

All tickets are general admission and can be purchased online (GoHatters.com/tix) or at the Stetson ticket office for $5.  Stetson students, faculty, and staff are admitted free with an ID.

Live Coverage
Sunday's match will be broadcast on ESPN+.  Fans can also follow along with live stats and Twitter (@StetsonVB).

All-Time Series
Kennesaw State leads the all-time series 15-7 over Stetson, but the Hatters defeated the Owls 3-0 last season in DeLand.  Riley Nieporte led the way with 13 kills.  KSU defeated Stetson 3-0 earlier this season in Kennesaw.

Win Streak 
The Hatters' eight-game win streak may be over, but the team has won five home matches in a row, including four straight at the Edmunds Center (and one at DeLand High School).

Up Next
Stetson hosts Liberty at 6 p.m. Tuesday night.
