Nov. 24, 2015

THE FLATS – The Georgia Tech volleyball team (18-12, 9-9 ACC) wraps up its 2015 regular season with home midweek matches against No. 20 Florida State and Miami. The Yellow Jackets and Seminoles (22-7, 15-3) square off on Wednesday at 3 p.m., and Georgia Tech takes on the Hurricanes (19-9, 12-6) on Friday at 1 p.m. Both matches will air on ESPN3.

Parking
Fans can park in the McCamish Lot only on Wednesday, and are encouraged to park in the McCamish and East O’Keefe Lots for Friday’s match.

Promotions
Georgia Tech volleyball is raffling off GT vs. UGA Football tickets, along with MBB and WBB tickets at both matches this week. Fans that bring a new toy donation receive free admission, and all fans receive $2 admission on Black Friday.

Yellow Jackets 2.0
– If the past is any indication, head coach Michelle Collier has a penchant for making quick improvements from year one to year two.
– At Jacksonville, she took the Dolphins from a 10-24, 7-11 conference record in her first year to a 30-4, 16-2 record in A-Sun play, and earned the school’s first NCAA Tournament berth in nine years.
– Now, still with a pair matches left in 2015, Tech has surpassed its win total from last season (18) and its ACC wins from a year ago (9).

The Numbers Game
Perhaps more impressive is that fact that the Yellow Jackets are putting up better numbers than seen in recent years.
  – London Ackermann has 459 digs, which are the most in a season since Jordan McCullers tallied 487 in 2010.
  – Sydney Wilson’s 118 total blocks are the most by a Yellow Jacket since Annie Czarnecki had 123 in 2012.
  – Teegan Van Gunst’s 443 kills are the most by a Jacket since Monique Mead tallied 459 in the 2012 season.
