OXFORD, Miss. – The Ole Miss volleyball program returns to action on Saturday afternoon, as the Rebels host Southern Miss for a 2 p.m., exhibition match at the Gillom Athletics Performance Center.
The free-to-attend match serves as the final tune-up before the Rebels face off against Arkansas State on Friday, August 29 at 2 p.m. CT, to open the regular season, in Atlanta. Ga.
Fans are encouraged to wear powder and join the Rebels in Gillom for the first time this season. 2025 schedule posters will be given away and a post-match autograph session will also occur.
The Rebels return several notable stars from last season's historic roster, including AVCA All-South Region honoree Mokihana Tufono, the 2024 SEC Scholar-Athlete of the Year, Cammy Niesen and the leading offensive returner Shayla Meyer.
Joining them are dynamic transfers and freshmen, including All-Big Sky hitter Gabi Placide and former Alabama middle blocker starter Jordyn Towns.
Head coach Bre Henry leads the program in her third full season at the helm, on the heels of the program's first ever NCAA Tournament victory last season.
