2 2 TEXAS TECH GAME NOTES THE SERIES K-State leads the all-time series at 28-8 and has claimed eacthe last 14 meetings. The Wildcats have not lost to the Red Raiders since Head Coach Suzie Fritz is 20-2 against Tech. THE COACHES Kansas State: Suzie Fritz (Florida Atlantic 94) is in her 12th year as head coach of the Wildcats she is the winningest coach in the program s history with 234 wins and has taken the team to eight NCAA Tournaments, including three runs to the Regional Semifinals. Texas Tech: Don Flora (La Verne 90) is in his second year leading the Red Raiders where he is looking to build Tech back into a winning program. The Red Raiders have not had a winning season since 2001 and Flora had his team in his first year in Lubbock. SCOUTING THE RED RAIDERS Texas Tech has the task of replacing four-year star Amanda Dowdy who ended her career ranked second in kills in school history. The kills this season have been spread around to two main threats on offense in Emily Ehrle and Miara Cave. Ehrle is a freshman outside hitter who has stepped up early for the Red Raiders averaging 2.49 kills per set overall and 2.12 in conference play. Cave is a senior right side averaging 2.62 kills in Big 12 action to lead the team. Tech s roster is young with nine freshman on the team and seven sophomores. The Red Raiders have just four upperclassmen on the team with two seniors in Cave and defensive specialist Tory Vaughan. The Red Raiders dropped their most recent conference match to the Oklahoma Sooners at home on Wednesday night. The Sooners got the win in three sets, but all three were tight contests. With a young roster, Tech went to the bench and 15 players saw action in the loss with valuable experience being gained. Two setters see action from the Red Raiders with freshman Emily Ruetter getting the majority of the assists. Sophomore Nicole Hragyil also is contributing for Tech at the position. Tech is 1-6 in conference play this year with a win over West Virginia on the road last weekend. The Red Raiders hit.236 as a team in the victory with Cave posting 15 kills on a.303 clip herself. Meghan Stacy tallied 10 kills off the bench and hit.296.

K-State had three players reach double digits in kills, and all three of those players hit at least.400 for the match. The combination of Kaitlynn Pelger, Lilla Porubek and Alex Muff provided the firepower for the victory and did so in commanding fashion. Pelger led the way with 12 kills on a.476 hitting clip. Porubek tallied 11 kills on.409 hitting and Muff added 10 kills to go with her hitting percentage of.400. All three had just two errors apiece. It is the first time since playing South Dakota State at the Dr. Mary Jo Wynn Invitational (Sept. 10) last year the Wildcats had this type of performance. Against the Jack Rabbits, it was Pelger (15K,.667), Porubek (16K,.433) and Dakota Kaufman (11K,.500) that provided the spark. WINNING FORMULA The NCAA released its updated RPI rankings on Monday, and the computers continue to love the K-State Wildcats. With a 17-2 record entering this week the Wildcats stay at No. 9 in the latest RPI report. Similar to basketball, the NCAA selection committee uses RPI as a major factor in determining at-large bids and seeding for the NCAA Tournament. The selection committee only seeds the top 16 teams for the postseason, with regional sites hosted at Purdue, Texas, Cal and in Omaha.

5 TEXAS TECH GAME NOTES 5 CHALLENGE ACCEPTED When the K-State volleyball team visited its partner unit at Fort Riley in May, Col. Mike Morgan from the Combat Aviation Brigade presented Head Coach Suzie Fritz with a Challenge Coin. The Challenge Coin is a small coin or medallion with a unit s insignia or emblem and is traditionally presented by unit commanders in recognition of special achievement by a member of the unit. They also are exchanged in recognition of visits to an organization or unit. The Challenge Coin also can represent the core values of the unit. Fritz has taken the Challenge Coin and applied it to her Wildcats for the 2012 season. At a preseason dinner, Fritz presented each player, coach and members of the support staff with a K-State Volleyball Challenge Coin. One side displays the K-State Volleyball logo and the reserve lists the core values of the program: Commitment & Work Ethic Character Communication & Trust Confidence & Belief Competitiveness Everyone who received a Challenge Coin at the dinner was given the challenge to have the coin with them at all times, except practices, to build morale and embody the five core values of K-State Volleyball. Col. Morgan spoke to the team again when he an some members of the CAB visited the Wildcats during the team s training camp in August, and Fritz presented Morgan with his own K-State Volleyball Challenge Coin. PIECING IT TOGETHER Head Coach Suzie Fritz has found another unique way to teach her Wildcats the importance of being a part of something bigger than yourself in the 2012 season. This year Fritz has incorporated a puzzle into daily practices and the Wildcats are buying into the concept. Every day a box of puzzle pieces sits on the table at practice. When the day is done, each Wildcat can take three pieces out of the box and present them to their teammates for doing something that displayed selflessness, being a good teammate and represents the five core values of K-State Volleyball. The Wildcats must write down who they are presenting a pice of the puzzle to and why. They must then tell their teammate why they deserve a piece of the puzzle when they present it to them as a way to thank them for being an important part of the team. The puzzle will be completed later in the season and will reveal something to the players that only the coaching staff knows. 369 OF 1008 PIECES REMAINING end. With K-State s No. 14-ranked volleyball team at 17-2, the Wildcats join only seven other schools that can boast the same accomplishment so far with their football and volleyball teams ranked. The Wildcats are the lone Big 12 school with to have football and volleyball both ranked as Texas and Iowa State both saw their football teams drop out of the Top 25 this week. The Pac-12 has three schools on the list. Oregon is the only school with both teams in the Top 10 as football is No. 2 and volleyball drops to No. 5 this week. CLEANING UP K-State currently stands at 17-3, but the way the Wildcats have been winning is just as impressive. A total of 14 of those victories have been 3-0 sweeps of their opponents. That total already far surpasses last year s eight sweeps and is one shy of the most by any team in the nation so far. Western Kentucky leads NCAA Division I with 15 sweeps. No. 1 Penn State, No. 8 Texas, No. 16 BYU and Towson are right behind K-State with victories. Six other teams have 12 sweeps, including some of the best teams in the country like No. 3 Oregon, No. 5 Washington and No. 7 USC. The 3-0 sweeps have come against strong competition as well, including then-no. 22 Iowa State. The Wildcats swept Creighton on the Bluejays home court while the team was receiving votes in the poll. K-State swept 2011 NCAA Tournament teams Missouri State and Tulsa, as well as No. 20 Dayton. Some opponents K-State swept earlier in the season have responded with signature wins as well. Oregon State defeated No. 2 Penn State in five sets, and Syracuse bested No. 23 Iowa State on the Cyclones home floor, and St. Mary s has defeated two ranked opponents in then-no. 18 Pepperdine and No. 11 BYU.

JOHN S TEXAS A&M MISSOURI PACKED WITH PURPLE K-State fans have traditionally made Ahearn Field House one of the greatest venues and atmospheres in the Big 12 Conference. In 2011, fans packed Ahearn with purple averaging more than 1,500 per match and ranked No. 22 in the nation. The 2012 season as been even better with the Wildcats ranked No. 20 in this week s NCAA attendance report, averaging more than 1,800 per match. More than 3,000 fans packed the stands last Saturday as the Wildcats played host to No. 9 Texas. It marked the first crowd to crack the 3,000 mark since posting two such attendance marks during the 2010 season. This season started off strong with more than 2,700 fans in attendance for the season opener against UC Irvine and following the match Suzie Fritz again praised the fans and said K-State is one of the best atmospheres to play in all the country. For the final match of opening weekend more than 1,500 faithful came out to watch a come-from-behind victory over Oregon State to average 1,755 for the three matches at the Varney s Invitational. Conference play has seen some of the largest crowds of the season at Ahearn Field House. In the conference home opener 1,912 fans came to Ahearn Field House to welcome West Virginia to the Big 12 Conference. Then against No. 22 Iowa State, fans filled the stands with 2,060 at Ahearn. With an attendance of 3,044 against Texas, K-State fans are averaging nearly 2,400 strong during Big 12 matches. This year more renovations have been done to Ahearn Field House to enhance the atmosphere. The entire balcony seating area has been painted purple and white. The railings have all been converted from cream to white and the bleachers are now K-State Purple instead of brown. Along with the seating renovations and Powercat banner installed over the previous two years, Ahearn Field House is now truly home to the Purple and the White. A new media center has been installed as well for journalists to cover matches for their respective media outlets. Redesigned banners have been hung in Ahearn as well replacing the older ones. The traditional style banners commemorate the winning tradition at K-State, displaying all 13 NCAA Tournament banners, All-Americans and the 2003 Big 12 Championship. PELGER EARNS SECOND BIG 12 PLAYER OF THE WEEK K-State middle blocker Kaitlynn Pelger continues to prove she is one of the best players in the Big 12 Conference as she helped lead the Wildcats to a pair of wins two weeks ago and was named Big 12 Conference Offensive Player of the Week for the second time this season. Pelger tallied 13 kills on 20 swings and only one error to hit.600 against new Big 12 member West Virginia. She also added nine digs to just miss out on her fifth double-double of the season as the Wildcats swept the Mountaineers 25-8, 25-19, She did get that elusive double-double in Saturday s match as the Wildcats posted their first road win at Baylor since K-State won the match 3-1 and Pelger took control blasting out 23 kills for a new season-high, surpassing her previous best of 22 in a five set match. The junior added 12 digs from the back row as she remains one of the few middle blockers in the country to play all six rotations, and she hit.321 for the match. On the week Pelger averaged an impressive 5.14 kills per set while hitting.397. She also contributed 3.00 digs

In conference play she is leading kills per set by nearly half a kill. SINGLED OUT The Wildcats did something they have never accomplished in a sweep over West Virginia two weeks ago. K- State held the Mountaineers to just eight points in the first set. It is the first time in the rally scoring era K- State has kept a conference foe from scoring double digits in a non-fifth set. It also is the first time the Wildcats have held any opponent under 10 points in rally scoring since Cornell in In the 25-8 win to open the match, the Wildcats went on a 12-0 run while Donahue went on a long serving run, which included a pair of back-to-back aces. After West Virginia was able to stop the run, the Mountaineers found themselves down West Virginia hit in the set as the Wildcats stuffed three blocks and the Mountaineers had four more unforced attack errors in addition to a pair of service errors. PELGER HONORED BY AVCA After helping the K-State volleyball team win the Golden Hurricane Classic and defeat to ranked teams two weeks ago at Tulsa, junior middle blocker Kaitlynn Pelger was selected as the AVCA National Player of the Week. Pelger averaged 4.18 kills while hitting.440 in victories over Tulsa, No. 10 Minnesota and No. 20 Dayton to earn the award. In addition to her kills and hit hitting percentage for the weekend, Pelger added 2.45 digs per set and 1.09 blocks and her five aces led the team. Pelger is the first Wildcat since Dawn Cady in 1999 to receive the nation s top player of the week award after Cady guided the Wildcats to their first-ever win over Nebraska. This is the fourth AVCA National Player of the Week in K-State history with Kate DeClerk winning it in 1995 and again in PELGER NAMED BIG 12 PLAYER OF THE WEEK K-State won what was tabbed by many as the top tournament in the nation that week on the schedule claiming three wins at the Golden Hurricane Classic in Tulsa, and junior middle blocker Kaitlynn Pelger walked away with tournament MVP honors and was also recognized by the Big 12 Conference as the Offensive Player of the Week. Pelger played a major role in defeating ranked opponents in back-to-back matches for the first time in school history as the Wildcats bested No. 10 Minnesota in five sets on and followed that win with a victory over No. 20 Dayton at arguably the top nonconference tournament in the nation that week. Pelger opened the tournament with a double-double as she posted 11 kills on a.455 hitting percentage to go with 12 digs against Tulsa. She also was in on five block assists as the Wildcats stuffed Tulsa for 14.5 blocks, the fourth straight match K-State posted 10 or more blocks. Against the Golden Gophers, Pelger played a huge role down the stretch as she led the team with 16 kills. She also added nine digs, five blocks and three aces. Four of her kills came in the shortened fifth set alone as K- State hit an amazing.818 as a team with nine kills and no errors to dominate Minnesota in the deciding set. To close the weekend, Pelger put on a show against No. 20 Dayton. The middle blocker pounded out 19 kills and hit an impressive.654 to roll over the Flyers. Pelger opened the match with eight kills on nine swings in the first set. Against Dayton, Pelger also had six digs, two blocks and a pair of aces. For the weekend she averaged 4.18 kills per set while hitting.440 against some of the top teams in the nation. Pelger added 2.45 digs and 1.09 blocks and her five aces led the team. This is Pelger s first Big 12 Player of the Week award this season and her fourth overall, receiving Rookie of the Week once in 2010 and Offensive Player of the Week twice last season. Kristen Hahn earned Defensive Player of the Week for Iowa State as the libero helped the Cyclones defeat No. 1 Nebraska on Saturday, and Nikki Attea was named the Rookie of the Week for West Virginia.
