Coach
Jenifer Bahner's first season as Drury Volleyball coach will come to a close this weekend when the Panthers look to finish strong with tests at William Jewell (7 p.m. Friday) in Liberty and at Rockhurst (3 p.m. Saturday) in Kansas City for Great Lakes Valley Conference action.
The Panthers will take marks of 15-10 overall and 6-10 in the GLVC into their matches at Jewell (3-23, 1-15) and Rockhurst (23-3, 14-2). Drury defeated Rockhurst 3-1 and the Cardinals 3-0 when they visited Springfield in late September.
At 15-10, Drury has secured its first winning season in the last three years, after the Panthers finished 16-17 in 2012 and 15-16 in 2013. DU enters the final weekend having won seven of its last nine matches, including a 3-2 triumph at Wisconsin Parkside last Sunday for a split of their GLVC road trip to there and Lewis.
