Kansas State volleyball kicked off Year 2 of the Jason Mansfield era on the road over the weekend, dropping two matches against No. 8 Purdue and UC Davis before salvaging a win against UMBC at Purdue’s Stacey Clark Classic.
“I’m really happy with our bounce back,” Mansfield said in a written statement after the finale. “Playing three matches in three days is tough, and it’s the only time we’ll do that all year. We had a solid practice the day before leaving, so we essentially played four long days of volleyball. I’m just really proud of how we showed up, competed against a strong team, and played clean volleyball. That’s what good teams do.”
