CHARLESTON, S.C.– The Charleston Southern volleyball team will continue their six game home stand this weekend with a pair of matches against Campbell and Hampton.

The Buccaneers are currently fifth in the conference after knocking off Radford last Friday in five sets. Their most recent result comes as a loss at the hands of top ranked High Point to fall to 2-3 in conference play. CSU is currently ranked first in the Big South in total blocks and 81st in the nation as listed by the NCAA. 

I'm proud of the way we battled against Radford. We have been on the road for the majority of our season and our senior leaders really wanted to win that one. We didn't hit on all cylinders but our heart and soul is evident. I'm anxious for us to reach our full potential.
