Lauren Bohlen, Tayler Gray and Haley Neisler – the three senior leaders for the 2013 Bearkat volleyball team – will be making their final appearances at Bernard G. Johnson Coliseum Saturday morning.
Sam Houston State plays host to Nicholls State Saturday at 11 a.m. The contributions of the trio will be recognized in a special pregame ceremony Saturday.
Bohlen, Gray and Neisler have been part of four Bearkat teams that have rolled up 70 victories during the past four years, the most wins by any group of seniors since 1997. The three seniors each played important roles on last year's Southland Conference championship squad, the program's first title in more than a decade.
They have been members of SHSU squads that have qualified for the league's post-season tournament each of their four years.
With three matches left in the regular season, the Bearkats stand in third place in the 2013 Southland race.
Central Arkansas, 23-3 on the year, is unbeaten in league action to hold down first place. Northwestern State (16-10, 12-2) stands in second place.
Sam Houston (15-9, 12-4) is in third. Nicholls (5-21, 2-14) stands 13th.
