- Among the GLIAC's leaders, Kreiger is second in kills (163), second in attack attempts (501) and tied for seventh in kills per set (3.70).
- Groves has now reached double-figure kills in four-straight matches, something she did just three times in the 35 matches she played before that streak.
- Herr broke a three-match skid in which she was held to single-digit kills after doing so seven times in her first eight matches of the season.
- What a stretch for the freshman setter, Odeen, who racked up at least 30 assists for the sixth-consecutive match, a feat accomplished just once in her first six outings.
- Saturday also marked the first-career double-double for the rookie as she dug out a career-high 12 attacks to go with her 55 assists, another career high.
- DeJonge and Shellenbarger, the team's two seniors, were recognized prior to the start of the match in what could be the final home match of their careers.
